The evaluation of heat production from gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) irradiated with radiofrequency (RF) energy has been problematic due to Joule heating their background ionic buffer suspensions. Insights into the physical mechanism nanomaterials under RF excitations must be obtained if they are have applications in fields such as nanoparticle-targeted hyperthermia for cancer therapy. By developing a purification protocol which allows highly-stable and concentrated solutions citrate-capped...
Nanoparticles and their derivatives have engendered significant recent interest. Despite considerable advances in nanofluidic physics, control over nanoparticle diffusive transport, requisite for a host of innovative applications, has yet to be demonstrated. In this study, we performed diffusion experiments negatively positively charged fullerene (dendritic fullerene-1, DF-1, amino fullerene, AC60) 5.7 13 nm silicon nanochannels solutions with different ionic strengths. With demonstrated...
Abstract Highly exfoliated sulfonated graphene sheets (SGSs), an alternative to oxide and derivatives, were synthesized, characterized, applied liver cancer cells in vitro . Cytotoxicity profiles obtained using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, WST-1[2-(4-iodophenyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-5-(2,4-disulfophenyl)-2 H -tetrazolium, lactate dehydrogenase release colorimetric assays. These particles found be non-toxic across the concentration range of 0.1 10 μg/ml....
A [60]fullerene derivative has been synthesised that demonstrates the ability to enter nuclear volume of a variety mammalian cells. This property is unique and not previously observed for other types fullerene derivatives. may have important implications in its use biomedical applications, such as non-viral gene therapy cancer chemotherapy where delivery active agents cell nucleus desired.
The symmetrical, malonodiserinolamide hexa-substituted [60]fullerene, C 60 -ser, is a key water-soluble derivative of interest for the treatment cancer by radiofrequency(RF)-induced hyperthermia due to its biocompatibility, neutral charge, lipophilicity, and ability cross restrictive biological membranes. In aqueous solution which surrounded 24 hydroxyl groups, maintains relatively stable layers closely-bound water molecules (hydration sphere), forms highly dynamic aggregates, sized between...
