Breast cancer cells targeted, then burned, by gold-filled silicon wafers
By shining infrared light on specially designed, gold-filled silicon wafers, scientists at The Methodist Hospital Research Institute have successfully targeted and burned breast cancer cells. If the technology is shown to work in human clinical trials, it could...
Remote controlled nanoparticles deliver the goods
Iron oxide nanoparticles can be used to provide a local source of heating in a thermoresponsive sol–gel copolymer solution.
Novel Gold-Nanoparticle-Based Assay for Understanding Alzheimer’s Disease
A novel AuNP-based assay highly sensitive to acetylcholinesterase (AChE) may detect a risk or a preclinical stage of Alzheimer’s disease.
Cooking Cancer with Lasers and Gold
A nanostructure of silicon and gold is 4 times as effective at killing cancer cells in cell culture experiments as gold nanoshells alone.
