Download or read book Advanced Gold Silver and Iron Nanomaterials for Cancer Theranostics written by Ahmad Rasheed and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, gold and iron nanomaterials have proved their efficiency for cancer therapy. Several kind of nanostructures can treat cancer tumor.In this book, we summarized the new advances of nanomaterials for cancer therapy. For example, photothermal therapy represents a non-invasive therapeutic tool to eradicate cancer tumor with minimum toxic effects. Gold nanomaterials are efficient to passively target and deliver photothermal agents to the cancer tumor. Through surface plasma resonance, gold nanomaterials including nanorods, nanostars, nanoflowers, nanocages and nanoshells exhibited strong NIR absorption and are widely utilized during photothermal ablative therapy of cancer.In near future, these probes can serve society to eradicate cancer. Currently, researchers have devoted their attention to minimize toxicity of photothermal agents using modified probe design. By developing this noninvasive cancer therapy, expectations to minimize toxicity of cancer treatment may become reality sooner. In addition, DNA silver nanoclusters can detect several biomarkers like small molecules, DNA, RNA, and metals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the start of 2020, the wrath of pandemic challenged the scientific community to develop more advanced drug delivery approaches for biomedical applications, endowing conventional drugs with additional therapeutic benefits and minimum side effects. Although significant advancements have been done in the field of drug delivery, there is a need to focus towards strategizing novel and improved drug delivery systems that should be convenient and cost-effective to the patients, and simultaneously they should also provide financial benefits to pharmaceutical companies. Controlled drug delivery technology offers ample opportunities and scope for improvising the therapeutic efficacy of drugs via optimizing the drug release rate and time. For this endeavour, smart nanomaterials have served as remarkable candidates for biomedical applications, owing to their ground-breaking properties and design. The development of such nanomaterials requires a broad knowledge related to their physio-chemical properties, molecular structure, mechanisms by which the nanomaterials interact with the cells, and methods by which drugs are released at the site of action. This knowledge must also be allied with the knowledge of signaling crosstalk mechanisms that are modulated by the nanomaterial-drugs composite. It can be anticipated that these emerging drug delivery technologies can facilitate the world to successfully encounter such pandemic outbursts in the future in a cost-effective and time-effective manner. The chapters in this book deal with the advanced technologies and approaches that can benefit advanced students, researchers, and industry experts in developing smart and intelligent nanomaterials for future biomedical applications, and development, manufacturing, and commercialization for controlled and targeted drug delivery.
