Applications of Nanoparticles in Targeted Drug Delivery and Photothermal Therapy
By Fortis Life SciencesTherapeutic agents and photothermal therapies with nanomaterial capabilities have grown in popularity over the last ten years. Among other features, these particles offer the ability to be tracked within the body, deliver a specific compound at a controlled rate, target a particular location, and remotely kill cells once in place.
This white paper highlights recent publications describing the use of silica and metal-based nanoparticles to improve therapeutic delivery and aid the development of novel photothermal treatments.
