pH-Responsive Au@Pd bimetallic core–shell nanorods for enhanced synergistic targeted photothermal-augmented nanocatalytic therapy in the second near-infrared window

Abstract

Nanotheranostic agents based on plasmonic nanostructures with their resonance wavelengths located in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II) have gained significant attention in profound tumor photothermal therapy. However, the modulation of...

Ceramic Open Cell Foams Featuring Plasmonic Hybrid Metal Nanoparticles for In Situ SERS Monitoring of Catalytic Reactions

“…Moreover, the plasmonic nature of core-shell particles in combination with the inert and temperature-stable ceramic matrix could be utilized for high-temperature reactions up to 600 °C, [2,[74][75][76] while localized plasmonic heating via the photothermal effect could be applied for photothermal catalysis or similar methods. [77][78][79][80]…”

Atomically Site Synergistic Effects of Dual-Atom Nanozyme Enhances Peroxidase-like Properties

“… , All samples are then subjected to reaction kinetic curve studies within 20 min to assess catalytic activity. Fe 1 -NC exhibited the most excellent POD-like catalytic performance among all SAzymes (Figure A), proving that the Fe-N 4 active site center could dominate the catalytic activity. − Of note, as revealed by the kinetic results of 13 DAzymes (Figure B), the Fe-series DAzymes have better catalytic performance. The absorbances at 20 min of Fe 1 Co 1 -NC, Fe 1 Cu 1 -NC, Fe 1 Mn 1 -NC, Fe 1 Ni 1 -NC, and Fe 1 Ru 1 -NC are 1.1791, 0.6547, 0.5247, 0.3454, and 0.3087, respectively, which are 4.5 times, 2.5 times, 2.0 times, 1.3 times, and 1.2 times higher than that of Fe 1 -NC (0.2611).…”

Iron selenide nanorods for light-activated anticancer and catalytic applications

“…One of the most important uses of these nanoparticles is in photothermal therapy (PTT), which is a non-invasive cancer therapy that utilizes visible or near infrared (NIR) photoabsorbers that transform light energy into heat for killing tumour cells. [11][12][13] Cancer is one of the world's most significant public health issues and a major cause of mortality. 14 As conventional chemo-radiation therapies for cancer are associated with significant side effects, more localized therapies such as PTT are emerging as attractive alternatives.…”
