This project explores the use of gold nanoparticles and vapor nanobubbles for targeted delivery of therapeutic agents in cells and biofilms. It aims to enhance treatment efficacy in cancer research and improve imaging techniques for better visualization of cellular processes.
Lasers have found widespread application in medicine, such as for photothermal therapy.
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), are often used as enhancers of the photothermal effect since they can efficiently absorb laser light and convert it into thermal energy.
When absorbing intense nano- or picosecond laser pulses, AuNPs can become extremely hot and water vapor nanobubbles (VNBs) can emerge around these particles in tissue. A VNB will expand up to several hundred nm until the thermal energy from the Au…
