Unlike traditional spectrometric methods, which gather data based on the light a sample transmits, reflects, or emits, photothermal spectroscopy focuses on detecting the heat generated through ...
Cancer is one of humanity’s most formidable health challenges, claiming nearly 10 million lives each year, with global cases projected to rise to Cancer is one of humanity’s most formidable health ...
A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2024.240013, discusses a NIR-triggered on-site NO/ROS/RNS nanoreactor. Phototherapy is a safe and effective method for tumor treatment ...
Cancer treatment has come a long way, but many of today's therapies still come with steep costs: not just financial, but physical and emotional too. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy remain vital tools, ...
The team’s new compound can absorb electromagnetic waves in the NIR-II part of the spectrum, where waves can penetrate deeper into human tissue and generate heat, leading to photoacoustic emissions.
A project at South Korea's Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST) has used ultrasound to enhance the effects of photothermal therapy (PTT). Published in Advanced Optical Methods ...
Amino acids, such as tyrosine and tryptophan, are the essential building blocks of proteins. Since these biomolecules have distinct chemical groups on each end and side chain, they have the inherent ...
