Thermal Analysis Measurement of Gold Nanoparticle Interactions With Cell and Biomaterial Available to Purchase

The rapidly evolving field of nanomedicine focuses on the design and application of multi-functional nanoparticles for diagnosis and treatment of diseases especially cancer¹. Many of these nanomaterials are designed to serve as drug delivery or image contrast agents, or even to generate heat for hyperthermia (i.e. treatment), of cancer. Heating examples include gold nanoparticles (GNPs) for photothermal therapy³, and superparamagnetic nanoparticles for magnetic fluid hyperthermia⁴.
