Enhanced Therapy Using gold / cobalt ferrite nanoparticles: Synergistic Photothermal-Magnetomechanical Effect
The study investigated the effectiveness of composite gold-cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (Au@CFO) in photothermal and magnetomechanical therapy on human hepatocarcinoma Huh7 cells. The nanoparticles demonstrated significant activity during in vitro photothermal therapy and exhibited inherent cytotoxicity, reducing cell viability ...
Perspectives of using of composite nano- and micromaterials as agents for biomedical applications
... biomedicine, bionanotechnology, and nanomedicine. In this context, there is a need to assess the toxicological characteristics of materials as well as develop methods for their therapeutic use. A study was conducted to evaluate the cytotoxicity of composite nanoparticles (nanostars) and micromaterials (microdisks) against Jurkat, Huh7 cell cultures, and human mononuclear cells in in vitro conditions. A concentration-dependent cytotoxic effect of nanoparticles was observed. At the same time, microdisks did ...
