A Novel Biodegradable System Based on BSA/PCL Core-shell Structured Nanofibers for Controlled Drug Delivery

Feng Y., Zhang Y.Z., Yong T., Ramakrishna S., National University of Singapore, SG

Electrospun core-shell structured nanofibers encapsulating BSA were explored as a potential drug delivery model in a biological system in present study. These nanofibers were prepared by coaxial electrospinning method with poly (caprolactone) (PCL) as the [...]

Optimal Design of Laser Surgery for Cancer Treatment Through Nanoshell-Mediated Hyperthermia Therapy

Feng Y., Rylander N., Bass J., Oden J.T., Diller K., The University of Texas at Austin, US

Recent development of nanoparticle technology and its application in hyperthermia therapies makes it possible to consider optimal control of the temperature field and thermal energy delivered to the tumor region with minimal destruction of surrounding [...]
