Nowadays, many chemical investigations are supported by routine calculations of molecular
structures, reaction energies, barrier heights, and spectroscopic properties. The lion's share …

Photothermal therapy (PTT) has been widely applied in cancer therapy as a result of its non-
invasive, localized treatment and good therapeutic effect. In general, the final therapeutic …

Bacterial infection is one of the top ten leading causes of death globally and the worst killer
in low‐income countries. The overuse of antibiotics leads to ever‐increasing antibiotic …

Recent advances of plasmonic nanoparticles include fascinating developments in the fields
of energy, catalyst chemistry, optics, biotechnology, and medicine. The plasmonic …

The nonradiative conversion of light energy into heat (photothermal therapy, PTT) or sound
energy (photoacoustic imaging, PAI) has been intensively investigated for the treatment and …

Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have generated keen interest among researchers in recent years
due to their excellent physicochemical properties. In general, GNPs are biocompatible …

Theranostic nanoplatforms integrating simultaneously photodynamic therapy (PDT) and
photothermal therapy (PTT) exhibit intrinsic advantages in tumor therapy due to distinct …

Biological molecules such as DNA, proteins, and lipids can be assembled into naturally
existing nanoparticles, such as bacterial viruses (also called bacteriophages or phages) …

We performed an experimental and density functional theory (DFT) investigation of the
reactions of H2O2 with ZrO2, TiO2, and Y2O3. In the experimental study we determined the …

Sepsis is one of the leading causes of death worldwide with high mortality rates and a
pathological complexity hindering early and accurate diagnosis. Today, laboratory culture …
