A rapid development of gadolinium-based nanoparticles is observed due to their attractive
properties as MRI-positive contrast agents. Indeed, they display high relaxivity, adapted …

The recently developed iCELLigence™ real‑time cell analyzer (RTCA) can be used for the
label‑free real‑time monitoring of cancer cell proliferation, viability, invasion and cytotoxicity …

The role of curcumin (diferuloylmethane), for cancer treatment has been an area of growing
interest. However, due to its low absorption, the poor bioavailability of curcumin limits its …

A novel photosensitizer carbazolyl-BODIPY (Cz-BODIPY) with an orthogonal donor–
acceptor structure was developed for photodynamic therapy (PDT). The photosensitizer Cz …

The use of photoactive nanoparticles (NPs) such as zinc oxide (ZnO) and its
nanocomposites has become a promising anticancer strategy. However, ZnO has a low …

Cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide after cardiovascular disease.
Depending on the type and the location of the tumor, several cancer treatments are …

Photothermal therapy exerts its anticancer effect by converting laser radiation energy into
hyperthermia using a suitable photosensitizer. This study reports development of …

Impedance-based monitoring of adherent cells has gained increasing acceptance in many
areas of biomedical research and drug discovery, as it provides a noninvasive and label …

Cytotoxicity testing of nanoparticles (NPs) by conventional screening assays is often
complicated by interference. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are particularly difficult to assess. To …

To improve a cancer patient's quality of life, short treatment duration resulting in rapid tumour
removal while sparing normal tissue are highly desirable. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) …
