Fluorescent gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) or nanodots (NDs) with sizes smaller than 3 nm are
a specific type of gold nanomaterials. In this review, Au NCs are used to represent …

Liposomes are nanocarriers comprised of lipid bilayers encapsulating an aqueous core. The
ability of liposomes to encapsulate a wide variety of diagnostic and therapeutic agents has …

In vitro biosensors have been an integral component for early diagnosis of cancer in the
clinic. Among them, no-wash biosensors, which only depend on the simple mixing of the …

Throughout the past decade, there has been a rapid growth in the development of
protein/peptide-based therapeutics. These therapeutics have found widespread applications …

During the past 50 years, there has been increased interest in liposomes as carriers of
