We present a novel one-step flow process to synthesize biocompatible gold nanorods with tunable absorption and biocompatible surface ligands. Photothermal optical coherence tomography (OCT) of human breast tissue is successfully demonstrated using tailored gold nanorods designed to have strong absorption in the near-infrared range.

Metabolism and differentiation of cultured cells are influenced by changes in cellular morphology. In this study, we investigated the differences cell proliferation neuronal NT2 monolayer (2D) spheroid (3D) cultures. culture, adhered extended on a tissue culture plate. For fabricated microwell chip comprising 195 circular microwells (600 ìm diameter) cutture plate, surface was modified with pol...

manufacturing new hepatitis b virus vaccines, specifically by the use of nanoparticles, is of high global interest. in this paper, a new biocompatible and biodegradable structure of nano-sized hepatitis b virus’ surface antigen (hbsag) was generated by conjugation with dendrimers, a low cost biodegradable and biocompatible polymer. the physicochemical properties of the conjugate were characteri...

Cells with various structures and proteins naturally come together to cooperate in vivo. This study used cell spheroids cultured agarose micro-wells as a 3D model the movement of cells or toward other spheroids. The formation dynamics tumor interactions two batches were studied. results showed that concave bottom micro-well (diameter: 2 mm, depth: mm) prepared from 3% could be interaction cells...
