Air-Filled Microbubbles Based on Albumin Functionalized with Gold Nanocages and Zinc Phthalocyanine for Multimodal Imaging

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
Microbubbles are intravascular contrast agents clinically used in diagnostic sonography, echocardiography, and radiology imaging applications. However, up to date, the idea of creating microbubbles with multiple functionalities (e.g., multimodal imaging,

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined targeted microbubbles for diagnosis of highly aggressive papillary thyroid carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundAccurate diagnosis of highly aggressive papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) may greatly help avoid overdiagnosis and overtreatment of PTC. However, there is still a lack of a convenient and accurate method.

A COMPARISON OF SONOTHROMBOLYSIS IN AGED CLOTS BETWEEN LOW-BOILING-POINT PHASE-CHANGE NANODROPLETS AND MICROBUBBLES OF THE SAME COMPOSITION

open access: yesUltrasound in Medicine and Biology, 2020
We present enhanced cavitation erosion of blood clots exposed to low-boiling-point (−2°C) perfluorocarbon phase-change nanodroplets and pulsed ultrasound, as well as microbubbles with the same formulation under the same conditions.

First-cycle oscillation excursions of Pickering-stabilised microbubbles subjected to a high-amplitude ultrasound pulse

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2022
Pickering stabilisation is a manufacturing process involving the adsorption of colloidal particles at gas-liquid interfaces. It is used to create the shells of stable, long-lived ultrasound contrast agent microbubbles. The purpose of the present study is

High-Resolution Imaging of Intracellular Calcium Fluctuations Caused by Oscillating Microbubbles.

open access: yesUltrasound in Medicine and Biology, 2020
Ultrasound insonification of microbubbles can locally enhance drug delivery, but the microbubble-cell interaction remains poorly understood. Because intracellular calcium (Cai2+) is a key cellular regulator, unraveling the Cai2+ fluctuations caused by an

Electrochromic Adaptive Solar Heater and Sub‐Ambient Passive Daytime Radiative Cooler

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An electrochromic Cu–Bi nanocluster device dynamically switches between solar heating and daytime sub‐ambient radiative cooling without mechanical motion. Defect‐activated graphene, minimized electrolyte loss, and pulse‐assisted reversible electrodeposition enable opposite solar and mid‐infrared modulation in one opaque platform, establishing a design ...
