Photothermal Nanomaterial-Mediated Photoporation

open access: yesAccounts of Chemical Research, 2023
Delivering biological effector molecules in cultured cells is of fundamental importance to any study or application in which the modulation of gene expression is required. Examples range from generating engineered cell lines for studying gene function to the engineering of cells for cell-based therapies such as CAR-T cells and gene-corrected stem cells

Performance of a photothermal detector with turbid liquids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A closed-cell photothermal detector for aqueous analytes has been evaluated at 254nm and 678nm. The detector used a water meniscus as a pressure sensor, whose periodic deflection was measured using a low finesse optical fibre Fabry-Perot interferometer.

Photothermal strain imaging [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Optics, 2017
Vulnerable plaques are the major cause of cardiovascular disease, but they are difficult to detect with conventional intravascular imaging techniques. Techniques are needed to identify plaque vulnerability based on the presence of lipids in plaque. Thermal strain imaging (TSI) is an imaging technique based on ultrasound (US) wave propagation speed ...

Comparison of self-referencing techniques for photothermal detection of trace compounds in water [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Self-referencing techniques are compared for a closed-cell photothermal detector that uses a water meniscus as a pressure sensor. Deflection of the meniscus was measured using an optical fibre Fabry–Perot interferometer.

Recent Advancements in Mitochondria-Targeted Nanoparticle Drug Delivery for Cancer Therapy

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2022
Mitochondria are critical subcellular organelles that produce most of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as the energy source for most eukaryotic cells. Moreover, recent findings show that mitochondria are not only the “powerhouse” inside cells, but also ...

Photothermal detection of trace compounds in water, using the deflection of a water meniscus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
A novel photothermal detector is described, based on a closed cell suitable for use with low-frequency modulated continuous-wave light sources. Photothermal expansion in aqueous samples caused the deflection of a water meniscus held across a 200μℳ radius
