Photothermal‐Activated Antibacterial Amyloid‐Polyphenol‐Iron Hydrogels for Synergistic Wound Healing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We report a thermally triggered supramolecular hydrogel (LTFe) formed by Fe3+ and tannic acid on lysozyme amyloid fibrils. Fe3+ enables rapid gelation and photothermal transduction with an efficiency of 88.56%. The LTFe hydrogel exhibits excellent biocompatibility, potent antibacterial activity against E. coli and S.

Quantum Dots as Multimodal Photoacoustic and Photothermal Contrast Agents [PDF]

Nano Letters, 2008
Quantum dots (QDs) have primarily been developed as fluorescent probes with unique optical properties. We herein demonstrate an extension of these QD utilities to photoacoustic (PA) and photothermal (PT) microscopy, using a nanosecond pulse laser excitation (420-900 nm, 8 ns, 10(-3)-10 J/cm(2)).
