Carbon Coated Nanomagnets As Potential Hyperthermia Agents
May 15th 2008Drug InformationConferences
Carbon coated nanomagnets may offer a new form of cancer treatment. Research presented at the 103rd Annual Scientific Meeting of the American Urological Association (AUA) suggests that nanoparticles consisting of metallic iron with a protective carbon coat could serve as a safe and effective hyperthermia agent. In animal models, using heat to selectively kill tumor cells has proven efficient.
