SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Technology description follows.
Metallic Nanoparticles for
Photothermal Therapy
Description of Technology: The
invention relates to the preparation and
application of 20–150nm metallic
nanoparticulate vesicles for
photothermal anti-cancer therapy. The
vesicles comprise metallic nanoparticles
covalently bound to a hydrophilic and
hydrophobic polymer. The preparation
method generally entails dispersing a
polymer-bound metallic nanoparticle in
an organic solvent, adding an aqueous
solution with a dispersing aid,
sonicating the mixture, and finally
removing the organic solvent until the
vesicle forms. The final vesicle is stable
wherein the metallic nanoparticle is
covalently bound to the hydrophobic
and hydrophilic polymer. By way of a
non-limiting example, an exemplary
vesicles can be one made from gold
nanorods coated with polyethylene
glycol and polylactic-co-glycolic acid
(AuNR@PEG/PLGA) in an oil-in-water
emulsion.
Potential Commercial Applications:
• Cancer therapy
• Tumor therapy
Competitive Advantages:
• Prolonged circulation
• High tumor accumulation
• Rapid excretion
• Enhanced photoacoustic signal
