Evaluation of the Targeting and Therapeutic Efficiency of Anti-EGFR Functionalised Nanoparticles in Head and Neck Cancer Cells for Use in NIR-II Optical Window

Evaluation of the Targeting and Therapeutic Efficiency of Anti-EGFR Functionalised Nanoparticles in Head and Neck Cancer Cells for Use in NIR-II Optical Window

Gold nanoparticles have been indicated for use in a diagnostic and/or therapeutic role in several cancer types. The use of gold nanorods (AuNRs) with a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in the second near-infrared II (NIR-II) optical window promises deeper anatomical penetration through increased maxi...
