Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

This thesis presents the synthesis, coating and characterization of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) with properties especially designed for the ultimate simultaneous MRI detection and hyperthermia treatment of lymph node metastases, a combination called t ...

Biocompatibility restrictions have limited the use of magnetic nanoparticles for magnetic hyperthermia therapy to iron oxides, namely magnetite (Fe3O4) and maghemite (gamma-Fe2O3). However, there is yet another magnetic iron oxide phase that has not been c ...

Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) were prepared via aqueous synthesis which combines alkaline co-precipitation (CP) of ferric and ferrous precursors with mild hydrothermal (HT) treatment without cupping agents (CA). In this novel synthesis route, CP + HT, w ...

Due to their high chemical affinity towards metal ions, chelating agents (CAs) have been used for decades for water purification, but also for protection against metal intoxication and in nanomedicine as linking molecules at the surface of nanoparticles. H ...

Nanoparticles (NPs) in contact with a biological environment get covered by proteins and some are loosely bound and some are tightly bound. The latter form a hard protein corona (HPC) which is known to determine their biological behavior. Therefore, in ord ...

The overexpression of the folate receptor in most cancers has been widely exploited to specifically deliver folic acid (FA) coupled nanomedicines to tumors. However, complex coupling chemistry is often used to bind FA to the nanoparticles. Furthermore, ver ...

Tumor vasculature is known to be poorly organized leading to increased leakage of molecules to the extravascular space. This process can potentially increase interstitial fluid pressure impairing intra-tumoral blood flow and oxygen supply, and can affect d ...

Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) is the most important cofactor of vitamin B-6-dependent enzymes, which catalyses a wide range of essential body functions (e.g., metabolism) that could be exploited to specifically target highly metabolic cells, such as tumour ...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an effective clinical treatment for a number of different cancers. PDT can induce hypoxia and inflammation, pro-angiogenic side effects, which may counteract its angio-occlusive mechanism. The combination of PDT with anti-angi ...

Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) were synthesized by a novel aqueous synthesis route which combines co-precipitation (CP) and hydrothermal (HT) treatment, termed CP + HT, and compared with IONPs obtained by the standard CP method. Properties of both types ...

In biological environments, the surface of nanoparticles (NPs) are modified by protein corona (PC) that determines their biological behavior. Unfortunately, in vitro tests still give different PC than in vivo tests causing in vitro-in vivo discrepancy; hen ...

We developed a method to correct absorbance-based toxicity tests to remove the influence of the deposited dose of nano-particles. As a model of absorbance-based toxicity tests, we chose the frequently used MTS test. The corrected cell viabilities obtained ...
