Applications

MedNanoTech is focused on developing applications that use the unique physicochemical properties of carbon nanoparticles.

Our current efforts in application development include:

  • Targeted hyperthermia for breast and other cancers
  • Nanoparticle-mediated thermal release of drug payloads
  • Development of test protocols for evaluating the toxicity of carbon nanotubes
  • Development of protocols for nanoparticle conjugates
  • The study of nanoparticle interactions with mammalian cells
