With the description of more and more complex one-and two-dimensional NMR experiments comes the need to develop methods to make a comprehensive interpretation of the various different experiments that can be carried out on the same sample or series of related samples. We present some examples of modelling one-and two-dimensional solid-state NMR spectra of I = 1 2 spin and quadrupolar nuclei, using laboratory-developed software that is made available to the NMR community.
Silica-based nanoparticles for applications in photodynamic therapy (PDT) have emerged as a promising field for the treatment of cancer. In this review, based on the pathway the photosensitizer is entrapped inside the silica matrix, the different methods for the synthesis of silica-based nanoparticles are described from the pioneering works to the latest achievements which concern multifunctional nanoplatforms, up-converting nanoparticles, two-photon PDT, vectorization and in vivo applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
