Use of Core/Shell Structured Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications

Fabrication and Characterization of Core-Shell Magnetic Chitosan Nanoparticles as a Novel carrier for Immobilization of <i>Burkholderia cepacia</i> Lipase

“…They are used as catalysts, modifiers, fillers, thermal and mechanical property enhancers, sensor material due to high sensitivity to slight changes in parameter. The biomedical industry is the potential play field today 1,2 . In some of nanocomposite, the core is coated with a polymeric layer because the polymeric will endow the hybrid structure with an additional function on top of the function/property of the core, hence synergistically emerged functions can be raised 3 .…”

“…Core-shell structures serve a wide category of drug delivery application. The particles are biocompatible, have the ability to be conjugated to molecules without af-fecting the core and also can be used to encapsulate drugs 1 . Various micro/nano carriers, particularly nanoparticles and nanofibers, have become available for enzyme immobilization 4,5 .…”

Synthesis of Ag–Pt alloy nanoparticles in aqueous bovine serum albumin foam and their cytocompatibility against human gingival fibroblasts

“…Interest in nanomaterials arises due to new properties and functions stemming from their dimension and modified electronic structure [1]. Among various nanomaterials, with respect to biomedical applications, much attention had been paid towards alloy and composite materials for their superior properties compared to the individual components constituting the alloy/composite [2][3][4][5]. With respect to applications related to dentistry some nanoparticulate systems have crossed the realm of researchers and have gained entry to the market also.…”

Quantum yield excitation spectrum (UV-visible) of CdSe/ZnS core-shell quantum dots by thermal lens spectrometry

“…12,13 It is established that capping a core material with a shell reduces nonradiative recombination, when the shell inorganic material is a semiconductor with wider band gap than the core semiconductor. 14,15 Fluorescence quantum efficiency and related aging and photodegradation effects are therefore of utmost importance in the development and applications of the QDs materials.…”
