Fluorescence image-guided surgery combined with intraoperative therapeutic modalities has great potential for intraoperative detection of oncologic targets and eradication of unresectable cancer residues. Therefore, we have developed an activatable theranostic nanoplatform that can be used concurrently for two purposes: (1)
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been identified as a promising target for the treatment of obesity, diabetes, and relevant metabolism disorders because of the adaptive thermogenesis ability of this tissue. Visualizing BAT may provide an essential tool for pathology study

The photosensitizing activity of the new far-red absorbing naphthalocyanine SiNc [OSi (n-C10H21)3] [OSi(CH3)2(CH2)3N(CH3)2], (DAP-SiNc), and of its analogue SiNc [OSi(i-C4H9)2(n-C18H37)]2, (IsoBO-SiNc), was studied with two cell variants of B16 melanoma, the amelanotic clone B78H1 and the highly pigmented B16F1 cells.

A Si(IV)-naphthalocyanine bearing two methoxyethylenglycol axial ligands to the centrally coordinated metal ion (SiNc) was prepared by chemical synthesis and assayed for the phototherapeutic activity after administration in a Cremophor formulation to C57BI/6 mice bearing a subcutaneously transplanted Lewis lung

Endometriosis is a painful disorder where endometrium-like tissue forms lesions outside of the uterine cavity. Intraoperative identification and removal of these lesions are difficult. This study presents a nanoplatform that concurrently delineates and ablates endometriosis tissues using real-time near-infrared (NIR)
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
