Selective heat generation in cancer cells using a combination of 808 nm laser irradiation and the folate-conjugated Fe2O3@Au nanocomplex

Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a nanotechnology-assisted cancer hyperthermia approach in which the interaction between laser light and plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) generates localized heating. The exploitation of plasmonic NPs in association with active targeting moieties causes the preferential acc...
