10 Questions
Layer-by-layer nanoparticles (LbL NPs) are single-component drug delivery vehicles.
False
Multifunctional nanoparticles are designed to accomplish only single objectives such as imaging or therapy.
False
Plasmonic photothermal therapy (PPTT) involves the injection of silver nanoparticles to combat cancer cells.
False
Photothermal therapy + chemotherapy is a traditional treatment for tumors like chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery.
False
Core/shell nanoparticles consist of a platinum shell and a paclitaxel core.
False
Layer-by-layer nanoparticles are built through the sequential deposition of proteins onto charged nanoparticle cores.
False
Multifunctional nanoparticles can only have imaging capabilities, not therapeutic functions.
False
Plasmonic photothermal therapy (PPTT) relies on exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light to generate heat for treatment.
False
Photothermal therapy + chemotherapy uses silver nanoparticles instead of gold nanoparticles.
False
Core/shell nanoparticles consist of a titanium shell and a paclitaxel core.
False
Learn about the application of nanomaterials in pharmaceuticals for biomarker mapping, molecular imaging, and targeted therapy. Understand how nanoparticles can passively target diseases like cancers, inflammations, and infections through the EPR effect, leading to effective therapy with minimum side effects.
