Catalytic cancer therapy exploits the tumor microenvironment (TME) to target cancer cells by leveraging molecules already present in the TME. Currently, only a few processes have been explored for cancer therapy, including glucose and glutathione oxidation, generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and alleviation of tumor hypoxia. Amino groups, which are abundant in biological environments, […]

The evaluation of toxic gas molecules spread in air at low concentration on field requires a robust microfluidic platform combined with analytical technique that can be portable and able to detect and identify the molecules. We integrate a 3D plasmonic architecture based on closely packed mesoporous silica (MCM48) nanospheres decorated by Au nanoparticles arrays, denoted […]
