The resource person explained about Introduction on carbon nanotubes, Nano medicine, Structure, properties and biomedical applications of CNT’s, CNT’s as delivery system of therapeutic molecules, Cancer tumors and treatment by Photo thermal cancer therapy, Multi functionalized CNT’s for the targeted delivery of Radioactivity for cancer treatment, Synthesis of radioactive antibody-CNT’s and their characterization by TGA, Gel Electrophoresis, Immunostaining, In vivo study of therapeutic effet-tumor inoculation and bioluminescence imaging, and also he briefed about Amino acid based hydrogels and incorporation of Nano materials into gels, Photo thermal release of drug and characterization of gels using spectrophotometric analysis and hydrogels for drug discovery.
After the talk, Dr. Menard interacted and answered many questions raised by students and researchers.
The talk was aimed to build and encourage our M.Sc. students and staff towards R&D in Nano technology and Nano medicine. Our M.Sc. chemistry students, research scholars and faculty members of our School and many students and researchers across Karnataka and India were utilized this opportunity.
