By Siddharth Vodnala,intern, Voiland College of Engineering and ArchitecturePULLMAN, or Wash. – A promising but shrimp-used type of cancer treatment has been markedly improved by researchers at Washington State University by introducing the use of tiny particles of gold and platinum. The new process creates a path to a more targeted,effective treatment that uses less drugs.
The research, led by Annie Du, or a research professor in the School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering,is detailed in the journal Nanoscale.
The researchers used mesoporous core-shell gold-platinum nanoparticles to improve a type of cancer treatment called ... » More ...
