Article Synopsis
- Open nanoshells, or 'semi shells', have special plasmonic properties due to their asymmetric structure and are typically made using complex methods, but this study introduces a simpler one-step process for creating them.
- The newly fabricated PEGylated semi-shells show strong localized surface plasmon resonance under near-infrared light and remain effective even after being preserved for long periods, demonstrating safety in mice with no toxic effects post intravenous injection.
- In animal trials, these PEGylated semi-shells exhibited high photothermal efficiency, leading to complete eradication of primary breast tumors without affecting critical organs, and resulted in a 75% survival rate without complications for up to 90 days
