The cancer treatment by laser-conjugated nanomaterial has become a new developing trend due of their unique physicochemical performance. The previous few studies reported the preparation of undoped CuS nanoprisms. The current research was concerned with the Mn doping effect on the CuS nanoprisms and its activity in tumor toxicity of M.

- The study focused on synthesizing and characterizing small gold nanoparticles (<5 nm) coated with Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) using various techniques, including UV-vis spectrophotometry and electron microscopy.
- It tested the effectiveness of these nanoparticles on three cancer cell lines (Rhabdomyosarcoma, Murine fibroblast, and macrophages) using a photothermal therapy approach with different concentrations and laser irradiation times.
- Results showed significant cytotoxicity, especially in the Rhabdomyosarcoma cell line, where over 74% cell death was observed at a concentration of 1 mg/ml with 3 minutes of laser exposure, highlighting the potential of BSA-AuNPs for
A cannula inserted into the posterior tibial artery of a preterm infant resulted in irreversible ischaemia of the foot with proximal extension to involve the lower leg. No predisposition to thrombosis was found and a below-knee amputation was ultimately required.
