Theranostics

  • Theranostics is a new field of medicine which combines specific targeted therapy based on specific targeted diagnostic tests. With a key focus on patient centred care, theranostics provides a transition from conventional medicine to a contemporary personalised and precision medicine approach. The theranostics paradigm involves using nanoscience to unite diagnostic and therapeutic applications to form a single agent, allowing for diagnosis, drug delivery and treatment response monitoring.

​

  • Theranostics system based on surface-modified gold nanocarriers for imaging and photodynamic therapy of cancer.

​

  • Photosensitizer-conjugated nanoparticles for photodynamic therapy.

​

  • Ligand-mediated nanoparticulate system for targeting drug delivery.

​

  • Folate/biotin-mediated targeting for anticancer therapy.

​

  • Biodegradable nanospheres composed of amphiphilic block copolymer.

  • MNPs can easily assembled by an external magnetic field, allowing more sensitive, faster, and accurate sensing of biomolecules. In addition, the MNPs have low background noise and strong electrical signals, so it can be analyzed without any signal conversion.

​​

  • Advantages of biosensor are high specificity and sensitivity, continuous measurement, fast response time.
