Application of nanorods for multifunctional drug carriers

摘要

Goals of drug delivery include multi functionalityincluding site- specific targeting, diagnostic, releasecontrolling, long-lasting properties, and low side effects.In this study, a gold-nickel multi-segmented nanorod wasfabricated by electrodeposition and be possesseddiagnostic, targeting and long-lasting properties asmodification to apply for anti-cancer drug delivery.Furthermore, nanorods have enabled tumor-specificcontrast enhancement in MRI. 1,2
