Finds documents with one or the other search term (e.g. porsche OR volkswagen).
Finds documents with all search terms. Blank space is understood as AND (e.g. man robot production).
Finds documents with no appearance of the word behind NOT (e.g. ford NOT "harrison ford").
Finds documents where the search term is mentioned at least "n" times."n" may be any number (e.g. COUNT(gear)>8).
Finds documents with both search terms in any word order, permitting "n" words as a maximum distance between them. Best choose between 15 and 30 (e.g. NEAR(recruit, professionals, 20)).
Finds documents with the search term in word versions or composites. The asterisk * marks whether you wish them BEFORE, BEHIND, or BEFORE and BEHIND the search term (e.g. lightweight*, *lightweight, *lightweight*).
Finds documents with the search term in different spellings. "?" allows only one character (e.g. organi?ation).
Special characters are understood as AND (e.g. Miller Bros. & Sons).

Abstract

We have developed TiN nanoparticles (NPs) as a novel near-infrared-activated photothermal agent. The effect of nitridation temperature on the optical property and photothermal performance of the TiN NPs were investigated. The nanoparticles nitrided at 1000 °C presented a significant absorption along the whole biological spectral range (i.e., for wavelengths above 700 nm). After coated with polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) and poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA), they exhibited well-defined spherical morphology with average size of ~ 50 nm. We also demonstrated their therapeutic efficacy against SW1990 pancreatic cancer cells. The results indicated that the PSS/PDDA-coated TiN NPs offered several advantages including high photothermal conversion efficiency (44.6%), high photothermal stability, broad spectral tunability, low cytotoxicity and facile synthesis process. These features make TiN NPs promising alternative for use as a photothermal agent in cancer photothermal treatment.
