Opis

This book is a theoretical research of the problem of medical drugs delivery to a target site in the body using nanoparticles. Very often, the medical drug is harmful to healthy tissue, and one of the many challenges is the way the drug is discharged from the inside of the nanoparticle into the affected part of the body. Earlier performed researches of the optical properties of layered nano-structures showed their distinctly discrete optic nature, which gave us the idea of "layering" these layered structures and using a core-shell model. Thus, the "trigger" for drug release from the layered structured nanoparticles can be simple infrared radiation, with determined (resonant) wavelengths - precisely depending on various (physical and chemical) properties of nano-layered particles.
