Ensuring water quality and safety requires the effective detection of emerging contaminants, which present significant risks to both human health environment. Field deployable low-cost sensors provide solutions detect contaminants at their source enable large-scale monitoring management. Unfortunately, availability utilization such remain limited. This Perspective examines current sensing technologies for detecting analyzes critical barriers, as high costs, lack reliability, difficulties in implementation real-world settings, stakeholder involvement sensor design. These technical nontechnical barriers severely hinder progression from proof-of-concepts negatively impact user experience factors ease-of-use actionability using data, ultimately affecting successful translation widespread adoption these technologies. We examples specific systems explore key strategies address remaining scientific challenges that must be overcome translate into field improving sensitivity, selectivity, robustness, performance environments. Other aspects tailoring research meet end-users' requirements, integrating cost considerations consumer needs early prototype design, establishing standardized evaluation validation protocols, fostering academia-industry collaborations, maximizing data value by sharing initiatives, promoting workforce development are also discussed. The describes a set guidelines development, translation, swiftly accurately detect, analyze, track, manage contamination.

Synergistic Gold Nanorod‐based Chemo‐Photothermal Therapy: A Promising Nanoparticle Approach for Refractory Multidrug‐Resistant Cancer

ChemBioEng Reviews, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 11(4)

Опубликована: Июль 25, 2024

Abstract Multidrug resistance (MDR) remains a formidable challenge in cancer treatment, necessitating innovative strategies to enhance therapeutic outcomes. This review explores the potential of synergistic gold nanorod (GNR) therapy (SGNRT) utilizing GNRs as multifunctional platforms for co‐delivering chemotherapy and thermal therapies. The rational design SGNRT systems enables targeted payload delivery, circumvention Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)‐binding cassette drug efflux transporters, hyperthermia‐induced chemo sensitization. In vitro studies demonstrate impact overcoming MDR, emphasizing its enhanced antitumor efficacy. However, further vivo investigations are essential assess clinical viability this nanoparticle (NP)‐directed approach against advanced multidrug‐resistant malignancies. integration holds promise advancing precision therapies addressing intricate challenges settings.
