Abstract:
We present recent achievements of minimally invasive welding of biological tissue and controlled drug release based on laser-activated nano-biomaterials. In particular, we consider new advancements in the biomedical application of near-IR absorbing gold nano-chromophores as an original solution for the photothermal repair of surgical incisions and as nanotriggers of controlled drug release from hybrid biopolymer scaffolds.
Keywords:
laser welding, laser – tissue interaction, photothermal properties, chromophores, gold nanoparticles, nanocomposites.
