  • METHODS FOR TREATING CANCERS BY USING NANOFRAMES OF PRUSSIAN BLUE OR AN ANALOGUE THEREOF AND ITS PRODUCTION METHODS
    Publication number: 20240180830
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is drawn to a method for producing a nanoframe of Prussian blue (PB) or an analogue thereof (PBA). The producing method comprises: (a) mixing a nanocube of PB or PBA with an acid solution to form a mixture; and (b) heating the mixture of the step (a) in an oil bath at 80-100° C. for 0.5 hours-1 month to produce the nanoframe of PB or PBA. Also encompassed herein is a method for treating a cancer in a subject in need thereof, which comprises administering an effective amount of a nanocube or a nanoframe of PB or PBA to the subject.

  • Modified chromium-doped zinc gallate nanocube, its preparation method and uses thereof
    Patent number: 11401232
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are modified chromium-dpoed zinc gallate (ZGC) nanocubes, which are characterized in respectively having a concave surface that is modified with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES). The modified ZGC nanocubes produce long lasting luminescence (LLL) that lasts for at least 1.5 hours under X-ray or UV excitation. Also disclosed herein are methods for the preparation of the modified ZGC nanocubes; and methods for imaging an area of interest (e.g., cancer) in a live subject using the modified ZGC nanocubes as an imaging agent.
