Introduction

Nanomaterial

  • 1 to 100 nanometers

Nanoparticles (NPs)

  • One type

Drug delivery

  • Small
  • Easily diffuse through the cell
  • Antibodies

Overview

The NPs have great potential for biomedical applications

  • Size
  • Fluorescent dye

How do we make the particles better? How do we effectively utilize them? Worked with Dr. Korampally and Dr. Elsawa

Engineering Results

  • 80 mg of dye is effectively encased in the particles
  • Different concentrations of dye are being tested to find the optimal

amount

  • Low concentrations of dye have already proven unsuccessful and

quickly coagulate

  • NPs created remain evenly dispersed throughout the solution

Biological Results

  • Confirmed the hypothesis that increased quantities of NPs increases

the fluorescence

  • Work will be done to pinpoint the time necessary for NP absorption
  • Decrease the amount of time wasted
  • Optimize productivity and increase quantity of experiments
slide-33
SLIDE 33

Discussion

  • Couple NPs with something toxic to pancreatic cancer cells as a

possible cancer treatment

  • See if attaching different compounds to the NPs enhances the delivery
  • Compute NP retention in cells
  • Calculate number of dyes per particle
  • Analyze lifetime of NPs at Argonne National Laboratory
