English

Subject field(s)
  • Lasers and Masers
CONT

Among the various laser parameters, laser pulse width is a crucial factor to be selected carefully, depending on the application. ... Microsecond laser pulses have been widely applied for various medical treatments. Nd:YAG laser pulses with a width of microseconds and 1064 nm [nanometer] wavelength are useful for treating keloid, hypertrophic, or surgical scars.

CONT

The effects of the laser pulse width(i. e., laser intensity) on the ion properties produced after laser-particle interaction were also examined.

Forces as small as 0. 01 pN can be detected. Using TIRM, Dr. Prieve's group has measured double-layer repulsion, van der Waals attraction, optical forces exerted by a focused laser beam, receptor-mediated interaction between antigen and antibodies, steric repulsion due to adsorbed polymer layers and depletion forces.

Il s'agit d'empêcher les opsonines, ces protéines plasmatiques, de venir se fixer sur les nanovecteurs. Pour ce faire, l'équipe de Patrick Couvreur a fait appel au concept physico-chimique de la «répulsion stérique» qui consiste à greffer à la surface des nanoparticules des chaînes de polymères de polyéthylène glycol (PEG) hydrophiles et flexibles. Grâce à leur mobilité moléculaire, les chaînes de PEG repoussent - par le processus de répulsion stérique - les opsonines et les empêchent de se fixer à la surface des nanovecteurs, qui de ce fait, ne sont plus reconnus par le foie et la rate.
