Seminarium "Teoria i Modelowanie Nanostruktur"

Carbon and silica nanostructures are often studied due to their physiochemical properties and knowledge on the nanostructures synthesis and functionalization techniques. The following contribution presents in vitro and in vivo studies on the silica nanostructures with potential anticancer application. The core-shell mesoporous silica nanospheres were studied in the in vitro and in vivo, in therms of their biocompatibility and potential anticancer application as a drug carrier. Additional studies on the selected nanostructures stability showed tendency to degrade in the environment imitating conditions in the living organism. Based on the obtained results, assessment of applications’ efficiency of the nanomaterials has been performed.
