Triggerable Oxygen Nanobubbles for Drug Delivery, Diagnosis, and Enhanced Survival
Researchers at Purdue University have capitalized on the broad clinical utility of ultrasound. This technology is the first nanosized oxygen- and cargo-bearing bubbles that can be tuned to first image at a low intensity and selectively release cargo upon an ultrasound trigger at a higher intensity.
