What are the Applications of Chemically Conjugated Nanoparticles?
Chemically conjugated nanoparticles have a wide range of applications:
1. Drug Delivery: By conjugating drugs to nanoparticles, it is possible to deliver them directly to the target site, reducing side effects and improving efficacy. 2. Diagnostics: Conjugated nanoparticles can be used as contrast agents in imaging techniques such as MRI and CT scans, providing better resolution and specificity. 3. Biosensors: Nanoparticles conjugated with specific biomolecules can be used to detect the presence of pathogens, toxins, or other substances with high sensitivity.
