Abstract
Gadolinium (Gd) nanoparticles hold significant promise in medical theranostics due to their unique properties. This review outlines the synthesis, characterisation, and applications of Gd nanostructures in combating microbial threats and advancing cancer theragnostic strategies. Synthesis methods such as co-precipitation, microemulsion, and laser ablation are discussed, alongside TEM, SEM, and magnetic characterisation. The antimicrobial efficacy of Gd nanostructures, their potential in combination therapy, and promising anticancer mechanisms are explored. Biocompatibility, toxicity, and regulatory considerations are also evaluated. Challenges, future perspectives, and emerging trends in Gd nanostructure research are highlighted, emphasising their transformative potential in medical applications.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Microencapsulation is a well-established, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the publication of original research findings related to the preparation, properties and uses of individually encapsulated novel small particles, as well as significant improvements to tried-and-tested techniques relevant to micro and nano particles and their use in a wide variety of industrial, engineering, pharmaceutical, biotechnology and research applications. Its scope extends beyond conventional microcapsules to all other small particulate systems such as self assembling structures that involve preparative manipulation.
The journal covers:
Chemistry of encapsulation materials
Physics of release through the capsule wall and/or desorption from carrier
Techniques of preparation, content and storage
Many uses to which microcapsules are put.
