IIT - M develops the technique to cure Cancer without side effect.

Targeted Action of 'Nanotubes' on cancer cell

 

Say no to any side effects of medicines that cure cancer , because Researchers of IIT - Madras have developed a technique to kill the cancer cells directly without affecting  the neighbour cells and tissues .

This technique uses the carbon Nanotubes to specifically target the cancer cells . Nano Technology recently has gained tremendous importance. Nanotube measuring less than one micron in length made by rolling graphene sheets is used to target cancer cells using Photodynamic Therapy and are killed by inducing  heat without any toxic effect to the body. In this therapy only cancer cells are embedded with the nanotubes which get heated and killed. This research is in collaboration with  University of Singapore. Once the research is completed it is sure that this method will be more preferred as it has an advantage of almost zero side effect . This research will Revolutionalize the Medical Science.
