Tissue regeneration model construcyion by nano-carbon-based molecular heater

为应用于组织再生，制备了含碳纳米管的海藻酸凝胶型加热装置。这种设备暴露在近红外(NIR)辐射中后会释放大量的振动能量。它们的热产生依赖于辐照的近红外能量。该凝胶装置显示了近红外辐射对小鼠皮下组织的局部加热作用。研究结果表明，含有碳纳米管的凝胶将是一种有用的加热装置，可以直接或间接地应用于部分再生。

Alginate gel-based heating device containing carbon nanotube was prepared for applying the tissue regeneration. This device releases substantial vibrational energy after exposure to near-infrared(NIR) radiation. Their heat generation was dependent on the irradiated NIR energy. This gel device showed localized heating in subcutaneous tissue of mouse by NIR irradiation. The results of this study revealed that the carbon nanotube-containing gel would be a useful heating device which could be applied to portion to be regenerated directly or indirectly.
