ALB and cancer: Researchers develop bovine serum albumin (BSA) coated spherical silver NPs as effective photothermal therapy (PTT) agents in treating skin cancer.BSA-coated silver NPs effectively convert laser light into heat, depending on the NP concentration and laser power, which further leads to significant reduction in B16F10 melanoma cells.These indicate the importance of developing silver NP-integrated PTT formulations for cancer treatment.
