New Genre Of Sugar-coated ‘Quantum Dots’ For Drug Delivery
Scientists in Switzerland are reporting an advance that could help tap the much-heralded potential of “quantum dots”— nanocrystals that glow when exposed to ultraviolet light — in the treatment of cancer and other diseases.
They are publishing the first study showing that giving quantum dots an icing-like cap of certain sugars makes these nanoparticles accumulate in the liver but not other parts of the body. That selective targeting could be used to deliver anti-cancer drugs to one organ,
without causing the body-wide side-effects that occur with existing cancer drugs, they suggest.
Their study is in the Feb. 18 issue of the Journal of the American Chemical Society, a weekly publication.
In the new report, Peter H. Seeberger and colleagues note that quantum dots, about 1/5,000th the width of a human hair, are used in solar cells, medical diagnostic imaging, and electronics. Scientists believe these particles also show promise for drug delivery for treating cancer and other diseases. However, researchers still have not found an ideal way to target these dots to specific tissues or organs in order to maximize their effectiveness and limit toxicity.
They describe development of a new type of quantum dot coated with certain sugar molecules that are attracted to receptors in specific tissues and organs. In a study with laboratory mice, the scientists coated quantum dots with either mannose or galactosamine, two sugars that accumulate selectively in the liver. The sugar-coated dots became three times more concentrated in the mice livers than the regular dots, demonstrating their higher specificity, the researchers say.

Scientist in Switzerland have discovered quantum dots which are nanochrystals that glow in uv light.
It is used for treatment for cancer.and other diseases.
It targets one organ without having all the side effects that is with the cancer treatments used today.
Peter Seeberfer states that the quantum dots is about 1/5,000 the width of a human hair..
Scientists used laboratory mice coated dots with 2 types of sugar that accumalate in the liver.
The sugar coated dots is 3 times more focused in the mice livers than regular dots.
The article I read was called New Genre of Sugar-Coated ‘Quantum Dots’ for Drug Delivery. Scientists are testing mannose or galactosamine sugar coated quantum dots on mice. Quantum dots are nanocrystals that glow when exposed to ultraviolent light. It maybe used to treat cancer and other diseases. A quantum dot is extremely small. There trying to direct the drugs to a specific organ or tissue in the body. What is so amazing is if they can make this drug go to a certain organ or tissue it won’t have the side effects of cancer drugs we have today.
That means targeting could be used to deliver cancer drugs.
Their study is in Feb.18 magazine called Journal of the American Chemical Society.
About one and five thousand is the width of human hair are used in solar cells.
Researchers haven’t found and ideal way to target the dots to specific tissues or other types of organs.
The scientists coated the dots two types of sugar that accumulate in the liver.
1.Quantum dots an icing-like cap of certain suger makes nanaparticales accumulate in liver but not other parts of the body
2.The selective targeting can be used to deliver anti cancer drugs to one organ,without causing body wide side effects that occur with existing cancer drugs.
3.Quantum dots are 1/5,000th the width of a human hair.
4.Particales show drug delivery for treating cancder and other diseases.
5.Suger coated dots are three times more concentrated in the mice livers than the regular dots.
Scientists in Switzerland are publishing the first study saying that qantum dots of some sugars makes nanoparticles ammulate in the liver but not in any other parts of the body.This could be used to deliever anti cancer drugs to one organ without any side effects. They are used in solar cells too. But they do not want to use this to cure cancer in order to maximise theyre effectiveness or to limit toxcity.They describe new discoveries of a type of it that is coated with certain sugar molecules. These are attracted to recepters in specific tissues and organs. They became three times more concentrated in the mices liver than the regular dots because they covered the dots with either mannose or galactosamine, two sugars that accumulate in the liver.
Scientists in Switzerland are reporting that there is potential for using “quantum dots” during the treatment of cancer and other diseases. They have started to publish their discovery on how a quantum dot coated with certain sugars makes the nanoparticles accumulate in just the liver and NO other parts of the body. They beleive that if it is used as an anticancer drug it can send the drug to one particular spot in the body instead of taking the risk of causing damage to other body-parts. However scientists have not yet found a way to direct the it to certain objects. They try to develop a new type of quantum dots with certain sugars on it that are attracted to the receptors of organs. The dots have since then become more specific to where they want them to go inside the mouse’s body, in which they were testing it on.
1.Scientists are making an advance that could treat of cancer and other diseases
2.it is made of sugar covered Quantum Dots
3.it only helps the part of the body that it is meint for
4.the Scientists tested it on mice and it worked
5.it doesn’t cause the body side effects that occur with existing cancer drugs
1. Quantum Dots are an icing like cap of certain sugars.
2. The selective targeting could be used to deliver anti cancer drugs to one organ.
3.There study is in the Feb.18 issue of the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
4.Quantum Dots are about 1/5,000th the width of a human hair.

THAT SELECTIVE TAGETING COULD BE USED TO DELIVER TWO SUGARS THAT ACCUMULATE SELECTIVLY IN THE LIVER. THE SUGAR-COATED DOTS BECAME THREE TIME MORE CONEENATRATED IN THE MICE LIVERS THAT REGULAR DOTS, DEMCNSTRACTING THEIR HIGHER SPECIFICITY, THE RESEARCHERSAY.
The jist of this article is that quantum dot can cause cancer. Quantum dots are nanocrystals that glow under ultraviolet light. Also 1/5000th of the width of the average humans hair are used in are used in solar cells and other stuff. They haven’t found a way to put in a specific organ though. But they’re testing it on rats so eventually they’ll figure out what to do soon.

Scientists in Switzerland are publishing the first study saying that quantum dots of some sugars makes nanoparticles that accumulate in the liver but not in any other parts of the body. It is used as an anticancer drug it can send the drug to one specific spot in the body instead of taking the risk of causing damage to any other body-parts. The researchers still have not found a way to target these dots to particular tissues or organs. The sugar-covered dots became three times more condensed in the mice livers than the regular dots did.
New discovers are being made to nanocrystals called quantum dots. Soon to be published, it is said that when the dots are coated with specific sugars they accumulated at the liver. The sugar coated dots compared to the regular are much more concentrated when in the liver. It is hoped that this might be a new way to deliver anti- cancer drugs to an organ without harmful side effects. The way to get the dots to specific organs or tissue has not yet been found but is being worked on hard. Now being tested on mice, the scientists have been able to find a new quantum dot. Hopefully scientist will be able to find many new types of dots and get them to move to certain organs so the battle against cancer and other diseases can end.

This showed that anti-cancer drugs can be given to one organ without causing the body to have side-effects. Quantum dots are about 1/5,000th the width of a human hair. They are used in solar cells, medical diagnostic imaging, and electronics. Scientists hope drug delivery for treating deseases like cancer will show in these particles.
