Item Water-structuring molecules and nanomaterials enhance radiofrequency heating in biologically relevant solutions(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016) Lara, Nadia C.; Haider, Asad A.; Ho, Jason C.; Wilson, Lon J.; Barron, Andrew R.; Curley, Steven A.; Corr, Stuart J.For potential applications in nano-mediated radiofrequency cancer hyperthermia, the nanomaterial under investigation must increase the heating of any aqueous solution in which it is suspended when exposed to radiofrequency electric fields. This should also be true for a broad range of solution conductivities, especially those that artificially mimic the ionic environment of biological systems. Herein we demonstrate enhanced heating of biologically relevant aqueous solutions using kosmotropes and a hexamalonoserinolamide fullerene.
