Development of a Composite of Polypyrrole-Coated Carbon Nanotubes as a Sonosensitizer for Treatment of Melanoma Cancer Under Multi-Step Ultrasound Irradiation
In this study, we scrutinized synthesis and characterization of a polypyrrole-coated multi-walled carbon nanotubes composite (PPy@MWCNTs). PPy@MWCNTs can absorb ultrasound irradiation by both of its components, and it was introduced as a new sonosensitizer.
