Research Abstract |
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.
