| Title: | CARBON NANOTUBE NANOBOMB | |||||||||||
| Abstract: | The present invention provides methods for delivering therapeutic treatments to cells and tissues. In the methods of the invention, carbon nanotubes are delivered to targeted cells or tissues wherein treatment is needed or desired. The nanotubes are hydrated with water or an aqueous solution prior to or after delivery to the site where treatment is needed or desired. The nanotubes are then exposed to light of sufficient intensity and for sufficient duration to cause explosion of the nanotubes. Explosion of the nanotubes exposes the targeted cells to a lethal or damaging dose of heat. | |||||||||||
