Scientists from Rice University, in Houston, USA, and their collaborators have discovered a new way to destroy cancer cells through infrared light.
This innovative technique highlights the power of the vibration of molecules induced by infrared rays to destroy cancer cells, offering new hope in the fight against cancer, reports "BrighterSide" media.
The team of scientists created a kind of hammer using several molecules, which they refer to as "plasmons", which when placed in the vicinity of infrared light, emit vibrations in a synchronized manner, which leads to the destruction of cell membranes. carcinogenic. The findings, which were published in "Nature Chemistry", have shown an effective result by eliminating 99 percent of melanomas in mice in the laboratory.
