Abstract:
With the rapid development of nanotechnology,nanomaterials have received more and more attention in the application of medical transformation researches.As a new type of multifunctional inorganic nanomaterial with particle size between 1 to 100 nm,zinc oxide nanoparticles not only has common nano-effects including high specific surface area,quantum size and macroscopic tunneling,but also has some important special effects in optical,catalytic and biological aspects showing a wide range of application prospects.In recent years,with the deepening of the physicochemical properties and special effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles,its application in biomedical fields has gradually become a research hotspot in the field of biomedicine,such as molecular fluorescence probe,antibacterial,biosensor,drug carrier,and photochemical therapy of tumor.In this paper,the special effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles on optical,catalytic and biological aspects were highlighted,and its research progress was reviewed in medical imaging applications such as molecular imaging localization,biosignal sensing and molecular recognition,drug carrier development and tumor therapy.Furthermore,the problems in the translational application of zinc oxide nanoparticles were discussed.
