Title:
TARGETED FIBERLESS RADIATIVE EFFECTORS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001008660
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention is related to cell or pathogen destruction via fiberless radiative effectors that encapsulate a free radical generator. Fiberless radiative effectors include a polymer matrix, a photodynamic or radiodynamic dye which produces free radicals upon stimulation, cloaking material, and at least one molecular recognition element for targeting to a biological target. Other fiberless radiative effectors may be used for imaging biological targets, and include a compound which is detectable by an imaging system, such as luciferase or iron.
