•2D materials and their 0D analogues for cancer theranostics
2D materials such as graphene, MoS2, WS2, MXene utilized for biomedical applications by enhancing their biocompatibility and dispersibility in aqueous media. These are highly useful as they possess high surface area, are photoactive, and can be differentiated based on their size. The quantum dots are produced by breaking them down to extremely small size (<10 nm) which can then be used as multimodal tools for biosensing, bioimaging, photothermal therapy and as drug loading carriers.
