We investigate the chemo-photothermal effects of gold nanorods (GNRs) coated using mesoporous silica (mSiO<sub>2</sub>) loading doxorubicin (DOX). When the mesoporous silica layer is embedded by doxorubicin drugs, a significant change in absorption spectra enables to quantify the drug loading. We carried out photothermal experiments on saline and livers of mice having GNRs@mSiO<sub>2</sub> and GNRs@mSiO<sub>2</sub>-DOX. We also injected the gold nanostructures into many tumor-implanted mice and ...[more]
