Advancements in MoS2-based Nanocomposites for Photothermal and Chemotherapy Applications: A Mini-Review
Abstract
Nanomaterials are recognized for their excellent properties and can be used in all areas of life. Nanomaterial-based drug delivery systems are increasingly promising and useful as tools in cancer therapy. Molybdenum sulfide (MoS2), a 2D material, is extensively studied today due to its exceptional characteristics and wide range of applications. Due to its unique properties and versatility for numerous applications, MoS2 has garnered considerable attention from researchers worldwide. MoS2 has been extensively explored for biomedical applications due to its excellent photothermal conversion ability. Multiple research papers have explored the advancements and applications of MoS2 materials, but this article aims to provide an overview of its photothermal and chemotherapy applications.
