Sona Nanotech Selects Minnetronix to Engineer Its Next Generation Targeted Hypothermia Cancer Therapy Light Device

Sona Nanotech has partnered with Minnetronix Medical to engineer the second generation of its infrared light device for developing pre-clinical Targeted Hyperthermia Therapy for colorectal cancer. The light device will transfer energy by way of infrared light to Sona’s proprietary, biocompatible gold nanorods in cancerous tumors which will then convert the light energy into heat. The device is being designed to fit in the auxiliary channel of the sigmoidoscopes and colonoscopes used by oncology gastroenterologists.

Sona Nanotech is a nanotechnology life sciences firm that has developed multiple proprietary methods for the manufacture of various types of gold nanoparticles. Minnetronix Medical provides medical device design, development, and manufacturing services across several technology specialties including optical devices, with expertise in complex opto-mechanics, illumination system design, optical system integration, power and heat management, and LED and laser system designs.

The five keywords are Sona Nanotech, Minnetronix Medical, infrared light device, Targeted Hyperthermia Therapy, gold nanorods.
