Melanoma is highly dependent on cellular metabolism, but current treatments show limited effectiveness. Despite the promising antitumor properties of curcumin, its clinical utility is limited by its poor bioavailability and potential systemic toxicity. To address these challenges, we formulated curcumin-loaded polyethylene glycol-polycaprolactone (PEG-PCL) nanoparticles, denoted as PEG-PCL@Cur.

Methods: We developed a nanoplatform to target prostate cancer cells based on graphdiyne (GDY) and a copper-based metal-organic framework (GDY-CuMOF), that carries the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin (DOX) for cancer treatment.
Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) has been widely applied in in situ and real-time monitoring of trace gas concentrations. In this paper, an advanced TDLAS-based optical gas sensing system with laser linewidth analysis and filtering/fitting algorithms is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The linewidth of the laser pulse spectrum is innovatively considered and analyzed in the harmonic detection of the TDLAS model.
