Gold in science and technology(10.30)

LONDON (Commodity Online): Gold is a precious metal whose value is guaranteed by its rarity, durability and usefulness. It has represented wealth since it was discovered and has remained highly valued over the centuries. Investors have also realized the importance of buying gold to hedge their investments in volatile markets against economic downturns and inflation.

Also, we are seeing an explosion of interest in the use of gold in science and technology. Exciting breakthroughs are occurring regularly within some of the world’s leading academic and industrial institutions.

Cutting-edge therapeutics
The need for effective and safe treatments of disease has never been greater. Gold is playing a key role in a number of emerging therapies. The innovative drug delivery company, Cytimmune, is due to start phase II clinical trials with its gold-based tumour targeting technology. Nanospectra, another US-based bioscience company, has also successfully completed clinical studies with its tumour ablation technology, Aurolase. Researchers at the world renowned MD Anderson cancer centre in Houston are making rapid progress with their radio-frequency heated gold nanoparticle cancer treatment.www.goldennifty.com
