Abstract
Early cancer detection is paramount for effective treatment and potential cures. This research explores the application of perovskite materials, specifically Sr2+-doped Lanthanum Cobaltite (La1-xSrxCoO3) nanomaterials, in cancer detection, with a focus on rats as an experimental model. The ferroelectric nature of these materials, synthesized through a combination of sol-gel and molten-salt processes, was examined at varying Sr2+ doping levels (1-20 wt%). Rigorous characterization, employing X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, confirmed the uniform morphology of nano cubes, laying the foundation for subsequent investigations. The magnetic properties of the perovskite nanoparticles were probed, suggesting their potential as a diagnostic tool for cancer detection. This study extends to the synthesis and characterization of inner transition metal oxide (perovskite-type structure), utilizing X-ray diffraction spectroscopy to assess phase purity. Scanning electron microscopy provides insights into material morphology, while FTIR spectroscopy and UV-Visible spectroscopy contribute additional justification for the synthesized material. The research aims to integrate these findings into the development of a diagnostic tool for cancer, with a particular emphasis on hyperthermia therapy. Future research is needed to realize the full potential of this innovative approach in human cancer detection and treatment. This project bridges the fields of material synthesis, thorough characterization, and biomedical application, offering a promising avenue for advancing cancer diagnostics and treatment modalities.
