Application

The wide liquid range of gallium was exploited recently when it was used as a solvent for the successful synthesis of ternary silicides, SmNiSi3 and YNiSi3, without incorporating Ga in their structure -- a promising new synthetic method.

Gallium has been the second metal to show activity against malignant tumors in humans soon after the establishment of platinum drugs in routine clinical practice. It has the unique property of inhibiting tumor growth as a simple cation, mainly because

We demonstrate a very simple and generic protocol for ultrasensitive in-situ label-free detection of DNA hybridization using third generation poly(amidoamine)dendrimer (G3-PAMAM) functionalized GaN nanowires (NWs). PAMAM modified GaN NWs provides large density of docking site to immobilize significant number of

The trivalent gallium cation is capable of inhibiting tumor growth, mainly because of its resemblance to ferric iron. It affects cellular acquisition of iron by binding to transferrin, and it interacts with the iron-dependent enzyme ribonucleotide reductase, resulting in reduced
