NEW YORK: Skin cancer is a caustic malignant expansion of the skin that is spreading rapidly. In this framework, the scientists here had been pondering over for quite some time to discover a novel way to cure this.

Finally, an innovative tattoo ink could assist in surgical therapies for patients suffering from this cancer. The dye is believed to shine merely under specific light situation and fade away afterwards.

Ultraviolet light exposure from the sun or from tanning beds too result this. Fair color humans with hazel or blue eyes and people with blond or red hair are more prone to come out with this syndrome.

Therapeutic experts also make use of tattoos so as to distinguish upcoming cure signs accurately. This is also significant for classifying biopsy spots of Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer (NMSC) patients as they usually wait for some three months among a biopsy and treatment. 

For conducting this research, the panel of investigators comprising of scientists Kai Chen, Gary S Chuang, Hsian-Rong Tseng and colleagues from the University of Southern California here has tried out this experiment on mice model.

Their up shots have demonstrated that tattoos generated by means of using these nano-particles did not wreak any irritation that stay on the skin for three months. This provides ample time to point out a spot from biopsy via treatment for a non-melanoma patient.

They have reported their outcomes in the study published in the journal ACS Nano.
