The current study investigates the therapeutic and optical properties of bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) particles for selective melanoma therapy and prevention. The Bi2O3 particles were prepared using a standard precipitation method. The Bi2O3 particles induced apoptosis in human A375 melanoma cells but not human HaCaT keratinocytes or CCD-1090Sk fibroblast cells. This selective apoptosis appears to be associated with a combination of factors: increased particle internalization (2.29 ± 0.41, 1.16 ± 0.08 and 1.66 ± 0.22-fold of control) and enhanced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) (3.4 ±...

Among the various applications of bismuth oxide powder are metal surface treatment products, plastics, and coating products. The powder also plays a significant role in chemical vapor deposition, thermal evaporation, and electron beam evaporation.

The main applications of bismuth oxide are electronic ceramic powder materials,electrolyte materials,photoelectric materials,high-temperature superconducting materials,and catalysts.
