The unique properties of magnetite nanoparticles, including superparamagnetism and biocompatibility, make them suitable candidates for various medical applications. This study investigates the effects ...

(Nanowerk News) Mineral oil lubricants protect engine parts from wear, and this effect is enhanced by adding polymer nanoparticles to the lubricating oil. A UK team has now discovered that epoxy ...

For DNA-functionalized nanoparticle assembly, a typical far-from-equilibrium system, the entropy-controlled thermal annealing strategy constitutes a traditional and generally adopted way to escape ...

Prof. Liang Haojun from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) proposed a new method to escape from metastability for self-assembly in a ...

The Kennedy College of Science, Department of Chemistry, invites you to attend a Ph.D. Research Proposal defense by Gayan Kanchana Aluthwala Acharige entitled “Mechanistic Study of Trehalose-Directed ...

Functionalization is a process of modifying the surface chemistry of nanomaterials by attaching functional groups, molecules, or biomolecules to their surface. This process aims to enhance the ...

Engineers devised a way to purify protein drugs during manufacturing. Their approach, which uses nanoparticles to rapidly crystallize proteins, could help make protein drugs more affordable and ...

A study published in Nature Communications examined the use of calcium carbonate nanoparticles (CNPs) to improve the activation and function of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in cancer immunotherapy.

In the form of a 'nasal spray', tiny gold particles act as carriers, delivering a treatment directly to the brain: developed by scientists at the Università Cattolica Rome campus/Fondazione ...
