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 ...

Most people don't enjoy getting shots for treatments or vaccines. So, researchers are working to create more medicines, such as those made from messenger RNA (mRNA), that can be sprayed and inhaled. A ...

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 ...

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.

SoFab Inks, a supplier of specialty materials used in perovskite manufacturing, has introduced a new high-performance, low-cost electron transport layer (ETL), designed to enhance the durability and ...
