It is now possible to engineer tiny containers the size of a virus to deliver drugs and other materials with almost 100 percent efficiency to targeted cells in the bloodstream.
A revolutionary new protein stabilisation technique has been developed by scientists funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) which could lead to 30 per cent more proteins being availa...
Product piracy causes billions worth of damage worldwide. A combination of visible and invisible copy protection is really effective against this. Explosive embossing is an economical procedure and can be used for mass-produced goods.
Nanoporous Materials, characterized by unique structural, bulk and surface properties, find applications in varied fields such as biological molecular isolation, catalysis, separation, purification, ion exchange and sens...
Research and Markets, leading source for international market research and market data, has announced the addition of Frost + Sullivan's new report "Nanocatalysts--Application Impact Analysis (Technical Insights...
Jeff Bulte, an affiliated faculty member of the Institute for NanoBioTechnology and professor of Radiology in the School of Medicine, received a one-time $230,000 to commercialize a promising therapy for type 1 diabetes.
Physicists have found a way to drastically prolong the shelf life of quantum bits, the 0s and 1s of quantum computers.
These precarious bits, formed in this case by arrays of semiconductor quantum dots containing a s...
For Professor Chad Mirkin, good things come in small packages - specifically one billionth of a meter in size. Yet, as director of Northwestern University's International Institute for Nanotechnology, the impact of Mirkin's work is anything but small. A prolific inventor and entrepreneur, his innovations have the potential to transform the future of medical diagnostics and patient point-of-care and to ignite change across many industries from semi-conductors to healthcare.
To stretch a supply of salt generally means using it sparingly. But researchers from Sandia National Laboratories and the University of Pittsburgh were startled when they found they had made the solid actually physically stretch.
Researchers in New Mexico are reporting the surprise discovery that common table salt - so brittle that it crushes easily between a thumb and forefinger - becomes a super plastic in the weird environs of the nanoworld.
