Magnetic nanoparticles are able to do both diagnosis and therapy, identifying the individual tumor cells: is the perspective theranostics Magnetic nanoparticles are able to do both diagnosis and therapy, identifying the individual tumor cells: is the perspective ‘theranostics’ disclosed by a joint research of the University of Milan, Pavia and Zaragoza presented today in Rome [...]
Researchers in Mexico have developed a methodology that applies the concepts of nanotechnology for water purification , and could become the solution for treating waste water from industries. The methodology consists in developing nanoparticles. Titanium oxide is deposited on a surface of glass or crystal, and then are subjected to high temperatures and activation with [...]
A lot of people worldwide have some form of Diabetes Either Type 1 Diabetes or type 2 , in the case of type 1 diabetes , it is necessary to strictly control the Glycemia (Concentration of glucose in the blood ) because in this variety, the body has no capacity to manufacture insulin, A hormone [...]
With regard to the debate on the toxic effects of carbon nanotubes , researchers from the United States and China launched an investigation into the toxicity of carbon nanotubes in the reproductive system of male mice . The investigation showed that carbon nanotubes cause damage to the testicles , but the damage is reversible and [...]
Last March, a group of scientists from the prestigious MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) has published an article in the journal Nature Materials in carefully explaining his discovery of wave generation by power plants, have made a carbon nanotube coated fuel these waves can lead through them, generating an avalanche of electrons. This phenomenon was [...]
From carbon nanotubes simple , a team of researchers from the UK and Spain has developed a sugar -coated nanoshells can provide large doses of radioactivity to tumors. The researchers envisage the development of a series of nanoscale delivery devices that can target specific organs of the body to radiation therapy or representation, tinkering with [...]
