Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a method for predicting the ways in which nanoparticles interact with biological systems, including the human body. His work could have implications for improving human and environmental safety in the handling of nanomaterials, and applications for drug delivery. The researchers wanted to create a method for the [...]
Using ” nanoexplosiones ” chemicals that make small holes in the protective membrane of the cells, researchers have demonstrated a new technique to deliver therapeutic small molecules , proteins and DNA directly in living cells. activated carbon nanoparticles by laser light trigger bursts of small explosions that open holes in cell membranes allow sufficient time [...]
This past April, a team of scientists from Ireland, Sweden and the United States has published a study showing that an enzyme found in white blood cells are capable of separating carbon nanotubes. The article is published by the prestigious journal Nature Nanotechnology and is to deny what was being said so far, that carbon [...]
A team of researchers University of South Australia has developed and patented a new technology that allows a better distribution of cosmetics and medicines through the skin. Dr Nasrin Eskandar Ghouchi – of Ian Wark Research Institute at UniSA and his team are using nanoparticles of silica (essentially sand) to create more durable and cosmetic [...]
