Isotropic nanoparticles are nanoscale particles that exhibit uniform physical properties in all directions. Unlike anisotropic nanoparticles, which have direction-dependent properties, isotropic ...

Bacteriophages are viruses that can kill bacteria through highly specific interactions. While this property can be beneficial in selected applications, bacteriophages represent a serious threat to ...

From a theoretical standpoint, researchers had believed for a long time that if manipulation of individual molecules is indeed possible, then materials with optical, electronic, and other ...

The prospects for using nanomaterials with diameters of <100 nm in number of applications is being widely researched around the world today across multiple domains such as pharmaceutical drug ...

In this interview, Prof. Joly-Pottuz discusses her desire to advance our understanding of the behaviour of nanoparticles in ceramic materials - especially for ceramic materials used in biomedical ...

A method of optically selecting and sorting nanoparticles according to their quantum mechanical properties has been developed by researchers in Japan. The method could prove a crucial tool for makers ...

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causal agent of the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is a respiratory virus that is primarily transmitted through ...

A study from FAU has shown that lipid nanoparticles restructure their membrane significantly after being absorbed into a cell ...
