The
toxicological impact of nanoparticles| Multitasking nanoparticles target cancer | |
| Polymer nanoparticles (NPs) that act as imaging probes and use magnetic guidance to improve drug delivery have been developed. | |
Electron tomography reaches
new benchmark
Researchers have reconstructed fullerene-like particles with a resolution
of 0.11 nm3, an order of magnitude better than achieved
to date.
Engineering light emission
with nanoparticle dopants
New rare-earth-doped, core-shell nanoparticles could enable the spectral
design of luminescent materials.
Handling the molecules
of life
Improved biomolecular assembly may be possible by using an atomic
force microscope probe to relocate DNA strands.
Rapid exit strategy for
nanotubes
Nanotube-based systems for drug delivery must not linger in organs
or tissue. Researchers have shown how to promote the clearance of
nanotubes by adjusting their surface chemistry.
