I know everything I am looking for is here, watch movies, watch series, education, games, exams, news, current events and many more.
“#Nanoparticle system captures heart-disease biomarker from blood for in-depth analysis” Credit: CC0 Public Domain Researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have developed a method combining sticky nanoparticles with high-precision protein measurement to capture and analyze a common marker of heart disease to reveal details that were previously inaccessible. The new method, a system known as…
“#Silk scaffolds and magnetism to generate bone tissue and be able to use it in implants” The combination of biocompatible scaffolds formed from silk components, and stimulation of cells by means of magnetism is valid for generating bone tissue. Credit: Piqsels The journal Materialia has recently published the outcome of research conducted by a group…
“#Researchers describe nanoparticles behavior in vivo” Experiment illustration. The mouse’s tail is placed into the coil. Particles in the tail veins are detected by the magnetic coil in real time Credit: Journal of Controlled Release Nanoparticles are actively employed in medicine as contrast agents as well as for diagnosis and therapy of various diseases. However,…
“#Researchers develop a graphene oxide-based rapid test to detect infections” Fraunhofer researchers are developing graphene oxide-based biosensors to detect bacterial and viral infections within just 15 minutes. Credit: Fraunhofer IZM Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration IZM have joined forces with partners in industry and healthcare to develop a handy graphene oxide-based…
“#Diverse amyloid structures and dynamics revealed by high-speed atomic force microscopy” Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain In the human body, proteins sometimes occur in fibrillar aggregates called amyloids. Although certain amyloids are known to have a biological function, amyloid formation is often associated with pathologies, including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. Understanding how exactly amyloid fibrils form…
“#Magnetic gold nanohybrid will help fight cancer” Maxim Abakumov, head of the Biomedical Nanomaterials laboratory at NUST MISIS. Credit: Sergey Gnuskov/NUST MISIS A team of NUST MISIS scientists, together with colleagues from Russia and Germany, have presented a detailed study of magnetite-gold nanohybrids. In the future, such nanoparticles can help in theranostics—the diagnostics and subsequent…
“#Researchers uncover how cells interact with supporting proteins to heal wounds” Researchers used a 3D-mapping technique — the first time it has been applied to collagen — along with a computational model to calculate the 3D strain and stress fields created by protrusions from the cells.

“#Developing a new strategy to selectively deliver therapies to the brain” Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain The Innovation Center of NanoMedicine in Japan announced that a new strategy to specifically target to the brain was discovered in collaboration with the Department of Bioengineering, Graduate School of Engineering, University of Tokyo. The details are published in the…
“#Scientists publish seminal study into impact of nanoparticles on living species” Credit: University of Plymouth An international team of scientists has completed the first ever study into the potential impact of naturally occurring and man-made nanoparticles on the health of all types of the major living species of animals. Conceived by researchers at the University…
“#Designer nanozymes for reactive-oxygen species scavenging anti-inflammatory therapy” Schematic illustration of the design of an integrated nanozyme with cascade anti-ROS activity for IBD therapy. (A) Cellular cascade enzymes for anti-ROS. The therapeutic efficacy of such a system is limited because of the different subcellular locations of SOD and CAT enzymes and limited extracellular stability. (B)…
