Targeted gene delivery for the treatment of atherosclerosis
Researchers from Georgia Tech and Emory University have used gold nanospheres for the targeted delivery of anti-miRNA into inflamed endothelial cells to suppress atherosclerosis.
Shaping up polyphosphazenes: star dendritic molecular brushes
In a new study, researchers from the Johannes Kepler University in Linz, Austria, present for the first time a synthetic route to prepare polyphosphazenes with globular, highly branched morphologies (so called “star dendritic molecular brushes”) and controlled size.
Can Polymers Regenerate Teeth?
A common goal for tissue engineering has been finding a way to regenerate and repair the inflamed tissues.
To Leach or not to Leach – Antimicrobial Polymer Materials
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a challenging threat to human life, especially in healthcare institutions.
Titania mania – peering into the heart of photocatalysis
4D ultra-fast electron microscopy can peer into and peel away the most subtle details and beauty of photocatalysis, providing a new sharp focus realism of human-made nano machinery for the solar powered fixation of CO2 to fuels and chemical feedstocks.
