A study that looks at how silver nanomaterials could affect the female reproductive system.
Micro-/Nanotechnology
Self-Gating Drug Delivery
Antitumour platform comes of age: this system gets the responsible drug to keep itself in check for transport and delivery.
Location-Specific Compositional Control of 1D Materials
This old dog has a new trick: an adapted lithography technique allows precise variation of the composition of 1D materials during fabrication.
Precision Functionalisation of Polymeric Microparticles
The NITEC reaction is explored with tetrazole-functionalised microparticles, and demonstrates micrometer-scale resolution as a surface-patterning technique.
Phase Control of 2D Materials with Reverse Micelles
Supercritical carbon dioxide induced reverse micelles were used to create metallic 1T-phase molybdenum disulfide and tungsten disulfide nanosheets for hydrogen generation.
How Can Protein Coronas Impact the Future of Nanomedicine?
The application and the clinical development of nanomedicines strongly requires a deep study on the complex dynamics that happen after in vivo administration. Particularly, plasma proteins tend to associate to nanoparticles, forming a new surface named the “protein corona” that can have a strong impact on biodistribution, targeting efficacy, and toxicity.
Versatile Styrene Conversion Catalyst Also Captures CO2
It reads like the plot of an action movie: against all odds, an unassuming catalyst avoids deactivation and captures its target with record effectiveness.
Sweat Collection on Skin
John Rogers and co-workers report a soft, skin-mounted microfluidic system for sweat collection and analysis directly from and on the surface of the skin.
The Role of Nanointerfaces in Hydrogen Storage
Internal interfaces in the Li3N/[LiNH2 + 2LiH] solid-state hydrogen storage system alter the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reaction pathways upon nanosizing, suppressing undesirable intermediate phases to dramatically improve kinetics and reversibility.
Nothing Sticks to this Coating: Superamphiphobic Surfaces
Superamphiphobic and durable coatings on woven/non-woven surfaces for repelling many types of liquids.
