In their hypothesis article in BioEssays, Downing et al. present a testable hypothesis as to why sterile worker castes evolve, and continue to evolve, in many social insect orders: a hypothesis with implications for understanding longevity in general.
Researchers have developed CellShape, a user-friendly image analysis tool for quantitative visualization of bacterial cell factories
Macromolecules with specific sequential arrangements of the monomer units have several amazing features, similar to DNA and RNA. As a result, polymer chemists have concentrated on the synthesis of sequence-controlled polymers, regarded as the “Holy Grail” of polymer...
Over the past decade, melanin pigments and their subunits have attracted increasing interest as soft biocompatible functional materials with antioxidant properties for engineering high performance, low impact biocompatible optoelectronic devices, such as memory...
So-called “biosensors” are sensors that detect or quantify biomolecules, such as glucose, proteins, or DNA.
We are happy to announce the launch of a new Advanced journal family member: Advanced Biosystems!
Liu et al. have developed a template-free, one-pot synthesis of amphoteric Janus-type yolk-shell nanoparticles (YSN) with dual adsorption capability.
A microRNA-responsive drug release system will strengthen the selectiveness of the photodynamic therapy system.
Liquid crystals with a bent-core have revolutionized research in soft condensed matter chemistry and physics.
This nanocarrier shows excellent oxygen-carrying properties and ATP-responsive drug release, which makes it a potent agent for cancer therapy.
