To design nanoproducts with improved therapeutic efficiency and controlled toxicity, we need to understand the mechanisms of cellular uptake and exocytosis of nanoparticles.
Results for "nanoparticles"
Melanin-Based Nanoparticles for Imaging of Tumor Vasculature
A novel melanin-based contrast agent may help assess the tumor vasculature after antiangiogenic treatment via Dynamic Contrast Enhanced Photoacoustic Imaging.
December 3 – Micro and nanoparticles of native and modified cassava starches as carriers of the antimicrobial potassium sorbate, published in Starch
Porous silicon nanoparticles improve diabetic wound healing
Researchers from the University of South Australia reveal how they use non-toxic porous silicon nanoparticles (pSi NPs) for the controlled release of FnAb to diabetic wounds.
Immune response to starch-based nanoparticles: advantage or disadvantage?
Natural polymers- based nanoparticles are widely used for biomedical purposes as they are highly biocompatible and biodegradable. Yet potential unexpected side effects have to be taken into account.
Porous silicon nanoparticles for hydrogen production
Researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China have developed mesoporous silicon nanospheres that can be used for photocatalytic hydrogen production.
Plasmon-mediated photocatalysis – Pd nanoparticles in a double role
Pd nanosheets function both as broadband light absorbers and as synthetic catalysts for the dehydrogenation of formic acid to hydrogen and oxygen.
Reducing Adsorption of Proteins on Nanoparticles
To avoid an undesired protein adsorption, nanoparticles were masked with poly(2-oxazoline)s resulting in a stealth coating comparable or superior to PEG.
Polymer Nanoparticles for Targeted Cancer Therapy
A novel method for preparing biodegradable polyurethane nanoparticles that will actively recognize cancer cells.
Precipitation “on demand” – towards surfactant-free nanoparticles
Researchers from Germany introduce acid-triggered precipitation which facilitates the removal of surfactant fragments from nanoparticles simplifying the purification and enabling nanoparticle precipitation “on demand.”
