Proteins prefer to not work individually but rather form larger complexes similar to the molecular machines that facilitate cell communication, transport cargo in their interiors or replicate their own DNA.
The invention of the carbon nanobrush, which is a new nano carbon material, was announced by NEC Corporation on June 30, 2016. Carbon nanobrush is a fibrous aggregate of carbon nanohorns that are single-walled. NEC has globally become the first company to develop the carbon nanobrush.
A new research has adopted a unique method to improve the efficiency of chemotherapy administered to metastatic tumor. The approach involves subjecting the tumor to radiation and when the radiation triggers expressions of a molecule, striking the molecule with nanoparticles loaded with drugs.
UC Merced researchers are now focused on studying the new Zeiss Gemini SEM 500 scanning electron microscope, first of its type, installed in the US. This SEM can be used for viewing extremely small things
A team of researchers from Clarkson University has recently announced a significant conclusion that could have huge impacts on the futuristic growth of the nano-manufacturing industry. Their research to develop a model that will help in the process of random sequential adsorption (RSA) highlights that even a small doubt in the location of the lattice landing sites can majorly affect the density of the deposit that has been permanently formed.
An EPFL-based startup, Nanoga, recently developed a new method to place a nanoscopic watermark onto ceramic or glass. It is not possible to fake products with this watermark, which is unseen by the naked eye and appears only when exposed to ultraviolet light.
The discovery power of the gene chip is coming to nanotechnology. A tool to test millions (possibly billions) of different nanoparticles in a rapid manner and at a specific time in order to determine the best particle for a particular use has been developed by researchers from the Northwestern University.
The standard Petri dish comprising of flat electrodes is deemed to be insufficient to study the working of brain cells and also to assess the impact of medication on separate cells. Cells are expected to increase within three-dimensional surroundings as far as realistic studies are concerned.
An international team has discovered an elegant way to decouple organic nanosheets grown on metal surfaces. After iodine intercalation, measurements at the synchrotron source BESSY II of Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) showed that a network of organic molecules behaved almost as it was free-standing.
A team of physicists at BESSY II analyzed an artificial structure comprising of alternating layers of ferromagnetic and superconducting materials. The team observed that the charge density waves stimulated by the interfaces were found to deeply extend into the superconducting regions, suggesting new methods to control superconductivity. The findings are featured in Nature Materials.
