Researchers at UC San Diego have discovered that iron-containing nanoparticles being tested for use in several biomedical applications can be toxic to nerve cells and interfere with the formation of their signal-transmit...
Gene therapy - the idea of using genetic instructions rather than drugs to treat disease - has tickled scientists' imaginations for decades, but is not yet a viable therapeutic method. One sizeable hurdle is getting ...
Researchers in Japan have developed a pair of molecular-scale scissors that open and close in response to light. The tiny scissors are the first example of a molecular machine capable of mechanically manipulating molecul...
The problem of efficiently delivering drugs, especially those that are hydrophobic or water-repellant, to tumors or other disease sites has long challenged scientists to develop innovative delivery systems that keep thes...
MIT researchers have created an inexpensive method to screen for millions of different biomolecules (DNA, proteins, etc.) in a single sample--a technology that could make possible the development of low-cost clinical bed...
The Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology (IBN) is arming teachers here with new tools to revitalize their teaching of science in the classrooms. IBN has launched a series of educational Kits to help secondary s...
Azaya Therapeutics has been granted a patent from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for Azaya's novel PSL nanotechnology platform. The PSL technology allows for the consistent loading, sizing and stabilizing of ac...
In experiments with laboratory mice that bear aggressive human breast cancers, UC Davis researchers have used hot nanoprobes to slow the growth of tumors -- without damage to surrounding healthy tissue. The researchers d...
When the fluoride modified OsseoSpeed implant was launched in 2004 it was based on solid pre-clinical and clinical documentation and in order to fully understand and utilize the full potential of OsseoSpeed, Astra Tech h...
The Finnish nanotechnology industry is booming unlike ever before. The number of Finnish companies involved in the nanotechnology sector has grown 111% in just a two-year period. Of these, 22% have a commercial product b...
