Magnetic nanoparticles with ionic liquids for water purification In many parts of the world, access to clean drinking water is far from certain. Filtration of large volumes of water, however... Read more
Experimental Rice U. therapy could repair mutations that cause genetic diseases A new technology that relies on a moth-infecting virus and nanomagnets could be used to edit defective genes t... Read more
By combining, in a liposome, magnetic nanoparticles and photosensitizers that are simultaneously and remotely activated by external physical stimuli (a magnetic field and light), scientists... Read more
By loading magnetic nanoparticles with drugs and dressing them in biochemical camouflage, Houston Methodist researchers say they can destroy blood clots 100 to 1,000 times faster than a comm... Read more
Many people imagine robots today as clunky, metal versions of humans, but scientists are forging new territory in the field of ‘soft robotics.’ One of the latest advances is a fl... Read more
They succeeded in efficiently inducing natural death (apoptosis) of epithelial cancer cells. A MANA research team has developed a new nanofiber mesh which is capable of simultaneously realiz... Read more
New research in The FASEB Journal suggests that with magnetic guidance, specially designed nanoparticles can help deliver genes to injured arteries, using stents as the delivery platform Ste... Read more
