Gold nanoparticles that behave like a liquid open path to adaptive materials

When inorganic nanoparticles come together, their optical, electronic, and magnetic properties depend strongly on how they are arranged. Being able to reorganize these arrangements in a controlled way could therefore provide ...

DNA 'barcodes' help researchers pinpoint gold nanoparticles that can strike cancer at its power source

Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a high-throughput method to identify gold nanoparticles capable of delivering therapies directly to mitochondria (the energy centers inside cancer cells). ...

Nanoparticles overcome drug-resistant cancer via sequential drug release and photothermal therapy

Cancer cells frequently develop the ability to expel anticancer drugs before they can work—a phenomenon called multidrug resistance (MDR)—which is one of the leading reasons why chemotherapy fails in patients. Research published ...

Sprinkling nanoparticles on spintronics

Today, I want to walk you through a deceptively simple innovation from the lab at Loughborough University (PI: Prof Marco Peccianti): what happens when we decorate a spintronic heterostructure with a sparse layer of plasmonic ...

Targeting tumor supporting cells: Lipid nanoparticles advance CAR T success in pancreatic cancer

Often diagnosed when surgery is no longer an option, pancreatic cancer is one of the most difficult cancers to treat and has one of the lowest rates of survival among major malignancies. Like many solid tumors, the most common ...
