Shape matters in the case of cobalt nanoparticles
Shape is turning out to be a particularly important feature of some commercially important nanoparticles-but in subtle ways. view more (2009-06-18)
Extracting Metal from the Sea â€" the Environmentally Friendly Way
A novel method that uses bacteria to mine valuable minerals from the ocean has been developed. Nodules collected from the Indian Ocean seabed can be treated to extract scarce land-based minerals in an environmentally sound way, says research published in the Journal of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology. Using the marine species Bacillus M1,... view more... (2004-04-02)
Magnetic nanoparticles assembled into long chains
Chains of 1 million magnetic nanoparticles have been assembled and disassembled in a solution of suspended particles in a controlled way. view more (2005-10-21)
Tiny particles may pose threat to liver cells, say scientists
Researchers at the University of Edinburgh are to study the effects of nanoparticles on the liver. In a UK first, the scientists will assess whether nanoparticles -already found in pollution from traffic exhaust, but also used in making household goods such as paint, sunblock, food, cosmetics and clothes- can cause damage to the cells of the liver. view more (2006-04-05)
A new 'Pyrex' nanoparticle
Researchers in Switzerland have developed a new method to fabricate borosilicate glass nanoparticles. Used in microfluidic systems, these "Pyrex"-like nanoparticles are more stable when subjected to temperature fluctuations and harsh chemical environments than currently used nanoparticles made of polymers or silica glass. view more (2008-09-08)
Behavior modification could ease concerns about nanoparticles
In an advance that could help ease health and environmental concerns about the emerging nanotechnology industry, scientists are reporting development of technology for changing the behavior of nanoparticles in municipal sewage treatment plants - their main gateway into the environment. view more (2009-11-12)
Engineers Produce 'How-To' Guide for Controlling the Structure of Nanoparticles
Tiny objects known as nanoparticles are often heralded as holding great potential for future applications in electronics, medicine and other areas. view more (2009-09-24)
New insights into health and environmental effects of carbon nanoparticles
A new study raises the possibility that flies and other insects that encounter nanomaterial "hot spots," or spills, near manufacturing facilities in the future could pick up and transport nanoparticles on their bodies, transferring the particles to other flies or habitats in the environment. view more (2009-08-06)
Knocking nanoparticles off the socks
Scientists in Switzerland are reporting results of one of the first studies on the release of silver nanoparticles from laundering those anti-odor, anti-bacterial socks now on the market. view more (2009-10-29)
Toward a nanomedicine for brain cancer
In an advance toward better treatments for the most serious form of brain cancer, scientists in Illinois are reporting development of the first nanoparticles that seek out and destroy brain cancer cells without damaging nearby healthy cells. view more (2009-09-10)
Too much technology may be killing beneficial bacteria
Too much of a good thing could be harmful to the environment. For years, scientists have known about silver's ability to kill harmful bacteria and, recently, have used this knowledge to create consumer products containing silver nanoparticles. view more (2008-04-30)
Nanoparticles trigger cell death?
Nanoparticles that are one milliard of a metre in size are widely used, for example, in cosmetics and food packaging materials. view more (2008-11-13)
New technique measures chemical composition of tiny details
The method which the Eindhoven have developed is based on the radiation emitted by an object when it is irradiated by a beam of electrons. The measurable phenomenon occurs because the electrons in the beam collide with electrons in the atoms making up the object so that they enter an excited state. When the electrons return to the free state, with... view more... (2000-01-18)
Cutaneous application of nanoparticles offers hope for treatment of erectile dysfunction
Cutaneous application of nanoparticles may offer a new means of delivering drugs to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), according to findings presented at the 104th Annual Scientific Meeting of the American Urological Association (AUA). view more (2009-04-27)
Innovative nanomaterials processing points to advances in semiconductor optoelectronics
The study of semiconductor nanoparticles embedded in a matrix is currently a very active research area. These small particles have physicochemical properties quite different from those in the bulk material. view more (2005-11-15)
Targeted nanoparticles incorporating siRNA offer promise for cancer treatment
The use of targeted nanoparticles offers promising techniques for cancer treatment. Researchers in the laboratory of Mark E. Davis at the California Institute of Technology have been using small interfering RNA (siRNA), sometimes known as silencing RNA, to "silence" specific genes that are implicated in certain malignancies. view more (2007-05-21)
Do the hyper-coordinate planar transition metal atoms exist?
A study reported in Vol 51, Issue 7 (July, 2008) of Science in China Series B: Chemistry has shown that wheel-shaped structures with octa- and enneacoordinate planar cobalt, iron and nickel centered in perfect octagonal and enneagonal boron rings, are stable on corresponding potential hyper-surfaces. This suggests that the central element bonding... view more... (2008-07-01)
Nanoparticles Double Their Chances of Getting Into Sticky Situations
Chemistry researchers at the University of Warwick have found that tiny nanoparticles could be twice as likely to stick to the interface of two non mixing liquids than previously believed. view more (2009-02-17)
Sticky dust fingers the culprits
EMBARGOED UNTIL WEDNESDAY 5 NOVEMBER 19:00 HRS GMT NANOPARTICLES could give police the clearest fingerprints yet. Officers search for prints by dusting a crime scene with fluorescent powder. This sticks to the oily residue left by the fingertip, showing up the whorls and ridges. But sometimes the prints are not clear enough to finger a suspect.... view more... (2003-11-05)
Silicon nanoparticles enhance performance of solar cells
Placing a film of silicon nanoparticles onto a silicon solar cell can boost power, reduce heat and prolong the cell's life, researchers now report. view more (2007-08-21)
