Rapid movements of living biomolecules visualised
Dutch researcher Chris Molenaar has made the rapid movements of proteins, DNA and RNA molecules visible in living cells. With this technique researchers can study the dynamics of biomolecules in their natural environment. Molenaar developed a method which makes it possible to follow the movements of RNA molecules in living cells. The researcher... view more... (2003-06-24)
Gold nanoparticles could improve antisense cancer drugs
In the fight against cancer, antisense drugs, which prevent genes from producing harmful proteins such as those that cause cancer, have the promise to be more effective than conventional drugs, but the pace of development of these new drugs has been slow. view more (2006-05-19)
All-in-one nanoparticle: A Swiss Army knife for nanomedicine
Nanoparticles are being developed to perform a wide range of medical uses -- imaging tumors, carrying drugs, delivering pulses of heat. Rather than settling for just one of these, researchers at the University of Washington have combined two nanoparticles in one tiny package. view more (2009-07-28)
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)
Research measures movement of nanomaterials in simple model food chain
New research shows that while engineered nanomaterials can be transferred up the lowest levels of the food chain from single celled organisms to higher multicelled ones, the amount transferred was relatively low and there was no evidence of the nanomaterials concentrating in the higher level organisms. view more (2008-06-02)
Topical Papers in Biochemical Journal - Selective determination of mitochandrial chelatable iron in viable cells with a new fluorescent sensor
This paper by Petrat and colleagues marks an important advance in our understanding of the regulation of iron in the human body. Real-time changes in the concentration of the ionized form of iron (Fe2+) can now be monitored within the mitochondria of living cells for the first time, thanks to the technique described in this article. For some... view more... (2002-02-08)
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)
New discovery reveals fate of nanoparticles in human cells
Scientists funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) have uncovered what happens to biomimetic nanoparticles when they enter human cells. view more (2009-09-23)
Nanoparticle Could Help Detect Many Diseases Early
Most people think of hydrogen peroxide as a topical germ killer, but the medicine cabinet staple is gaining steam in the medical community as an early indicator of disease in the body. view more (2007-08-21)
UCLA researchers develop new nanomaterials to deliver anti-cancer drugs to cells
Researchers at UCLA have successfully manipulated nanomaterials to create a new drug-delivery system that promises to solve the challenge of the poor water solubility of today's most promising anticancer drugs and thereby increase their effectiveness. view more (2007-06-08)
Growing green gold
A new way to make gold form inside the cells of a micro-organism is published today in the Institute of Physics journal Nanotechnology. Researchers from the National Chemical Laboratory and the Armed Forces Medical College, both in Pune, India, have been using “green chemistry” to develop an eco-friendly way to make tiny gold particles... view more...

Singapore nanotechnology combats fatal brain infections
Doctors may get a new arsenal for meningitis treatment and the war on drug-resistant bacteria and fungal infections with novel peptide nanoparticles developed by scientists at the Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology (IBN) of Singapore and reported in Nature Nanotechnology. view more (2009-06-29)
Nanoparticles cross blood-brain barrier to enable 'brain tumor painting'
Brain cancer is among the deadliest of cancers. It's also one of the hardest to treat. view more (2009-08-04)
Thin films of silicon nanoparticles roll into flexible nanotubes
By depositing nanoparticles onto a charged surface, researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have crafted nanotubes from silicon that are flexible and nearly as soft as rubber. view more (2005-06-15)
Nanoparticles hitchhike on red blood cells: a potential new method for drug delivery
Researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara have discovered that attaching polymeric nanoparticles to the surface of red blood cells dramatically increases the in vivo lifetime of the nanoparticles. view more (2007-06-27)
Making nanoparticles in artificial cells
Two new construction manuals are now available for the world's smallest lamps. Based on these protocols, scientists from the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces have tailor-made nanoparticles that can be used as position lights on cell proteins and, possibly in the future as well, as light sources for display screens or for optical... view more...
