Bacteria ferry nanoparticles into cells for early diagnosis, treatment
Researchers at Purdue University have shown that common bacteria can deliver a valuable cargo of "smart nanoparticles" into a cell to precisely position sensors, drugs or DNA for the early diagnosis and treatment of various diseases. view more (2007-06-14)
New £2 million nanotechnology laboratory is opened
A new £2 million laboratory that will place the University of Bath at the centre of nanotechnology research was formally opened on Wednesday (June 9). Scientists using the new nanofabrication centre can create structures that are only a few hundred atoms in size, or about a millionth of a millimetre, opening up important areas of research in... view more...

Radio waves fire up nanotubes embedded in tumors, destroying liver cancer
Cancer cells treated with carbon nanotubes can be destroyed by non-invasive radio waves that heat up the nanotubes while sparing untreated tissue, a research team led by scientists at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center and Rice University has shown in preclinical experiments. view more (2007-11-02)
New 'nano-positioners' may have atomic-scale precision
Engineers have created a tiny motorized positioning device that has twice the dexterity of similar devices being developed for applications that include biological sensors and more compact, powerful computer hard drives. view more (2008-08-21)
Nanowire biocompatibility in the brain: So far so good
The biological safety of nanotechnology, in other words, how the body reacts to nanoparticles, is a hot topic. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have managed for the first time to carry out successful experiments involving the injection of so-called 'nanowires.' view more (2009-10-23)
Nanotechnology may increase longevity of dental fillings
Tooth-colored fillings may be more attractive than silver ones, but the bonds between the white filling and the tooth quickly age and degrade. view more (2009-07-02)
U-M physicists create first atomic-scale map of quantum dots
University of Michigan physicists have created the first atomic-scale maps of quantum dots, a major step toward the goal of producing "designer dots" that can be tailored for specific applications. view more (2009-09-30)
HBV genotype B/B3 and C/C1 are the major genotypes in Indonesia?
Previous studies revealed that HBV genotypes as well as mutations in the core promoter, precore or HBx gene have been shown to have an association with the clinical outcome of liver disease, however, this is still controversial. view more (2009-09-16)
Nanoparticle treatment for burns curbs infection, reduces inflammation
Treating second-degree burns with a nanoemulsion lotion sharply curbs bacterial growth and reduces inflammation that otherwise can jeopardize recovery, University of Michigan scientists have shown in initial laboratory studies. view more (2009-09-15)
Biological motors sort molecules one by one on a chip
Researchers from Delft University of Technology's Kavli Institute of Nanoscience have discovered how to use the motors of biological cells in extremely small channels on a chip. view more (2006-05-12)
A researcher of UPV/EHU has designed nanomagnets for industry
The PhD, defended by chemist Sonia Moralejo García at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), achieved a well-defined line for the manufacture of nanomagnets and other magnetic devices of wide industrial application. view more (2008-02-13)
Nowhere to hide -- new ultra-powerful microscope probes atomic world
A unique electron microscope, the first of its kind in the world, was unveiled yesterday at the STFC Daresbury Laboratory in Warrington. view more (2008-01-25)
New property found in ancient mineral lodestone
Using the latest methods for nanofabrication, a team led by Rice University physicists has discovered a surprising new electronic property in one of the earliest-known and most-studied magnetic minerals on Earth -- lodestone, also known as magnetite. view more (2007-12-18)
Harvard University engineers demonstrate quantum cascade laser nanoantenna
In a major feat of nanotechnology engineering researchers from Harvard University have demonstrated a laser with a wide-range of potential applications in chemistry, biology and medicine. view more (2007-10-23)
Singapore researchers first to transform carbon dioxide into methanol
Scientists at Singapore's Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology (IBN) have succeeded in unlocking the potential of carbon dioxide -- a common greenhouse gas -- by converting it into a more useful product. view more (2009-04-16)
When nano may not be nano
The same properties of nanoparticles that make them so appealing to manufacturers may also have negative effects on the environment and human health. view more (2009-09-14)
Size matters: Friction, adhesion change on atomic level
Physicists have a pretty good idea of what to expect when friction and adhesion occur in the visible world. You jam on the brakes, for instance, and your tires and the highway interact to stop your car. You glue two pieces of wood together, and they stick. view more (2005-06-30)
Researchers make breakthrough in the production of double-walled carbon nanotubes
In recent years, the possible applications for double-walled carbon nanotubes have excited scientists and engineers, particularly those working on developing renewable energy technologies. view more (2008-12-23)
Scientists from the UAB and ICMAB achieve unprecedented control of formation of nanostructures
A team of researchers from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, together with researchers from ICMAB (CSIC) and other Russian and Ukrainian scientists, have discovered an unprecedented method for accurately controlling the formation of nanometric structures made of semiconducting material in the form of islands, using promising... view more...
