A research team has developed an innovative nanomotor-based strategy to improve immunotherapy for bladder cancer. The study, published in the journal Nature Communications, offers a promising alternative to the limitations of existing treatments. The rese

Scientists have developed copper oxide nanoparticles which can be coated onto implanted medical devices to reduce the risk of infection after operations. A team at Nottingham Trent University has led the work, which it is hoped will also help to tackle ov

A platform developed nearly 20 years ago previously used to detect protein interactions with DNA and conduct accurate COVID-19 testing has been repurposed to create a highly sensitive water contamination detection tool.

A research has developed a method to detect harmful heavy metals through a selective catalytic double metal single atom in redox reactions.

In a significant advancement for boosting renewable energy generation development, the School of Engineering of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has taken the lead in breaking through studies of the nanoscale properties of perovs

A research team led by Professor Takayuki Hoshino of Nagoya University's Graduate School of Engineering in Japan has demonstrated the world's smallest shooting game by manipulating nanoparticles in real time, resulting in a game that is played with part

Imagine if antibodies, proteins such as insulin, or even COVID-19 and flu vaccines could be consumed orally instead of via injection. This vision is closer than ever, according to a new study by Technion researchers published in the Journal of Controlled

A unique protein designed by Cedars-Sinai Cancer investigators can cross the protective blood–brain barrier safely and deliver therapy directly into cancerous tumor cells, a preclinical study shows. The findings, which could help clinicians target brain t

Apical periodontitis, a chronic and hard-to-treat dental infection, affects more than half of the population worldwide and is the leading cause of tooth loss. Root canal is the standard treatment, but existing approaches to treat the infection have many l

A technological advancement from Tel Aviv University has, for the first time, enabled the application of the scientific phenomenon of superlubricity in electronic components. As a result, the research team successfully harnessed frictionless sliding to si

Using an approach called DNA origami, scientists at Caltech have developed a technique that could lead to cheaper, reusable biomarker sensors for quickly detecting proteins in bodily fluids, eliminating the need to send samples out to lab centers for test

Hydrogen nano-clusters at low temperatures display 'superfluidity'—a quantum state of frictionless flow only previously observed in helium.
