Dr. Seunggun Yu and his team at KERI's Insulation Materials Research Center have developed "Hybrid Supraparticle Synthesis Technology" that can attach inorganic nanoparticles to the surface of polymer microparticles through ...
Scientists have discovered that the internal shape of tiny drug-delivery particles—called lipid nanoparticles—has a big impact on how well our cells absorb them, paving the way to more efficient vaccine and drug delivery.
A rare and bewildering intermediate between crystal and glass can be the most stable arrangement for some combinations of atoms, according to a study from the University of Michigan.
Understanding how drug delivery systems distribute in vivo remains a major challenge in developing nanomedicines. Especially in the lung, the complex and dynamic microenvironment often limits the effectiveness of existing ...
A major cause of hospital-acquired infections, the super bacteria Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), not only exhibits strong resistance to existing antibiotics but also forms a dense biofilm that blocks ...
The drug pipeline—the process through which a potential new drug gets discovered, tested, approved, and marketed—is a notoriously long and arduous process, and even the most promising drugs can languish or die on the ...
Since the time of the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates, cancer has been recognized as being sensitive to heat. Today, this principle forms the basis of hyperthermia treatment—a promising cancer therapy that uses controlled ...
Tools that offer early and accurate insight into plant health—and allow individual plant interventions—are key to increasing crop yields as environmental pressures increasingly impact horticulture and agriculture.
Excessive nutrients in wastewater can lead to detrimental discharges into natural water bodies, prompting harmful algal blooms with severe environmental and economic repercussions. To address this pressing issue, a team of ...
Limited penetration depth into tumor tissues continues to hinder the development of nanotherapeutics for cancer treatment. A novel self-propelled ferroptosis nanoinducer developed by Southern Medical University was able to ...
