A class of ultrasmall fluorescent core-shell silica nanoparticles developed at Cornell is showing an unexpected ability to ...

Detecting cancer in the earliest stages could dramatically reduce cancer deaths because cancers are usually easier to treat ...

A team of researchers has used lipid nanoparticles loaded with mRNA—the starring technology in some COVID-19 vaccines—to noninvasively and selectively trigger cell death in living mice’s blood stem ...

Researchers have created tiny metal-based particles that push cancer cells over the edge while leaving healthy cells mostly unharmed. The particles work by increasing internal stress in cancer cells ...

Researchers have developed a magnetic nanomaterial that can kill bone cancer cells and support bone regeneration at the same ...

The research team, led by Professor Wang Weiping (left), has pioneered a new cancer- treatment strategy that amplifies cancer cell starvation for amino acids, which blocks cancer nutrient scavenging ...

A study recently published in the Journal of Cell Biology has demonstrated the endosomal transport process of nanoparticle-based formulations that leads to the effective delivery of messenger ...

Within the flourishing field of nanotechnology are nanoparticles (NPs)—particles sized about 100 nm. NPs are classified into four types: carbon, polymer, metal, and metal-oxide, and other inorganic ...

Scientists in the United Kingdom have used alumina oxide (Al₂O₃) nanoparticles (NPs) as an interfacial modifier at the hole transport layer (HTL) to increase the lifetime of perovskite solar cells.
