A new form of agricultural pest control could one day take root—one that treats crop infestations deep under the ground in a targeted manner with less pesticide. Engineers at the University of ...

Silver nanoparticles are valued for their antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer effects, but conventional production methods often use hazardous chemicals and require large volumes of energy.

Polymeric nanoparticles are nanoscale-sized objects constructed from polymers such as polyethylene glycol (PEG) or polylactide-co-glycolide (PLGA), with applications in the in vitro delivery of ...

Scientists at NYU Abu Dhabi developed a new cancer therapy that uses lasers and nanotechnology to target tumors deep in the body without damaging the surrounding tissue. According to the January study ...

(Nanowerk News) Technologies based on nanoscale materials – for example, particles that are more than 10,000 times smaller than the period at the end of this sentence – play a growing role in our ...

Johns Hopkins researchers have identified minuscule particles that supercharge therapeutic cancer vaccines, which train the immune system to attack tumors. These new lipid nanoparticles—tiny ...

Researchers at UChicago have developed a nanoparticle system that can effectively deliver mRNA to insulin-producing cells, protecting them from the body’s autoimmune response ...
