Nanoparticle research is providing valuable ... electrodeposition of a PtNi nanolayer on an electrode. Using advanced imaging tools, the researchers were able to observe, in real-time, how the ...

Targeting magnetic nanoparticles to tumours then applying an alternating magnetic field can improve the contrast for infrared thermal imaging. Like inflamed tissues, malignant tumours have higher ...

It is based on a high-precision, short-wave infrared imaging method that can record rare-earth doped nanoparticle photoluminescence lifetimes in the micro-to millisecond range.

Aoki’s Quantum-state Controlled MRI Group at QST has been working on ways to make MRI better at imaging tumours by developing nanoparticle contrast agents that respond and amplify the signal for ...

Nanoparticles that exhibit localization to specific organs or to sites of disease via biological mechanisms, such as the RES or the EPR effect, are known as 'passive targeting agents'. One of the ...

Metallic nanoparticles are widely used in applications such as catalysis, sensing, imaging, and drug delivery. Quantum dots are composed of semiconductor materials, such as cadmium selenide (CdSe), ...

This aspect is particularly valuable for catalytic applications and for nanomedicine, where nanoparticles are designed for targeted drug delivery. Additionally, their quantum effects give rise to ...

A pioneering study has unveiled the Au-HN-1 nanosystem, a cutting-edge approach that promises to transform the diagnosis and treatment of tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC).

The 3D electron microscopy imaging is available using Serial Block Face (SB-EM) and Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscopy (FIB-SEM) or Electron Tomography (ET) Electron tomography is TEM based ...

Photon-counting CT scanning is the next-generation of computer tomography diagnostics, providing precise, multi-color imaging ...

We used lipid nanoparticles to deliver mRNA and siRNA to human PCa cells to evaluate our technique's ability to both restore the lost PTEN and silence the overexpressed AR. Our strategy could also ...

For example, this feature could be beneficial to study the dynamics of nanoparticle drug delivery in cancerous cells and other in-vitro samples. LIMA allows the imaging of particlesof a few nanometers ...
