Nanoparticle researchers spend most of their time on one thing: counting and measuring nanoparticles. Each step of the way, ...

A team of researchers succeeded in adapting an AI system to reliably assist with making nanoparticle measurements which speeds up the research process significantly.

Colloidal nanoparticles are particles that operate at the nanoscale, specifically between 1 to 1000 nanometers, suspended in a fluid. These nanoparticles can consist of various materials, such as ...

Titania nanoparticles damage enveloped viruses by directly binding with membrane phospholipids – a previously unknown mode of antiviral action ...

Nanoparticle interactions in colloidal suspensions are a critical area of research due to their applications in various fields, including materials science, pharmaceuticals, and environmental ...

and carbon nanoparticles. We often study these systems away from equilibrium, for instance in response to an external electric field. More recently, we moved towards non-equilibrium active colloidal ...

These reactions lead to the formation of colloidal particles that gradually develop into a gel. 1 Reaction conditions influence sol stability and nanoparticle properties. Acidic conditions slow ...

Dynamic light scattering is a powerful and versatile technique for measuring the size and distribution of nanoparticles and polymers in solution. By providing rapid and non-invasive analysis, DLS has ...
