Now, magnetic iron oxide nano-particles can help in detecting tumors and meta-static lesions! They are found to be capable of acting as powerful contrast agents for use with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Similarly, quantum dots - a nano-scale,...
A new welding technology is being developed in Switzerland that can work on the scale of a billionth of a meter and can be used to assemble electronic components at the smallest possible scale.
One of such techniques is called 'Nanorobotic' spot...
Arizona State University researchers are doing something different- they are combining solar energy and nanotechnology in order to come up with an economical source of household energy for the country.
This is being done in order to overcome the...
Researchers at the Nanotech Institute at the University of Texas at Dallas have spun carbon Nanotubes into a yarn just 2% of the thickness of a human hair.
This artificial muscle is claimed to exert 100 times the force, per area, of a natural...
These days researchers are continuously developing Nano devices that can be useful to mankind.
Taking the research another step forward Professor Nadrian C. Seeman and his student Baoquan Ding has developed a DNA cassette through which a...
This is the latest Nanoscale Optical Profiler from Hyphenated Systems. Called the HS200A NanoScale Optical Profiler, this profiler plays an important part of analysis in the case of inspection, critical metrology, quality control applications and...
Some amazing development in the field of nanotechnology! Rice University chemists have found out a way of assembling silver and gold nanoparticle building blocks into larger structures.
In this technique hydrophobic effect is used. Let me tell you...
Strong developments are taking place in the field of nanotechnology but the slow patent process has become a cause of worry among the companies. In 2004 it just took two years to get a patent but now the time has doubled and companies are worried that...
Up till now we knew that coated iron oxide nanoparticles were quite effective as MRI contrast agents for detection of metastatic lesions in lymph nodes and now researchers at the Kyungpook National University, Korea have figured out that nanoparticles...
It has been found out that cancer vaccines are quite effective in harnessing the immune system for killing cancer cells and preventing metastasizing of tumors but clinical trials have produced mixed results. Though DNA based vaccines have been found...
In a latest development in the field of nanotechnology, researchers have devised out a means for controlling the diameter of carbon nanotubes and it can be shrunk to zero nanometers. This could probably help in incorporating nanotubes in new...
Bayer has successfully developed Baytubes carbon nanotubes which could be easily implemented in industrial applications and it has been found out that they help in improving the strength and stiffness of plastic and also make it conductive.
It is...
We are all aware that healing of a wound takes a lot of time and a number of researches have been going on in order to make it a faster process. This becomes more difficult in the case of burn wounds and in order to make this process a little faster...
