Nanoparticles containing iron could be toxic for nerve cells and may even interfere with signal transmitting extensions formation. Iron is considered healthy for human beings and even iron oxide nanoparticles were thought to be good for human health...
This discovery would surely help in churning out better drugs for treatment of diseases. U.S researchers have found out that string like nanoparticles equal to viruses which move in the blood for up to ten times longer as compared to spherical...
In the field of space rocket engines are dependant on chemical propulsion and almost all of the spacecrafts are using some kind of chemical rocket for launching and attitude control. Researchers have been studying electric propulsion and EP systems...
Up till now fabrication of small features was quite difficult and expensive too but now researchers have come up with a nanotechnology fabrication method under which production of 3 D polymer line structures has become easier with two new photon...
The idea that measuring nanomechanical oscillations, that of the tiny vibrating silicon strips, only a few hundred atoms thick is not that easy, is no more true. Researchers at the Cornell University have designed a solution - defining as 'reach out..
This can be termed as a breakthrough invention in the field of nanotechnology. A protein sensor has been developed by U.S researchers which are ultra sensitive and can detect changes in concentration which are more than five orders of magnitude. In a...
Scientists have grown metal crystal configurations that have never been seen before! These new configurations of crystal pour in promises in the field of biosensors, biological imaging, drug delivery and catalytic converters.

Japanese scientists have created a molecular device resembling a 'scissor' that can be used to control genes, proteins and other molecules in the body. This scissor can be opened and closed with the effect of light.
This device, created by Takuzo...
The first comprehensive study of the properties of boron nitrite has been completed on a nanometric scale. The thorough control and knowledge boron nitride's properties - boron's binary compound consisting of equal proportions of boron and nitrogen -...
