If we consider the views of materials scientists then viruses can be termed as organic nanoparticles and since their surface has specific tools it can cross the barriers of the host cells. As a result viruses are implemented in materials sciences as...
Indians too are realizing the benefits of nanotechnology. Researchers at IIT Madras have developed a water purifier which uses nanotechnology. This can be regarded as the world's first nanoparticle based water filter. This water purifier will be...
For all those speed freaks who want to live life in the fast lane, here is a nanotechnology battery powered motorcycle which can reach 0 to 60 mph in just under 1.5 seconds. This is KillaCycle which regarded as the quickest electric motorcycle in the...
Counterfeiting can be really disastrous and it is responsible for millions of dollars of losses world wide each year. Now nanotechnology will be taking care of fake art pieces in the world of art. At times it becomes really difficult to figure out...
Now one can easily detect specific sequences of DNA as Purdue researchers have found out that nanopore channels can emerge as an instrument for genomic applications in environmental monitoring, medicine and homeland security. Created using silicon,...
Cell biology is set to gain from nanotechnology as researchers of College of Engineering have successfully created a carbon nanotube tipped pipette which can contribute towards study in DNA sequencing and organelle-targeted drug delivery. This is being.
How about composite films inspired from mollusk shells? University of Michigan and Northwestern University researchers have created a high performance composite film which has been inspired from natural nanostructure of nacre. Let me tell you this is...
How about getting invisible, probably this was always a childhood dream of mine. Nanotechnology has gone ahead to realize this dream of a lot of us by creating an optical cloaking device which can make objects invisible by moving light around whatever..
Up till now people of New Zealand had been generating electricity from silicon based photo electric solar cells but now Massey University researchers have developed a solar cell technology which can generate electricity at one tenth of the cost. The...
