Researchers created a proof-of-concept DNA origami device that encodes messages as nano-Morse patterns and conceals them inside tubular nanostructures. The system combines symmetric encryption, molecular verification, structural steganography, and block normalization to support confidential and authenticated communication.
This review demonstrates how nanozyme aptasensors combine synthetic enzyme-like nanomaterials with DNA or RNA aptamers to enhance selective biosensing across clinical, environmental, and food-safety applications. The paper compares three major sensor designs, NAISA, adsorption/desorption-based systems, and amplification-based platforms, while outlining the key challenges for point-of-care translation.
This review proposes eco-nanozymology as a framework for designing nanozymes that act as catalytic regulators in energy conversion, pollutant degradation, biomass valorization, and biogeochemical cycling. It highlights progress in nanozyme design while emphasizing that real-world safety, environmental fate, scalability, and regulatory oversight remain major challenges.
Researchers developed a voltage-directed one-pore synthesis method to form ultrathin alginate ionic nanogels inside solid-state silicon nitride nanopores. By tuning phosphate additives, metal-ion crosslinkers, and gate voltages, the nanogels combined strong ion selectivity with high pore-area-normalized osmotic power density.
Scientists review hybrid micro- and nanorobots that fuse magnetic steering with light-driven propulsion, enabling precise navigation through both tissue and water. These tiny machines promise targeted cancer therapy, biosensing, and pollutant destruction, all without onboard power or toxic fuel.
Researchers developed an AI-assisted nanotweezer platform that rapidly traps thousands of milk-derived extracellular vesicles and analyzes them without chemical labels. By combining electrohydrodynamic trapping, interferometric imaging, and deep learning, the system estimates vesicle size, refractive index, heterogeneity, and sorting potential at the single-particle level.
Nanotechnology is reshaping dermatology by improving drug delivery, photoprotection, barrier repair, follicular targeting, and antimicrobial activity across conditions such as acne, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, wounds, alopecia, and photoaging. However, the review stresses that clinical translation remains limited by formulation instability, heterogeneous evidence, insufficient long-term safety data, and inconsistent regulatory standards.
A new ACS Nano study shows how engineered peptoid nanotubes can deliver nicotinamide into injured brain tissue, restoring energy-related metabolism and reducing inflammatory damage in neonatal brain injury models.
Innovative conductive hydrogel mimics living tissue, enabling oxygen sensing and electrical control of growth factors, paving the way for biohybrid circuits.
This study reveals an engineered eight-nanobody cocktail that protects against African elapid snake venoms, outperforming traditional plasma-derived antivenoms.
