Next-gen nano technologies that can prevent infection and diagnose disease are set to transform the medical industry as this important UniSA research is awarded more than $2 million dollars under the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) 2021 Investigator Grants.
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, there's been a worldwide shortage of face masks -- particularly, the N95 ones worn by health care workers.
For decades, scientists have explored the use of liposomes -- hollow spheres made of lipid bilayers -- to deliver chemotherapy drugs to tumor cells.
Living cells inside the body could be placed under surveillance--their location and migration noninvasively tracked in real time over many days--using a new method developed by researchers at KAUST.
Graphene, due to being incredibly lightweight and impressively durable, could be the ideal solution to the production of supremely efficient audio devices. Particularly headphones.

Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology (Plasma Technology) has today launched a revolutionary Ion Beam Etch (IBE) solution delivering the step change needed to address fundamental challenges in manufacturing slanted Surface Relief Gratings (SRG) for Augmented Reality (AR) applications.
What if doctors could not only diagnose a COVID-19 infection but identify which patients are at the greatest risk of death before any major complications arise- One Michigan State University scientist believes nanotechnology may be the answer.
Testing of blood, saliva, urine or tissue samples from humans or animals to diagnose and detect diseases, like COVID-19, at an early stage, requires systems that are fast, easy to use, and widely available.
The fusion of fluid mechanics and acoustics is known as acoustofluidics, which offers a contact-free, quick, and effective handling of fluids and suspended particles.
Uniqsis reports that the Department of Chemistry, Materials and Chemical Engineering at the Politecnico di Milano (Italy) has invested in a FlowLab™ Scale continuous flow reactor to assist them in 'green' chemical synthesis of pharmaceutically-relevant compounds.
At The Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research of Osaka University, a team of researchers has devised a new liquid-phase fabrication method for synthesizing nanocellulose films with multiple axes of alignment.
The study, commissioned by the EU Observatory for Nanomaterials (EUON), found that the lack of standardised, validated methods and the use of varying testing protocols makes it difficult to compare results and evaluate whether nanomaterials can penetrate the skin.
Magnetic field sensors are largely used in industry, medicine, as well as in applied and fundamental physics.
Writing in NanoResearch, a team at UMass Amherst reports that they have developed bioelectronic ammonia gas sensors that are among the most sensitive ever made. ate with other bacteria.
Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, or Chardonnay - when you reach for your favourite white, it's the clean, clear sparkle that first catches your eye.
