Over the course of their journey from the open fields to the produce displays at grocery stores, fresh vegetables and fruits can sometimes become contaminated by microorganisms. These items can then spoil other produce, spreading the contamination further and increasing the number of food items that can cause illnesses. A new nanoparticle coating prevents that.
Scientists have developed a type of nanomedicine based on multi-functional graphene that allows for targeted cancer treatment at molecular level.
A team of researchers have managed to grow ultra-thin material on silicon that can power small electronic devices.
In a recent study, scientists showed that ion transport near a hydrophobic interface is dependent not only on applied voltage, but on the type of ion.
Electronic skin monitors body's vitals signs while being powered by sweat.
Researchers report tunable point defects in hydroxyl fused silica enabled by ultrashort laser pulses for anti-counterfeiting and functional module fabrication.
The basic units of a quantum computer can be rearranged in 2D to solve typical design and operation challenges.
A new way to deliver therapeutic proteins inside the body uses an acoustically sensitive carrier to encapsulate the proteins and ultrasound to image and guide the package to the exact location required. Ultrasound then breaks the capsule, allowing the protein to enter the cell.
