We demonstrate a plasmonically enhanced infrared spectroscopy technology that enables in-situ and real-time measurements of protein and nano particle interactions at ultra-high sensitivity by overcoming fundamental water absorption limitations. (C) 2014 Op ...
The controlled delivery of antibodies by immunoisolated bioimplants containing genetically engineered cells is an attractive and safe approach for chronic treatments. To reach therapeutic antibody levels there is a need to generate renewable cell lines, wh ...
Nanoscience is a young and growing field of science. It encompasses a diversity of sub-fields such as nanotechnology and nano-medicine, all of them seeking to realize the promises of nanoscale physics. Nano means: “billionth” and conceptually all nano-like ...
The success of gene therapy depends on safe and effective gene carriers. Despite being widely used, synthetic vectors based on poly(ethylenimine) (PEI), poly(l-lysine) (PLL), or poly(l-arginine) (poly-Arg) are not yet fully satisfactory. Thus, both improve ...
Since stem cells have the unique ability to produce more of themselves (i.e. to "self-renew") and to generate specialized tissue cells, they are an ideal source of cells for regenerative medicine and in vitro tissue models. In order to fully exploit this p ...
The change of intensities of optical transitions of atoms, molecules, and their ions in the near field of nanoobjects is of interest for researchers from both basic and applied points of view. The concept of a near field was used as early as the 1960s to s ...
Nanomedicine, the use of nanotechnology for biomedical applications, has potential to change the landscape of the diagnosis and therapy of many diseases. In the past several decades, the advancement in nanotechnology and material science has resulted in a ...
Gd in silica: Noncovalent confinement of a monoaqua Gd chelate into biocompatible silica nanoparticles (NPs; see figure) by a sol-gel method affords a new example of nanosized contrast agents with very high per-Gd relaxivities. Such NPs provide a route to ...
Although the pathology of Morbillivirus in the central nervous system (CNS) is well described, the molecular basis of neurodegenerative events still remains poorly understood. As a model to explore Morbillivirus-mediated CNS dysfunctions, we used canine di ...
The toxicity of two types of ultra-small zeolites (8–18 nm) with LTL- and EMT-type structures is reported. Both the LTL- and EMT-type zeolites belong to the same group of molecular sieves; they have large pores (7.1–7.5 Å) and low silica content (Si/Al = 1 ...
