Iron oxide-incorporated conjugated polymer nanoparticles, also known as conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs), are highly fluorescent particles composed of a semiconductor light-emitting polymer ...

Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have developed a simplified version of biodegradable nanoparticles that can "educate" the immune system to find and destroy disease-causing cells throughout ...

Polymer nanoparticles could provide a new way to fight underarm odor without disturbing the balance of skin bacteria or causing irritation (ACS Appl. Bio. Mater. 2019, DOI: 10.1021/acsabm.9b00388).

A black powder of spherical carbon nanoparticles with specific properties can be synthesized using the hydrothermal method. Surface modifications can be achieved by chemically bonding organic ...

Polymeric nanoparticles are nanoscale particles composed of natural or synthetic polymers, typically ranging in size from 10 to 1000 nanometers. These nanoparticles have gained significant attention ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Development of an effective approach for delivering a new drug is as important as inventing a new drug. Even if a developed new drug has excellent pharmacokinetic and therapeutic ...

An AIST research team has developed a certified reference material (CRM) with a single degree of polymerization without distribution of molecular weight, even though it is an artificially manufactured ...

Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have developed a nanoparticle — an extremely tiny biodegradable container — that has the potential to improve the delivery of messenger ribonucleic acid ...

Polymer gels are three-dimensional cross-linked polymer networks swollen in solvents. They are soft and capable of large deformations, with the network of long polymer molecules holding the solvent in ...
