(a) Conventional chimeric VLP vaccine requires first producing fusion viral proteins conjugated with self-assembling modules by challengeable gene design and expression, and then carrying out ...

Scientists at Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU) and at Nanjing University have combined a widely used medical polymer with a natural blood protein to develop a new nanoparticle drug delivery ...

A spider-web Janus membrane combines directional moisture transport, heat modulation, triboelectric power generation and ...

The study focuses on laser ablation in liquids (LAL) as a promising alternative to traditional nanoparticle synthesis. The technique uses ultra-short laser pulses to break down metal targets submerged ...

Nanoparticles exhibit distinct physical and chemical properties compared to bulk materials, making them valuable in applications such as electronics, photovoltaics, catalysis, and biomedical sciences.

Five years later, we can tell the tale of using the tools of science, we were able to turn the tide on SARS-CoV-2 and, in the process, rewrite the playbook on pandemic preparedness. Through ...
