Nanotechnology targets cancer cells with dumbbell-like particles

By joining an iron oxide nanoparticle bearing a tumor-specific antibody with a gold nanoparticle bearing an anti-cancer drug, scientists created a dumbbell-like nanotech vehicle that delivered the drug into breast cancer cells.

Nanotechnology proposed to improve bone implants

Nanotech advances are leading toward bone implants that are are smart, multifunctional devices that will be capable of improved integration with surrounding bone tissue, and that will resist inflammation, bacterial growth, and the recurrence of bone cancer.

Another nanotechnology approach to gene regulation for cancer therapy

Another promising nanotech approach to harnessing the potential of siRNA molecules is to pack them on the surface of gold nanoparticles.

Real-time quality control for nanotechnology

Two publications in the current issue of the IOP journal Nanotechnology report techniques that may bring real-time quality control to two different nanotech fabrication methods.

Nanotechnology reversibly writes two-nanometer-thick lines for nanoelectronics

An atomic force microscope (AFM) can be used to write and erase two-nanometer-thick conducting lines at the interface between atomic layers of two different metal oxide insulators.

Nanotechnology may replace platinum catalyst for fuel cells with doped carbon nanotubes

The discovery that nitrogen-doped, metal-free carbon nanotubes make better electrodes than do platinum nanoparticles may open the way for inexpensive nanotech fuel cells.

Ordered high density arrays of self-assembled copolymer for nanotechnology

A sawing and annealing process that creates regular nanoscale features on the surface of a sapphire crystal promises a way of making nanotech memories of up to 10 Terabits per square inch without the need of photolithography.

Nanotechnology drafts plant viruses for drug delivery

Plant viruses are a new addition to the long list of types of nanoparticles being investigated as next generation nanotech cancer therapies.

Stamping devices for nanotechnology using metallic glasses

Advances in using amorphous metal alloys may make possible an inexpensive nanotech version of the molding technique used to make DVDs.

Can nanotechnology retard desertification?

The application is hydrophobic sand, which retains moisture near the roots of desert plants by virtue of a proprietary nanostructured coating on the grains of sand.
