Targeting highly metastatic melanomas with nanotechnology

Using a promising nanotech approach to deliver the RNA molecules, a type of nanoparticle described as a neutral liposome was administered to mice bearing melanoma tumors and found to cause a significant decrease in tumor growth and in the number of metastatic tumor colonies.

Tracking single molecules in living cells using nanotechnology

Previously unknown spectral properties of carbon nanotubes functionalized with DNA have been exploited to create nanotech sensors that can simultaneously detect several different substances, in real time, within living cells, to single molecule sensitivity.

Study of the FDA's ability to regulate nanotechnology-based dietary supplements to be released

How well prepared is the FDA to regulate nanotech products? Perhaps not very well, at least in the area of dietary supplements.

Tunneling electrons could power nanotechnology

Molecular dynamics simulations show that electron tunneling through nanoscale rotary motors based on carbon nanotube shafts may enable nanotech motors to rotate more than a million times faster than their biological counterparts.

Nanotechnology advance toward individualized cancer treatments

The effectiveness of treatment with multifunctional nanoparticles was studied using human breast tumors grown in rats lacking an immune system so that the variation in the effectiveness of treatment could be compared among individual breast tumors.

Uncertainty over safety of nanotechnology in consumer products

It is not clear that there is any real danger from the nanotech products currently in use, but neither is there convincing proof that all are safe.

Foresight — with Peripheral Vision: Nanotech & AI forecast from Josh Hall

Josh Hall, author of Nanofuture: What’s Next for Nanotechnology, sends this message to Nanodot readers: Dear Foresight members & friends, It’s the time of year when many of you are renewing your Foresight memberships, and helping us meet our $30,000 goal for our Challenge Grant by December 31: https://foresight.org/challenge I believe that the next decade… Continue reading Foresight — with Peripheral Vision: Nanotech & AI forecast from Josh Hall

A better raincoat through nanotechnology

A nanotech technique that can coat any number of common fabrics with a layer of silicone nanofilaments appears ready to produce durable, completely waterproof clothing.

Centralized approach of Russia's nanotechnology program

Michael Berger at Nanowerk has compared the centralized strategy of Russia’s new nanotechnology program with the national nanotech strategies of other countries.

Nanotechnology to benefit from high-temperature superconducting nanowires

Nanowires that are superconducting above liquid nitrogen temperature have been produced for the first time, and their properties vary according to the diameter of the nanowires.
