FRET Ratiometric Nanoprobes for Nanoparticle Monitoring

Fluorescence labelling is often used for tracking nanoparticles, providing a convenient assay for monitoring nanoparticle drug delivery. However, it is difficult to be quantitative, as many factors affect the fluorescence intensity. Förster...

MiR-200c synergizes with trastuzumab-loaded gold nanoparticles to overcome resistance in ovarian cancer cells

Abstract Background Trastuzumab (TZ) resistance remains a significant challenge in the treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), necessitating novel therapeutic strategies to impr...

Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology is the study, production and controlled manipulation of materials with a grain size < 100 nm. At this level, the laws of classical mechanics fall away and those of quantum mechanics take over, resulting in unique behaviour of...

Nanotechnology and Agroecosystem

Nanotechnology is working with the smallest possible particles which raise hopes for improving agricultural productivity through encountering problems unsolved conventionally. Improvement of crops in agriculture is a continuous process. Bre...

Nanotechnology: an introduction

This book provides an overview of the rapidly growing and developing field of nanotechnology, focusing on key essentials, and structured around a robust anatomy of the subject. The newcomer to nanotechnology, who may well have a strong back...

Nanotechnology: convergence with modern biology and medicine

Cement and Concrete Nanoscience and Nanotechnology

Concrete science is a multidisciplinary area of research where nanotechnology potentially offers the opportunity to enhance the understanding of concrete behavior, to engineer its properties and to lower production and ecological cost of co...

Nanotechnology and its Applications in Medicine
