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 and the environment: A European perspective

The potential positive and negative effects of nanotechnology on the environment are discussed. Advances in nanotechnology may be able to provide more sensitive detection systems for air and water quality monitoring, allowing the simultaneo...

NANOTECHNOLOGY

IN THIS C&EN EXCLUSIVE "POINT-COUNTERPOINT," TWO OF nanotechnolog's biggest advocates square off on a fundamental question that will dramatically affect the future development of this field. Are "molecular assemblers"—devices capable of pos...

Nanotechnology for parasitic plant control

The field of nanotechnology opens up novel potential applications for agriculture. Nanotechnology applications are already being explored and used in medicine and pharmacology, but interest for use in crop protection is just starting. The d...

Nanotechnology and the need for risk governance

The Nature of Nanotechnology

Abstract Chapter 2 defines the expressions “Nanoscience” and “Nanotechnology” on a strictly scientific base. Various examples are used to illustrate the development from a scientific discoveryviaan engineering step to a final technology. “M...

Nanotechnology for Plant Disease Management

Each year, 20%–40% of crops are lost due to plant pests and pathogens. Existing plant disease management relies predominantly on toxic pesticides that are potentially harmful to humans and the environment. Nanotechnology can offer advantage...

Introduction to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology

The maturation of nanotechnology has revealed it to be a unique and distinct discipline rather than a specialization within a larger field. Its textbook cannot afford to be a chemistry, physics, or engineering text focused on nano. It must ...

Investigation of Microstructure and Mechanical Behavior of Nanomodified Cement-Based Materials

Recent advances in nanotechnology have highlighted the transformative potential of carbon-based nanomaterials, such as carbon nanofibers, carbon nanotubes, and graphene, in cementitious systems. These materials have shown a remarkable abili...

Diagnostic innovations in Equine Parasitology: a Nanogold-ELISA for sensitive serodiagnosis of migratory strongylus vulgaris larvae infections

Abstract Strongylus vulgaris, a devastating parasitic nematode in equids, causes life-threatening verminous aneurysms that are challenging to diagnose early. This study pioneered integrating nanotechnology into an indirect enzyme-linked imm...

Improved production of titanate nanotubes by hydrothermal method for adsorption of organic dyes

Abstract Background Increasing the yield of nanomaterials using the same reactor size and fixing most of the reactants and conditions will greatly improve the production process by saving time, energy and efforts. Titanate nanotubes are mai...

Influence of Coating a TiO₂ Electrode with DN-F05 and DN-F05-Ag on the Photovoltaic Performance of DSSC Solar Cells

A DSSC’s performance depends on its working electrode. Since this working electrode functions as an electron carrier, it affects how well DSSC solar cells perform. This study focused on working electrodes that use the dye DN-F05 and the Ag ...

A review on nanofertilizers: Advancements, applications, and implications for agricultural sustainability

Nanofertilizers are a new approach to modern agriculture through specific and effective delivery of nutrients through nanoscale engineering. In comparison to conventional fertilizers, nanofertilizers offer higher nutrient use efficiency, pr...

Towards Low‐Voltage and High‐Capacity Conversion‐Based Oxide Anodes by Configuration Entropy Optimization

Abstract Transition metal oxide (TMO)‐based anodes attract much attention for lithium storage due to the merits of high theoretical capacity, facile synthesis, and easy scale‐up. Moreover, the increased working potential avoids the issue of...

Multilevel Pulse Position Modulation With Level Trimming for Electromagnetic Nanocommunications in the Terahertz Band

Nanomachines are submicrometer-scale devices led by nanotechnology that can perform simple sensing, local actuation, limited data processing, storage, and communication tasks in the terahertz (THz) band, that is, from $\mathrm {0.1~}$ - $...

Ultrasound-Sensitive Liposomes for Triggered Macromolecular Drug Delivery: Formulation and In Vitro Characterization

Mistletoe lectin-1 (ML1) is a nature-derived macromolecular cytotoxin that potently induces apoptosis in target cells. Non-specific cytotoxicity to normal cells is one of the major risks in its clinical application, and we therefore propose...
