WASHINGTON, D.C., Jan. 14, 2022 — Researchers at the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology and the Changhai Hospital of Shanghai used label-free surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy to quantitatively assess donor kidney quality, reportedly for the first...
EU Project Combines Optics, Nanotechnology to Restore Vision
GENOA, Italy, Jan. 3, 2022 — HyVIS, an EU-funded initiative targeting degenerative eye disease, is scheduled to get underway. The four-year project aims to develop a way to restore sight in people with diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa,...
Photothermal Process Irradiates Nanoparticles to Control Cell Activity
ST. LOUIS, Aug. 2, 2021 — Using nanoparticles as photothermal nanotransducers, scientists at Washington University in St. Louis demonstrated reversible modulation of electrical activity in excitable nerve and heart muscle cells. The biocompatible, minimally invasive approach...
Injectable Biosensors Convert Brain Activities into Detectable Optical Signals
WASHINGTON, D.C., July 30, 2021 — Technology for monitoring neuronal activity noninvasively could allow scientists to study the brain without the need for surgery or implanted devices. The newly developed nanotechnology, called NeuroSWARM3 by its inventors at the University of...
Light-Responsive Hydrogels Safely Deliver Targeted Therapies
COLLEGE STATION, Texas, June 14, 2021 — A research team at Texas A&M University is using nanomaterials that absorb near-infrared (NIR) light to develop and manipulate light-responsive hydrogels. The NIR light to which the nanomaterials respond in the research enables therapeutic...
Light-Controlled Nanoparticles Support Noninvasive Nanomedicine
ST. PETERSBURG, Russia, May 13, 2021 — Scientists from ITMO University have developed a production method for bio-integrated optical nanomaterials based on Mie-resonant silicon nanoparticles. The nanoparticles used in the work are covered by biopolymer shells and can be controlled by...
Raman Spectroscopy Platform Delivers Insights on Intrinsically Disordered Proteins
HONG KONG, April 30, 2021 — Researchers from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) developed optical tweezers-coupled Raman spectroscopy that can directly probe the structural features of alpha-synuclein, an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) that is...
Photothermal Ablation of Endometriosis Possible Using Nanomedicine
PORTLAND, Ore., April 8, 2020 — Using photoresponsive nanoparticles loaded with dye, researchers at the Oregon State University College of Pharmacy and the Oregon National Primate Research Center have developed a way to identify and remove lesions associated with endometriosis, a...
Nanophotonics Firm Raises $18M in IPO
PARIS, Nov. 13, 2012 — Following an initial public offering that raised €14.2 million (about $18 million), a Paris-based nanophotonics company with roots in upstate New York will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange Euronext market.
Inner Space Explored with Outer Space Tools
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 14, 2010 — A breakthrough in imaging technology using a combination of light and sound will allow health care providers to see microscopic details inside the body. Access to this level of detail potentially eliminates the need for some invasive biopsies, but...
Nanobubbles ‘Jackhammer’ Cancer
HOUSTON, Texas, Feb. 5, 2010 – Using lasers and nanoparticles, scientists at Rice University discovered a new technique for singling out individual diseased cells and destroying them with tiny explosions. The scientists used lasers to make ‘nanobubbles’ by zapping gold...
