Light-controlled gate: A novel capped silica nanoscopic mesoporous hybrid material for photo-driven cargo release applications has been designed and prepared. The capped system, which shows a zero release, contains a ...

[EN] Functionalized nanomaterials have applications yet to be discovered, especially in the biological field and, in particular, the in vivo production of antibodies. In this paper, we show that aluminum oxide nanoparticles ...

An aptamer-capped mesoporous material for the selective and sensitive detection of &-thrombin in human plasma and serum has been prepared and characterised.

[EN] The upconversion emissions of yttrium orthoaluminate nano-perovskite co-doped with Er3+/Yb3+ have been studied. Strong green and red upconversion emissions, which can be observed by naked eyes, were observed when ...

[EN] The mononuclear phagocytic system is a key participant determining the half-life of nanoparticles (NPs) in the bloodstream and influencing active targeting. Several strategies to extend the circulation time of ...

[EN] Excessive apoptotic cell death is at the origin of several pathologies, such as degenerative disorders, stroke or ischemia-reperfusion damage. In this context, strategies to improve inhibition of apoptosis and other ...

As starting materials two commercial nanosized zirconias doped with 3 mol% of Y 2O 3 were used: a powder of about 100 nm (TZ3YE, Tosoh, Japan) and a colloidal suspension of about 15 nm (Mel Chemicals, UK). Colloidal stability ...

[ES] Esta tesina, tras una introducción al campo de la plasmónica, describe los esfuerzos de investigación realizados por la autora para idear una nueva estructura en el infrarrojo ideada para alcanzar un proceso avanzado ...

[EN] A novel nanodevice consisting of mesoporous nanoparticles loaded with vancomycin and capped with epsilon-poly-L-lysine (epsilon-PL) was prepared and its interaction with different Gram-negative bacteria studied. A ...
