Gene Therapy: Virus-like Delivery System Takes the Heat out of Melanoma
Targeted viral-based gene therapies come with their own risks. A new gene delivery system mimics viral therapies to infect cancer cells with vesicular stomatitis virus matrix protein, with a similar transfection efficiency as the virus itself.
Gel-Mediated Crystallization of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients
The controlled crystallization of active pharmaceutical ingredients in supramolecular metallogel media using tannic acid is reported.
A Dress Rehearsal: Prototype Smart Bandage for Wound Healing
Wearable electronic device can be inserted into convential wound dressings.
Assembly Required: A User-Friendly Approach to Paperfluidic Point-of-Care Devices
A team of researchers construct a library of pre-fabricated, reusable paperfluidic blocks for point-of-care diagnostic devices.
Lifting a Little Load with Light
A new take on light driven chemical reactions.
Get Your Sunglasses Out: UV-Radiation and Eye Health
A German team of scientists published an overview on all the most recent knowledge on the role of the ultraviolet radiation in eye health and its aging process.
Your Form is in Your DNA: Shape-Memory Hydrogels Based on Nucleic Acid Bridging
Trifold stimuli-responsive shape memory in hydrogels is realized by combining donor-acceptor interaction with G-quadruplexes and DNA base pairing.
Acoustic Selection: Non-Invasive Liquid Biopsies
A recent paper describes improvements to a system that isolates circulating tumor cells from healthy cells in the blood using acoustic waves.
