Thermal Runaway-Induced Rupture Mechanisms of Lithium Ion Batteries
Batteries from a variety of manufacturers are examined using high-speed X-ray imaging to determine their failure mechanisms during thermal runaway.
Breaking free from vascular confinement: status and prospects for submicron ultrasound contrast agents
In contrast to healthy tissue, tumors demand a high supply of nutrients and oxygen, and will invade existing vessels and develop new ones to meet these demands.
Magnetic-Field-Modulated Tuning of Light-Emitting Properties
Researchers from Hong Kong Polytechnic University and the Hong Kong Polytechnic University Shenzhen Research Institute achieve remote and temporal tuning of luminescence intensity and wavelength in green- and blue-emissive piezophosphors by modulating the magnetic field. This novel method is promising for applications in magnetic optical sensing, piezophotonics, energy harvesting, nondestructive environmental surveillance, novel light sources, and displays.
Atomic Force Microscopy Captures the Liquid/Liquid Interface
Stabilizing interfacial layers enable atomic force microscopy imaging of soft and dynamic liquid/liquid interfaces without any solid support.
Polymer Microcups for Neural Devices and Drug Delivery
University of Houston and Pennsylvania State University researchers fabricate conducting polymer microcups from polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) for neural applications and drug delivery. These microcups are tunable in terms of size, surface roughness, electrical properties, and drug release.
Magnetosomes: Natural Magnetic Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications
A new in vivo strategy for displaying foreign polypeptides on magnetosomes is presented.
Ancient and Modern Hints: Chemotherapy Resistance in Ovarian Cancer
RNA-binding proteins influence epithelial ovarian cancer progression through complex networks with mRNAs, non-coding RNAs and other proteins.
RNA Nanotechnology and Biomedical Applications: RNA Versatility, Flexibility and Thermostability
Recent advances in fabricating RNA nanostructures are highlighted, including their applications in vivo as imaging or therapeutic devices via specific delivery and targeting, or intracellular expression and assembly.
Molecular Therapeutics for Drug-Free Cancer Treatment
Drug-free macromolecular therapeutic systems can target and kill cancer cells without causing the side-effects of the drugs currently in clinical use.
