German researchers design hybrid bio-synthetic nanoparticles to fight cancer They are only a few nanometers in size, but their impact is tremendous: The tiny particles drive cancer cells to their death in no time at all. At nano tech 2006 in Japan from Feb. 21-23 researchers from the German Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft will demonstrate in Hall 4… Continue reading German researchers design hybrid bio-synthetic nanoparticles to fight cancer

UCLA develops nanotechnology safety test
UCLA develops nanotechnology safety test UCLA scientists have developed a testing strategy to help manufacturers monitor and test the safety and health risks of engineered nanomaterials. Nanotechnology involves manipulating atoms to create molecules smaller than one one-thousandth the diameter of a human hair. “Nano” means one billionth of a meter and the field might exceed… Continue reading UCLA develops nanotechnology safety test
