An interview on how advanced techniques can be used to enhance silk fibroin and chitosan for drug delivery applications.

Researchers in India have demonstrated a wet chemical process to recover silicon with high purity from end-of-life solar ...

Herein, we propose that the cracking resistance of the coating can be enhanced through the incorporation of hydrophobic silica nanoparticles. The hydrophobic silica nanoparticles were fabricated by ...

In this work, we demonstrated the use of esterified lignin nanoparticles (ELNPs) as carriers and controlled-release agents of hydrophobic compounds. Curcumin was selected as a hydrophobic model ...

Magnetic media degrades over time, requiring significant emissions, energy, and cost to safely store long-lived data. Project Silica is developing the world’s first storage technology designed and ...

The device comprises a hetero-core optical fiber probe inserted into a gold-coated silica capillary prefilled with refractive index (RI) matching oil. The cladding modes in the hetero-core optical ...

For perfect browning, searing, and sautéing, these are just the thing. Christa Glennie is a former restaurant professional who has logged nearly two decades as a writer and editor covering people ...

Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis ... The samples were dissolved in distilled water and placed on silica wafers (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), which were allowed to dry completely. Both the samples were then ...
