Safety issues related to nanoparticles are still not very well known however, workers/researchers who deals with MNPs must utilize safety measures at all times. Consumers on the other hand must be aware of the concerns associated with MNPs in the products that they purchase….
Because of their exceptional magnetic properties and good biocompatibility, these nanoparticles might be a promising new material in the biomedical and biotechnological field. https://nano-magazine.com/news/2020/3/25/a-genetic-nano-toolkit-for-the-generation-of-new-biomaterials?ss_source=sscampaigns&ss_campaign_id=5e7cd34ebfad206a4a91fddc&ss_email_id=5e7cd3ef65ce807f332c30d0&ss_campaign_name=Rapid+nano-gold+tests+can+ease+pressure+on+centralised+testing+for+COVID-19&ss_campaign_sent_date=2020-03-26T16%3A14%3A26Z
As many nations across the world are dealing with increasing numbers of coronavirus cases, the testing of suspected carriers is being intensified also. The mass expansion of testing means that nations…https://nano-magazine.com/news/2020/3/26/rapid-nano-gold-tests-can-ease-pressure-on-centralised-testing-for-covid-19?ss_source=sscampaigns&ss_campaign_id=5e7cd34ebfad206a4a91fddc&ss_email_id=5e7cd3ef65ce807f332c30d0&ss_campaign_name=Rapid+nano-gold+tests+can+ease+pressure+on+centralised+testing+for+COVID-19&ss_campaign_sent_date=2020-03-26T16%3A14%3A26Z
A KAIST research team announced that they have developed a nano-filter that maintains excellent filtering efficiency even after hand washing through the development of proprietary technology that aligns nanofibers with a diameter of 100~500 nm in orthogonal or unidirectional directions. https://nano-magazine.com/news/2020/3/18/reusable-nano-filtered-face-mask-could-relieve-covid-19-supply-issues?ss_source=sscampaigns&ss_campaign_id=5e73c0488882da6a17a9092e&ss_email_id=5e74713236d8ef7d57f8cbb6&ss_campaign_name=Rapid+coronavirus+test+promises+to+ease+strain+on+healthcare+systems&ss_campaign_sent_date=2020-03-20T07%3A33%3A44Z
Using easy to collect samples, the tests detect the IgM and IgG antibodies response to the coronavirus, to identify if patients have contracted COVID-19 within minutes of testing. The technology, which has already been used in China, will improve the detection rate of patients carrying COVID-19, allowing doctors to test suspected carriers as soon as […]
