Objectives. This study aimed to optimize modification of cotton-polyester textiles of workwear in terms of air permeability (AP), bending stiffness (BS) and near-infrared (NIR) reflectance using nanometal-embedded polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) polymer by a spray method. Methods. This experimental study was carried out to modify cotton-polyester te...

Biological nanoparticles, such as bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs), are routinely characterized through transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In this study, we report a novel method to prepare OMVs for TEM imaging. To preserve vesicular shape and structure, we developed a dual fixation protocol involving osmium tetroxide incubation prior ...

Effective and safe pharmacotherapies for central nervous system (CNS) disorders remain a major obstacle to human health worldwide. Nanotechnology offers promise in addressing this challenge by enabling the transport of large molecules across the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and the delivery of multiple drugs. Numerous studies have demonstrated the eff...

Diabetic Retinopathy (DRP) is a disease consisting of all the structural and functional changes that develop in the retinal layer of the eye due to diabetes. DRP is the most important cause of blindness between the ages of 20–74 in the world, and the most successful standard treatment option in the treatment of DRP is intravitreal injections. To sy...

Objective. Aptamer-conjugated nanoparticles for diagnosis have recently gained increasing attention. Here, we performed a bibliometric analysis to provide an overview of this field over the past two decades. Methods. The terms ‘aptamer, nanoparticles and diagnosis’ were used to search for relevant original articles published in English from 2003 to...

Tissue scaffolds are known to benefit from incorporation of nanoscale bio-additives like cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), which can affect porosity as an important tunable design parameter for bio-based scaffolds. In this paper, we probe how freeze-casting of carboxylated cellulose nanocrystals and CNC derivatized with magnetite nanoparticles yields m...

Herein, we prepared the zinc oxide (ZnO) and silver doped zinc oxide (Ag-ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) using Berberis aristata plant extract as a reducing, capping and stabilizing agent. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern confirms the formation of pure hexagonal wurtzite structure for both the samples with P4mm space group. The crystallite size reduces...

In this work, we present a binary assembly model that can predict the co-assembly structure and spatial frequency spectra of monodispersed nanoparticles with two different particle sizes. The approach relies on an iterative algorithm based on geometric constraints, which can simulate the assembly patterns of particles with two distinct diameters, s...

mRNA antigens require powerful nanocarriers for efficient delivery, as well as immunomodulators for controlling their excessive immunogenicity. While lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) used in mRNA vaccines exhibited systemic toxicity, there is an urgent need for developing potential nanoparticles with strong immunoenhancing effects for mRNA antigens. Alth...
