The synthesis of multifunctional magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) is a highly active area of
current research located at the interface between materials science, biotechnology and …

Nanotechnology has virtually exploded in the last few years with seemingly limitless
opportunity across all segments of our society. If gene and RNA therapy are to ever realize …

Herein, we report a core–shell pH-responsive drug-carrier based on chitosan-coated
mesoporous silica nanospheres. The efficient positively charged polymer (chitosan) coating …

The aim of this work is to present the magnetic properties of novel superparamagnetic
iNANOvative™| silica nanoparticle clusters. A TEM analysis showed that these nanoparticle …

We have designed, prepared, and tested a new set of multidentate catechol-and
polyethylene glycol (PEG)-derivatized oligomers, OligoPEG-Dopa, as ligands that exhibit …

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are vital elements of the mammalian immune system that function
by recognizing pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), bridging innate and …

Recently, the development of hybrid nanostructures consisting of various materials has
attracted considerable interest. The assembly of different nanomaterials with specific optical …

We have tested the ability of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-modified ligands to coordinate
and stabilize luminescent CdSe–ZnS core–shell quantum dot (QD) dispersions in …

This study focuses on the synthesis and characterization of different generations (G 0–G 7)
of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer-coated magnetic nanoparticles (DcMNPs). In this …

We have designed a set of multifunctional and multicoordinating polymer ligands that are
optimally suited for surface functionalizing iron oxide and potentially other magnetic …
