Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Cancer Biomarkers with NanotechnologyLei Zhang, Dan Lv, Weijun Su et al.Early detection of cancer biomarkers with high precision is critically important for cancer therapy. A variety of sensors based on different nanostructured materials have attracted intensive research interest due to their potential for highly sensitive and selective detection of cancer biomarkers. This review covers the use of a variety of nanostructured materials, including carbon nanotubes, silicon nanowires, gold nanoparticles and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,280 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTargeting Cellular Receptors as a Strategy for the Development of New Generation Mucosal VaccinesConstantine Bitsaktsis, Kari Wiedinger, Edmund Joseph GosselinMucosal pathogens are a primary source of infection that require the development of vaccines to induce a specific, protective and long lasting immune response. Despite an urgent need, development of effective mucosal immunization strategies has proven difficult. The literature was reviewed to elucidate cell specific targets that may be utilized to increase the immunogenicity of protective antigens through mucosal vaccination. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2013 · 7,026 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Bidispersed Model System and Binary System for FerrofluidsJian Li, Decai LiFerrofluids, dispersions of magnetic nanoparticles, are typical dipolar fluids whose behaviors can be modified using an external magnetic field. Such magnetically controlled effects result from interactions between the magnetic particles, which are enhanced by an applied magnetic field. Since the system of particles always possesses a size distribution, real ferrofluids represent a polydispersed system. A theoretical model of a bidispersed … …Physics International, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2013 · 6,997 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEast Kolkata Wetland: A Multifunctional Niche of International ImportanceI. Mukherjee, S. Ray Chaudhuri, D. Ghosh, A. R. ThakurProblem statement: In the megacity Kolkata, the need for space to accomodate the ever increasing population is increasing day by day. As a result the encoarchment of the large wetland on the eastern frindge of the city is increasing and so is the threat of its loosing the status of Ramsar Status. Approach: Proper documentation of the existing traditional practice … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2012 · 9,082 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCurrent and Future Nanotech Applications in the Oil IndustryCocuzza Matteo, Pirri Candido, Rocca Vera, Verga FrancescaProblem statement: Nanotech applications in the oil industry are not completely new: nanoparticles have been successfully used in drilling muds for the past 50 years. Only recently all the other key areas of the oil industry, such as exploration, primary and assisted production, monitoring, refining and distribution, are approaching nanotechnologies as the potential Philosopher's stone for facing critical issues related … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 13 Mar 2012 · 10,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGamma Irradiation Synthesis and Influence the Optical and Thermal Properties of Cadmium Sulfide (CdS)/Poly (Vinyl Pyrolidone) NanocompositesShawkat Salameh Gasaymeh, Shahidan Radiman, Lee Yook Heng, Elias SaionProblem statement: Gamma irradiation has been successfully used to prepare a spherical cadmium sulfide CdS/Poly Vinylpyrolidone (PVP) quantum dots nanoparticles with enhancement of their optical band gap energy and thermal properties at room temperature and under ambient pressure. Sodium thiosulfate was used as a sulfur source in an aqueous solution. The formation of lower band gap energy of CdS/PVP nanoparticles … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 8,459 accessesView PDFCite
