Studies conducted by Northwestern researchers are showing us that Nanodiomonds can be used as a vehicle for gene delivery they do it by by functionalizing the nanodiamond surface with PEI800 and it is going to revolutionize the genetic medicine front, this new technology combines key properties in one approach, ie : enhanced delivery efficient along [...]
Thousands of people die from malignant brain tumors every year, and the tumors are resistant to conventional therapies. This nano-bio technology may eventually provide an alternative form of therapy that targets only cancer cells and does not affect normal living tissue. This new therapy depend on a two pronged approach. Titanium dioxide is a versatile [...]
Use of nanotechnology is killing ovarian cancer cells Gene therapy with the aid of nanotechnology can cure ovarian cancer, experiment conducted by US Researchers was able to deliver tiny synthetic particles carrying a payload of toxin worked as well as chemotherapy at killing ovarian cancer in mice without side effects. The highlights of the study [...]
One more feather on the cap of nanotechnology in curing cancer, with the help of a new method called trojan horse therapy. Australian Scientists Dr Jennifer MacDiarmid and Dr Himanshu Brahmbhatt, who formed EnGenelC Pty Ltd in 2001 discovered a very effective method which they call Trojan horse” therapy to combat cancer using bacterially derived [...]
Efforts of US scientists payed the way for the discovery of nano sensors that can detect traces of cancer causing chemical insdie human cells. Scientists can easily detect particular chemical from the variation of the light signals emitted by the sensor when it interacts with DNA inside a living cell, It can also be used [...]
