Nanopinion: Transformative innovations in water quality monitoring enabled by additive manufacturing and plasmonic nanoengineering
Read the latest Nanopinion by Dr. Sara Fateixa and Dr. S. Kumar, where they explore the potential of additive manufacturing (AM) combined with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) in water quality monitoring.
Nanomaterials and health
Are substances in nanoforms more dangerous than they are in their normal size? Some are and some are not. Just like any other chemical substance, nanomaterials have to be assessed separately.
Nanomaterials are not only used in consumer products, but also in new and innovative medical treatments. Research has shown that nanoparticles can be used to damage and even destroy cancer cells from within.
