Taking medications on time, in the right dose and for the prescribed duration can be challenging for patients, and failure to do so comes with steep costs, causing 10% of hospitalizations and billions ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) From augmented reality visors to holographic projectors, visions of advanced photonics applications rely on the ability to actively control light’s behavior. But practical schemes ...

Novel nanocomposites remove and recover nutrients from wastewater, subsequently upcycling them as agricultural fertilizers or as biorefinery feedstocks, while simultaneously mitigating the occurrence ...

A study published in Nature Nanotechnology introduces an innovative approach to mitigating alcohol intoxication using a single-site iron-anchored amyloid hydrogel (FeSA@AH). This nanozyme-based ...

The hydrogel changes shape when exposed to chemical stimulation, allowing researchers to orient the cellulose nanoparticles at will and, therefore, ‘program’ the robot’s shape-changing, an important ...

A recent study in Nature Communications introduces a hydrogel (OSPPB) designed to mitigate osteoarthritis (OA) by scavenging extracellular RNA and releasing bevacizumab to inhibit neurovascularization ...

An adhesive hydrogel whose stickiness can be turned off by shining infrared light on it could make for better bandages or allow robots to climb walls, according to the researchers who developed it ...

An unusual way to deliver drugs gives new meaning to the term “Jell-O shot.” Injected into rats, a water-based gel mixed with the key ingredients in Ozempic or Mounjaro offered long-lasting diabetes ...

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could stave off the miserable effects from a night out drinking by simply popping a pill? Researchers are now one step closer to that reality, developing a gel that helped ...
