  4. 2. Supported Lipid Membranes and Their Use for the Characterization of Biological Nanoparticles

    Author : Silver Jõemetsa; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fluorescence microscopy; supported lipid bilayer; lipophilic dyes; size determination; diffusion; microfluidics;

    Abstract : Biological nanoparticles (BNPs) are nano-sized lipid vesicles of biological origin, which are involved in multiple biological processes. BNP characterization techniques are critical for improving the understanding of how these particles contribute to cellular communication, viral infections and drug-delivery applications. READ MORE

  5. 3. Toxicity and biological impact of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles : Focus on the vascular toxicity of ultra-small titanium dioxide nanoparticles

    Author : Narges Bayat; Susana Cristobal; Janeck James Scott-Fordsmand; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nanoparticles; Nanotoxicology; Ultra-small nanoparticles; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : The application of nanoparticles (NPs) in different technologies has led to tremendous advancement in those fields.  Moreover, there is growing interest in application of ultra-small NPs (USNPs) at 1-3 nm due to their distinct molecule like features. Parallel to these promises, there is a growing concern regarding their safety. READ MORE
