Structures determine the efficacy and safety of nanomedicines and promote therapeutic innovation, scientists say
SNA is a globular DNA that can easily enter cells and bind to targets. SNAS, which is more effective than linear DNA of the same sequence, shows significant potential for gene regulation, gene editing, drug delivery, and vaccine development. SNA is an example of how structural design changes how treatment interacts with the body. Credit: Chad A. Milkin/Northwestern University Historically,…

Light-based microcapillary monitoring sparks innovation in manufacturing and biotechnology
Principles and applications of KERI technology, which uses light to determine microcapillary contacts with nanoscale resolution. Credit: Korea Institute of Electrical Technology Researchers have developed a breakthrough technique that uses light to visualize the tips of nanoscale glass microcapillaries, allowing precise and delicate contact with other objects. “Microcapillary” is a precision tool with a very small diameter (0.1mm to 0.000010mm…
