Researchers use nanotechnology to enhance benefits of anthocyanins
Nanoparticles containing anthocyanins. Credit: João Paulo Fabi An article published in Food Research International found that nanoencapsulated anthocyanins pass through the digestive system without being broken down, are efficiently absorbed, and reach more organs and tissues than non-encapsulated anthocyanins. This article describes research that shows that this is achieved and the benefits to the organism increase. Anthocyanins are pigments found…

Research team explores the potential of MXenes in nanotechnology applications
Credit: Matter (2024). DOI: 10.1016/j.matt.2024.08.019 Materials scientists at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln are studying the physical properties of MXenes. MXenes are a rapidly growing family of two-dimensional materials with potential for many nanotechnology applications. The team’s research builds on nearly 20 years of research into graphene. Graphene is another family of 2D materials that has important applications in many fields,…
