#nanoparticles

Golden eyes see again. A retinal prosthesis with the potential to restore #vision lost or degraded vision due to age-related macular degeneration using gold #nanoparticles, which allows activation of cells in the eye using an infrared laser. Hope it'll work.
Naturally, the visual of it is got me just as interested as the medical implication. Think of the visuals for a Sci-Fi story, ho #writers - the old person with their eye reflecting in gold.

here we go

na recenzi jsem čekala téměř třičtvrtě roku, ale konečně je to venku. a tímto považuji svoji disertaci za vytěženou

(jako bonus nějaké to “umčo”. objektifikace Ondřeje Lánského in the making)

Polymer-coated nanoparticles loaded with therapeutic drugs show significant promise for cancer treatment. These particles can be targeted directly to tumors, where they release their payload while avoiding many of the side effects of traditional chemotherapy.

#SJSU #MossLanding Marine Laboratories has conducted testing for heavy metals:

"...unusually high concentrations of heavy-metal #nanoparticles... at Elkhorn Slough... following the recent fire at the nearby #Vistra Power Plant's li-ion battery storage facility... within a radius of approximately 2 miles... measured a dramatic increase (hundreds to thousand-fold) of the three heavy metals Nickel, Manganese and Cobalt."

Gold is shiny because of electrons that oscillate when light falls on it. Tiny gold #nanoparticles make these oscillations respond strongly to certain colours. Thousands of these particles arranged in a large array react together to a very narrow colour range.

We place this array on a semiconductor to create a novel #laser. These lasers could one day be placed directly on semiconductor chips, promising applications from optical communication to LIDARs.

#Nanoparticles come in many different shapes, including rods, triangles, and stars but these are difficult to study. Sara Bals, of the University of Antwerp in Belgium, and colleagues have developed a technique to bring the hard-to-see molecules into clearer view. https://pubs.aip.org/physicstoday/online/43514?utm_source=Physics%20Today&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=14593247_NQ%20-%2022-26%20July&utm_content=TWIP&dm_i=1Y69,8OS7Z,DYSBZ6,102IWF,1
