The colorimetric based #MIT technology can detect the #SARS_CoV_2 within 20 minutes using nanoparticle-bound #antibodies against a specific viral protein.
The first step in the clinical development of #Moderna's #mRNA vaccine against #SARS_CoV_2 (mRNA-1273) is being conducted by #NIH under its own Investigational New Drug application.
#mRNA technology has been widely used in many #nanotechnology_patents focusing on the #coronavirus (SARS / MERS) treatment approaches.
The future of #therapeutics is potent biological drugs, many of which have #delivery challenges with respect to how much drug needs to be delivered to exactly where in the body, while minimizing #side_effects.
A vast majority of #nanotechnology_patents on #coronaviruses have focused on the #diagnostic methods based on #CRISPR technology.
Loading #antiviral agents on #graphene_oxide (GO) enhances its biocompatibility while reducing the cytotoxicity of both GO and the antiviral agents.
New #COVID_19 vaccine candidate has been developed using proprietary #recombinant_protein nanoparticle technology platform to generate antigens derived from the #coronavirus spike (S) protein.
Due to their two-dimensional structure, sharp edges, and negatively charged surfaces, #graphene_oxide nanosheets are capable of interacting with microorganisms such as #bacteria and #viruses.
Integrating a proprietary #nanorod technology into a #lateral_flow_test platform resulted in developing of a rapid screening test for the current #coronavirus, nCoV19.
#Nanofiber based #N95_respirators can block out at least 95 percent of the airborne particles larger than 2.5 microns, including droplets carrying #viruses and #bacteria.
Carbon #quantum_dots functionalized with boronic acid ligands can interfere with the function of #coronavirus S protein and significantly inhibit its entry into the host cells.
European Roadmap for #Graphene has highlighted the Development of #fuel_cells for transportation, 6G and beyond wireless networks, on-chip optical data and spin-logic-devices for 2030 and beyond.
According to the Annual Report 2018 of #GRAPHENE_FLAGSHIP, the achievements are 145 partners, 31 partnering projects, 46 launched products, 9 spin-off companies, 25 granted patents, and 80+ promising application areas analyzed.
#InnoMatLife - founded by the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment - is a joint research project investigating the #health and environmental risk of novel materials. The project considers the full material life cycle, from synthesis to disposal.
Leading technology candidates in the area of #coating in #NASA_roadmap 2035 are Biological Fouling Resistant Surfaces, Microbial Mitigation Surfaces, Anti-Icing Surfaces, and Tailored Thermal Emittance.
As part of a $218 million investment in the emerging field of #quantum_information science (QIS), the #DOE Office of Basic Energy Sciences announced seven awards totaling $30 million over three years to develop QIS infrastructure and research.
#MXenes are expected to be good candidates for a host of applications since they have already shown promising performance in #energy_conversion and #electrochemical_storage systems.
Main research areas of #Strategic_Plan of the #Egyptian_Nanotech_Center are graphene transparent electrode, computational modeling and simulation, thin-film silicon photovoltaics, and nano-biotechnology.
University of California, Tsinghua University, and King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals were universities with the most #nanotechnology_patents of 2018 at USPTO.
