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.
Integrating a proprietary #nanorod technology into a #lateral_flow_test platform resulted in developing of a rapid screening test for the current #coronavirus, nCoV19.
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.
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.
The University of Alberta's nanoFAB facility will receive an investment of $1 million from the government to help purchase three equipment tool sets (new #high_volume_deposition_tool, #contact_aligners, and #etching_tools) essential to the multistep process of manufacturing many #nanotechnology_products.
#Crystalline_cellulose is the most abundant #birefringent #biocrystal in nature shows birefringent properties that can be used in printing #invisible_designs and #anti_fraud applications.
Various manufacturers have commercially been producing #cadmium free #quantum_dots products because cadmium quantum dots may be banned in the near future in many countries.
By functionalizing of #cellulose nanomaterials, new opportunities for products such as #pharmaceuticals, #chemical_sensors, #self_sterilizing surfaces, and electronic wood based devices may be achieved.
Decreasing the production cost of #graphene_oxide up to 22 € per kg will make it applicable for areas such as #concrete and #asphalt bitumen.
Asia Pacific is considered a key region for the development of the #borophene #market till 2025, due to the demand from the #semiconductor and #chemical industries.
Brazilian nanotechnology companies majorly use liposomal #hyaluronic_acid, #argan, #clove_oil, and #vitamin_C to produce cosmetics.
#Silver, #titanium_dioxide, #silicon_dioxide, #tungsten_disulfide and #clay are commonly employed to commercial nanotechnology products available on global markets.
Currently, USA is considered as the largest #market for #carbon_nanotubes followed by East Asian countries. These two regions hold around 75% of the global market.
Using #carbon_nanotubes in manufacturing of long #wind_turbine improves strength of the turbine without increasing its weight, thereby improving the potential of #power_generation.
#Composite, #sensors, #batteries, #medicine and #automotive were 2018's top 5 #graphene applications, respectively.
#Carbon_nanomaterials such as #nanofibers, #nanotubes and #graphite are the most commonly used nanomaterials in #nanotech_products in #sports and #fitness.
#The_United_States has published approximately one #nano_patent in #USPTO and #EPO for every two #nano_articles, while that of #China has been one for every 43.
