2D Engineering of Protein-Based Nanoparticles for cell guidance

Tatkiewicz W.I., Seras-Franzoso J., García-Fruitós E., Vazquez E., Ventosa N., Ratera I., Villaverde A., Veciana J., Institut Ciencia Materials de Barcelona (CSIC)/CIBER-BBN, ES

Cells responses, like positioning, morphological changes, proliferation and apoptosis, are the result of complex chemical, topographical and biological stimuli. Here we show the macroscopic responses of cells when nanoscale profiles made with Inclusion Bodies (IBs) [...]

Quatsomes: vesicles formed by self-assembly of sterols and

Ferrer-Tasies L., Moreno-Calvo E., Cano-Sarabia M., Aguilella-Arzo M., Angelova A., Lesieur S., Ricart S., Faraudo J., Ventosa N., Veciana J., CSIC, ES

Thermodynamically stable nanovesicular structures are of high interest for academia and industry in a wide variety of application fields, ranging from nanomaterials preparation to nanomedicine. Here we show the ability of quaternary ammonium surfactants and [...]

Flexible thin films based on nanostructured polymeric composites as ultra sensitive piezoresistive materials and their applications

Laukhina E., Pfattner R., Ferreras L.R., Mas-Torrent M., Laukhin V., Laukhina E., Rovira C., Veciana J., Institut Ciencia de Materials de Barcelona (CSIC)/CIBER-BBN, ES

The development of intelligent materials that respond to the application of external stimuli is of major interest for the fabrication of artificial sensing devices able to sense and transmit information about the external changes produced [...]
