Diagnosis of Skin Health Conditions Using Gold Nanoparticles

Panigrahi S., Murugesan K., Biswas S.C., ITC LTD, IN

This study reports a novel non-invasive technique for the detection of skin health conditions using gold nanoparticles (GNP). The feasibility of the use of these GNP in the diagnosis of skin health conditions was non-invasively [...]

Hydrothermal approach to a carbon graphite encapsulated FeCo nanocrystals for diagnosis, hyperthermia therapy and siRNA delivery

Park J.K., Jung J.J., Subramaniam P., Shah B., Kim C.J., Lee J-K, Lee K.B., Lee J-K, Lee K.B., Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology, KR

An effective therapeutic approach against cancer requires the combination of several modalities such as chemotherapy, radiation, and hyperthermia. However, the development of multifunctional nanomaterial-based systems that can provide the combined therapeutics and molecular imaging with [...]

New Multimodal Iron Oxide Nanoparticles as Nanotools for Cancer

Benyettou F., Chebbi I., Lalatonne Y., Sainte-Catherine O., Di Benedetto M., Lecouvey M., Seksek O., Motte L., Université Paris 13, FR

The goal of this project is to elaborate new multifunctional magnetic nanovectors to vectorize biological interest molecules for therapy and diagnostic applications. Indeed, iron oxide nanoparticles, tanks to their magnetic properties, are used as contrast [...]

Fault Detection and Diagnosis Techniques for Molecular Computing

Tahoori M.B., Mitra S., Northeastern University, US

Fault detection and diagnosis techniques that are essential for defect tolerance, fault tolerance and self-repair of molecular computing systems are discussed. These techniques enable robust molecular computing system design protected from manufacturing defects and run-time [...]

Microsensors, Arrays and Automatic Diagnosis of Sensor Faults

Gaura E., Newman R.M., Coventry University, UK

As man-made dynamical systems become increasingly complex, there is an ever-present need to ensure their safe and reliable operation [1]. These requirements extend beyond the normally accepted safety-critical systems (e.g. nuclear reactors, chemical plants, and [...]
