Developing a fundamental understanding of polymer nanocomposite photodegradation and CNT release characteristics

Lankone R.S., Wang J., Ranville J.F., Fairbrother D.H., John's Hopkins University, US

As the development, production, and use of polymer nanocomposites continues to rise, so too does the likelihood for exposure of their embedded nanoparticles to humans and the environment following nanoparticle release. The release of carbon [...]

Tracking Nanoparticles in Biological Fluids using Single Particle ICP-MS

Stephan C., Cirtiu C.M., PerkinElmer, CA

Single Particle-ICP-MS is a new operating mode in ICP-MS that is dedicated to the analysis of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) commonly used in Nanomedicine and drug delivery systems. Single Particle (SP-ICP-MS) allows the differentiation between ionic [...]

Characterization of Metal-Based Nanoparticles by Single Particle-ICP-MS in Various Matrices

Stephan C., Hinemaan A., PerkinElmer, CA

The use of nanoparticles in consumer products is showing a tremendous increase over time. The National Institute of Standards and Technologies reported that nanotechnology-based consumer products are currently entering the market at a rate of [...]
