NANOSCIENCES AND NANOTECHNOLOGIES FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Momento, 2018 Sustainable development considers as a central axis the set of external physical, chemical, and biological components with which the living beings interact and which, with respect to the human being, comprises the set of natural, social and cultural ...

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract On the centennial of higher education in Chemical Engineering in Mexico, it is pertinent to revisit the key stages that have contributed to its consolidation as a vital discipline for the nation's scientific and technological advancement. Although the initial mission of chemical engineering education was primarily oriented toward the training ...

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Toxicological assessment is essential in NP approval for health and medical applications. Although 2D cell culture has been widely used, 3D models, especially spheroids, provide better predictive value for toxicological risk assessments since they replicate complex cellular interactions more accurately.

Structural and Transport Properties of Thick and Thin Cr2AlC Films
physica status solidi (RRL) – Rapid Research Letters, EarlyView.This study compares structural and transport properties of Cr2AlC thin films (50 and 500 nm) systematically disordered by ion irradiation. Columnar grain growth is observed only in 500 nm films, while both films exhibit a weak fiber texture. Kondo scattering from displaced Cr atoms leads to a resistivity upturn, with distinct magnetoresistance in each ...

Chemically‐Linked Heterostructures of Palladium Nanosheets and 2H‐MoS2
Small, EarlyView.The photoresponse of MoS2 devices is extended to the near‐infrared region (up to 1700 nm) through chemical connection to Pd nanosheets (PdNS). A maleimide is used for covalent connection to MoS2, and a phenyl bromide moiety for linkage to the PdNS. In the absence of the chemical linker, van der Waals heterostructures show poorer enhancement of the ...

Multifunctionalized biocatalytic P22 nanoreactor for combinatory treatment of ER+ breast cancer
Journal of Nanobiotechnology, 2018 Background Tamoxifen is the standard endocrine therapy for breast cancers, which require metabolic activation by cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP). However, the lower and variable concentrations of CYP activity at the tumor remain major bottlenecks for the ...

Self‐Assembled Nanostructured Microgels with Reconfigurable Morphologies
Small, EarlyView.This work presents bent‐core amphiphiles that self‐assemble into fibrillar, tubular, and helical nanofiber‐like nanostructures, forming organogels that can be emulsified into water as nanostructured microgels. These droplets preserve internal architectures and, when combined with fluorocarbon oils, yield multicompartment emulsions with dynamically ...
