Smart Surface Engineering in Microcarriers: Toward Applications in Cancer Therapy
A microcarrier with dual surface modification integrates two distinct pH‐sensitive nanoreservoirs, enabling precise, site‐specific drug delivery and potential extracellular matrix degradation. This dual functionalization strategy ensures the separation of therapeutic functions, effectively preventing cross‐process interference and aiming synergistic ...

Flexible Selenium Nanowires with Tuneable Electronic Bandgaps
Nanotubes serve as effective test tubes for selenium nanowires, as their diameter precisely controls the width of the nanowires and the Se─Se bonding, resulting in a variety of different structures. An electron beam can be used to modify the nanotubes, allowing real‐time observation of the nanowire extrusion process. Additionally, optically transparent

Engineering of an outer membrane protein FhuA with increased channel diameter [PDF]
Background Channel proteins like FhuA can be an alternative to artificial chemically synthesized nanopores. To reach such goals, channel proteins must be flexible enough to be modified in their geometry, i.e. length and diameter.
