A sensitive and versatile surface plasmon resonance bioassay was proposed for the detection of DNA and Ramos cells by combining the target-triggered isothermal exponential amplification with the magnetic nanoparticle-based rolling circle amplification, producing remarkable amplification efficiency.

Reversible magneto-switchable quantum charging of a Au nanoparticle array associated with a Au electrode is observed in the presence of hydrophobic magnetic nanoparticles attracted to the functionalized electrode surface.

Specific targeting of cells to sites of tissue damage and delivery of high numbers of transplanted cells to lesion tissue in vivo are critical parameters for the success of cell-based therapies. Here, we report a promising in vitro model system for studying the homing of transplanted cells, which may eventually be applicable for targeted regeneration of damaged neurons in spinal cord injury. In...

Hyperthermia treatment, generated by magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) is promising since it is tumour-focused, minimally invasive and uniform. The most unique feature of magnetic nanoparticles is its reaction and modulation by a magnetic force basically responsible for enabling its potential as heating mediators for cancer therapy. In magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia, a tumour is preferentially ...
