Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, have used three-dimensional atomic force microscopy (AFM) and molecular dynamics simulations to determine the ...
Chitin hydrogel is recognized as a promising material for a variety of biomedical applications. Its biocompatibility and biodegradability make it useful in tissue repair, artificial organs, and wound ...
An unexpected discovery overturns a longstanding belief in the biological sciences. The research demonstrates that chitin, a molecule that was previously thought to be absent in vertebrates and that ...
Writers know the power of the pen, but scientists are just discovering its secrets. The pen that is of interest to Assistant Professor Mark Messerli of the South Dakota State University Department of ...
From molecular interactions to material function: Unraveling water’s effect on chitin nanocrystals
Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, report in the Journal of the American Chemical Society the use of three-dimensional atomic force microscopy (AFM) and ...
New microscopy and simulations show how water interacts with two forms of chitin, revealing why one is more reactive and a better fit for future bio-based technologies. (Nanowerk News) Researchers at ...
Scientists have developed a green way to create chitin, by using two forms of food waste - prawn shells and discarded fruit - and fermenting them. Scientists at Nanyang Technological University, ...
Nematodes populate virtually the entire surface of the Earth, from marine trenches to deserts and high mountains. A mere square meter of soil can harbor more than a million of the tiny organisms which ...
