A novel process is proposed to turn soft gelled emulsions containing saturated monoglyceride (MG), sunflower oil, and water into a fat material with the typical water content (20 g/100 g) and rheological...
The possible link between hIAPP accumulation and ?-cell death in diabetic patients has inspired numerous studies focusing on amyloid structures and aggregation pathways of this hormone. Recent studies have reported...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a multifactorial pathology that requires multifaceted agents able to address its peculiar nature. Increasing evidence has shown that aggregation of amyloid ? (A?) and oxidative stress...
We report and discuss our first efforts devoted to realizing an innovative and miniaturized nanotechnology-based biosensor capable of real-time detect and quantify the presence of harmful pathogens dispersed in potable...
The self-recognition and self-assembly of biomolecules are spontaneous processes that occur in Nature and allow the formation of ordered structures, at the nanoscale or even at the macroscale, under thermodynamic...
CuS nanocrystals (NCs) have been recently exploited in several fields, ranging from energy conversion to biomedical applications, due to their intriguing geometry and phase-dependent semiconductor and near-infrared plasmonic properties. Although...
The neurotrophins, i.e., Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), Neurotrophin 3 (NT3) and Neurotrophin 4 (NT4), are known to play a range of crucial functions in the developing...
We report and discuss the synthesis and characterization of a new generation of radiolabeled 99mTc keratin gold nanoparticles (Tc-Ker-AuNPs) to realize a new generation of biocompatible nanotherapeutics for the treatment...
