The IN-SIlico molecular DEsign Laboratory (INSIDEL@b) of CNR-IC has established a partnership with Chiesi Farmaceutici S.p.A. to co-found a Ph.D. fellowship under the program “Dottorato Industriale CNR XXXVI ciclo” for...
In this work, nanobiohybrids of plasmonic gold nanoparticles (AuNP, anti-angiogenic) and a peptide mimicking the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF, pro-angiogenic) were assembled and scrutinized in terms of physicochemical characterization,...
The structures of the disordered 1D (pseudo-)perovskites of general TMSO(Pb Bi )I formulation [TMSO = (CH)SO], obtained by doping the TMSOPbI species with Bi ions, are investigated through the formulation...
The development of a prototype apparatus to perform patterned Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) on planar substrates is presented. The system consists of a fixed head which produces and drives a...
In recent years, the application of nanotechnology for the development of new "smart fertilizers" is regarded as one of the most promising solutions for boosting a more sustainable and modern...
The need for qualitatively and quantitatively enhanced food production, necessary for feeding a progressively increasing World population, requires the adoption of new and sustainable agricultural protocols. Among them, limiting the...
We report on the synthesis and characterization of novel lead and bismuth hybrid (organic-inorganic) iodide and bromide pseudo-perovskites (ABX3) containing the trimethylsulfoxonium cation (CH3)3SO+ (TMSO) in the A site, Pb/Bi...
BACKGROUND: The use of nanomaterials for the efficient delivery of active species in viticulture is still an unexplored opportunity. Nitrogen, an essential nutrient for grapevine development and wine quality, is...
Atomic-and nanometer-scale features of nanomaterials have a strong influence on their chemical and physical properties and a detailed description of these elements is a crucial step in their characterization. Total...
Nanosized fertilizers are the new frontier of nanotechnology towards a sustainable agriculture. Here, an efficient N-nanofertilizer is obtained by post-synthetic modification (PSM) of nitrate-doped amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) nanoparticles (NPs)...
