The global lipid nanoparticles (LNP) contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) market is poised for ...

Polymer nanoparticles may be the answer. With virtually unlimited options for chemical features, “you can design bespoke delivery vehicles easier than with a lipid-based system,” says Sean ...

The cell membranes were then isolated, broken into smaller pieces, and coated onto biodegradable polymer nanoparticles. These nanoparticles were subsequently mixed with SpyTag-linked proteins.

Iron oxide-incorporated conjugated polymer nanoparticles, also known as conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs), are highly fluorescent particles composed of a semiconductor light-emitting polymer ...
