(2017-12-07), Scientists capture colliding organic nanoparticles on video for first time, Blood Weekly, 264, ISSN: 1532-4559, BUTTER® ID: 014778893
By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Blood Weekly -- EVANSTON, Ill. --- A Northwestern University research team is the first to capture on video organic nanoparticles colliding and fusing together. This unprecedented view of “chemistry in motion” will aid Northwestern nanoscientists developing new drug delivery methods as well as demonstrate to researchers around the globe how an emerging imaging technique opens a new window on a very tiny world.
This is a rare example of particles in motion. The dynamics are reminiscent of two bubbles coming together and merging into one: first they join and have a membrane between them, but then they fuse and become one larger bubble.
“I had an image in my mind, but the first time I saw these fusing nanoparticles …
