The study of nanoparticle interactions within colloidal suspensions has advanced considerably, laying the groundwork for both industrial applications and theoretical developments. At the heart of this ...

The behaviour of colloidal particles at fluid interfaces is of critical importance in both natural processes and industrial applications, ranging from emulsion stability to advanced material design.

An international team has developed spherical colloidal particles for the visualization of rotational dynamics. The two-color fluorescent particles have an off-center core that allows tracking of ...

Nanosized drug particles and colloids enhance drug permeability and bioavailability through the particle drifting effect, but outcomes vary by drug, colloid, and formulation. This study used biphasic ...

Force spectroscopy relies on the precise measurement of forces acting on a probe as it interacts with a sample. The key principles of force spectroscopy include: AFM-based force spectroscopy is the ...

In the race to uncover the deepest secrets of the universe, researchers are turning to powerful new tools. One of the most promising tools is the quantum computer. It offers a way to explore problems ...

We’ve created a new way to explore the fundamental constituents of the universe. [Editor’s note: The full, interactive map is available below.] All of nature springs from a handful of components — the ...

Occasionally referred to as ‘colloidal gold,’ gold colloid is a suspension comprising sub-micron gold nanoparticles suspended in a solvent - most commonly water. Gold nanoparticles' distinct ...
