TL;DR: It is hypothesized that this technique leads to the formation of alloy particles through the agglomerations of nanoparticles, very fast heating, and fast cooling/solidification, yielding even new metastable solids that fail to be stable in the bulk systems, and therefore do not exist in Nature.

TL;DR: The results show that the nucleation and growth of hydroxyapatite needle-like crystals with hexagonal symmetry occurred only on titanium substrates both chemically and thermally treated, demonstrating that only a particular titanium surface treatment can effectively induce the apatite nucleation under hydrothermal conditions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the methodology of device calibration and Young's moduli determination, to evaluate the elastic properties of living cells in their culture conditions, and two similar lines of normal cells (Hu609) and cancerous ones (T24) were measured.

TL;DR: SPIONs and SPION@mSiO2 were tested in vitro in contact with human lung epithelial cells and both nanoparticle types were cytocompatible, although some delay in proliferation was observed for BEAS-2B cells as compared to A549 cells, which was correlated with increased cell velocity and nanoparticles uptake.

TL;DR: A facile hydrothermal process in the presence of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid and monoethanolamine is reported on to obtain various forms of calcium phosphates, able to selectively synthesize monetite plate-like microcrystals as well as hydroxyapatite plates and nanofibers by simply varying the concentration of monoeth ethanolamine.
