A new way to observe the release of proteins encapsulated in nanoparticles

A study led by ICMAB has used an advanced high-resolution optical microscopy technique to observe, for the first time, the individual behaviour of nanoparticles over time. The results reveal that, within the same population, nanoparticles can release their therapeutic cargo in very different ways, a key aspect for the development of precision medicine.

Innovative clip-off chemistry enables fast and precise production of complex molecules

A team of researchers at ICN2, with the collaboration of ICMAB and other international institutions, has developed a novel strategy to obtain complex organic molecules, known as macrocycles, by precisely breaking down crystalline structures. This approach enables target molecules to be 'cut out' instead of being built up step by step using traditional synthesis. The study has been published in the prestigious journal Science.
