In a number of clinical conditions such as intoxication, bacteraemia or autoimmune diseases the removal of the disease-causing factor from blood would be the most direct cure. However, physicochemical characteristics of the target compounds limit the applicability of classical filtration

Introduction of effective point-of-care devices for use in medical diagnostics is part of strategies to combat accelerating health-care costs. Molecular motor driven nanodevices have unique potentials in this regard due to unprecedented level of miniaturization and independence of external pumps.
In the pursuit of robust and reusable biocatalysts for industrial synthetic chemistry, nanobiotechnology is currently taking a significant part. Recently, enzymes have been immobilized on different nanoscaffold supports. Carbon coated metallic nanoparticles were found to be a practically useful support
Graphene-coated cobalt nanoparticles surface-functionalized with benzylamine groups (CoC-NH(2) nanomagnets) were shown to effectively enrich analytes for surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (affinity SALDI-MS) analysis. These CoC-NH(2) nanomagnets are highly suited for use with affinity SALDI-MS because their mean diameter of
Non-magnetic Pt catalysts, supported on carbon coated magnetic Co nanoparticles, changed catalytic performance in the presence of an external magnetic field. This behavior relates to an electronic change of Pt induced by a localized magnetic field, which modifies the CO
