Soft matter covers a wide range of materials based on linear or branched polymers, gels and
rubbers, amphiphilic (macro) molecules, colloids, and self-assembled structures. These …

Nanoparticle (NP)‐based vehicles are attractive for biomedical delivery and therapy, owing
to improved therapeutic efficiency and reduced adverse effects compared to free drugs …

Progress of thermal tumor therapies and their translation into clinical practice are limited by
insufficient nanoparticle concentration to release therapeutic heating at the tumor site after …

Stimuli-responsive self-assembly of nanoparticles is a versatile approach for the bottom-up
fabrication of adaptive and functional nanomaterials. For this purpose, anisotropic building …

Janus nanoparticles (NPs) with charged/hydrophobic compartments have garnered
attention for their potential antimicrobial activity. These NPs have been shown to disrupt lipid …

The rapid rise of antibiotic resistance has become a critical global health concern,
necessitating the development of alternative treatments, such as antibacterial nanoparticles …

Building upon our previous studies on interactions of amphiphilic Janus nanoparticles with
glass-supported lipid bilayers, we study here how these Janus nanoparticles perturb the …

The interaction between nanoparticles (NPs) and bacterial cell envelopes is crucial for
designing effective antibacterial materials against multi-drug-resistant pathogens. However …

Named after the two-faced Roman god, Janus particles are defined by their distinct dual
chemical compositions on a single particle. Research on micron-sized Janus particles has …

Amphiphilic Janus nanoparticles, which are hydrophilic on one-half of the particle surface
and hydrophobic on the other half, are ideal carrier candidates for drug delivery due to their …
