A Japanese research team has, for the first time, captured real-time images of how supramolecular gels form using high-speed atomic force microscopy, revealing a previously unseen mechanism of ...

Self-assembly of complex molecules is essential for a wide array of biological structures, including proteins, cell membranes, or even entire viruses. Supramolecular chemistry is a field of study ...

Many fundamental processes of life, and their synthetic counterparts in nanotechnology, are based on the autonomous assembly ...

In a review published in National Science Open, the morphology and structure regulation of supramolecular assembly and the applications of the derived carbon-nitrogen-based functional materials in ...

Metal-ion-based self-assembly supramolecular theranostics exhibit excellent performance in biomedical applications owing to their potential superiorities for simultaneous precise diagnosis, targeted ...

A few electrons are all it takes to significantly boost the rate of supramolecular assembly of one molecule threading through another. The finding extends electron catalysis, which is used in ...
