Repetitive Motion Speeds Nanoparticle Uptake: 'Bucky Amino Acid' Penetrates Faster, Deeper When ...

... Newly published research by Rice University chemists and North Carolina State University toxicologists finds that repetitive movement can speed the uptake of nanoparticles through the skin. The research is based on in vitro experiments involving animal skin that was exposed to buckyball-containing amino acids. It appears in the January 10 issue of the American Chemical Society's journal Nano Letters. ...
