Testing of Nanoparticle Release from a Composite Containing Nanomaterial Using a Chamber System
Gun Ho Lee 1, Kang-Ho Ahn 1, Il Je Yu 2
1Department of Mechanical Engineering, Hanyang University, 2Institute of Nanoproduct Safety Research, Hoseo University

Nanoparticle release is tested using a chamber system that includes a condensation particle counter, an optical particle counter and sampling ports to collect filter samples for microscopy analysis. The proposed chamber system can be effectively used for nanomaterial release testing with a repeatable and consistent data range.

1Department of Industrial Engineering, Hanyang University, 2Imagine Lab, Hanyang University, 3Department of Arts & Technology, Hanyang University, 4Department of Neurology, College of Medicine, Hanyang University

We designed a virtual reality test to assess instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) with a motion capture system. We propose a detailed kinematic analysis to interpret the participant's various movements, including trajectory, moving distance, and time to completion to evaluate IADL capabilities.

Metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma is a disease without a comprehensive animal model for thorough preclinical investigation. This protocol illustrates two novel animal models for the disease: the orthotopically implanted mouse model and the chicken chorioallantoic membrane model, both of which demonstrate lung metastasis resembling clinical cases.

The protocol described here aims to measure the hydrodynamic diameter of spherical nanoparticles, more specifically gold nanoparticles, in aqueous media by means of Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA). The latter involves tracking the movement of particles due to Brownian motion and implementing the Stokes-Einstein equation to obtain the hydrodynamic diameter.
