Seniors and Depression: The difference between depression and dementia. Depression is a mood disorder; dementias like Alzheimerâs disease, can have similar symptoms but they are different illnesses and have different treatment plans.
From a synthesis standpoint, nanotechnologies can be classified as variations of bottom-up technologies, such as self-assembly, or top-down technologies, such as lithographic methods (Box 1). Many nanotechnologies combine aspects of both strategies.
These designer peptides have attracted interest in the field of nanotechnology for its potential for application in areas such as biomedical nanotechnology, cell culturing, molecular electronics, and more. Effectively they act as building blocks for a wide range of material and device applications.The essence of this technology is to replicate what nature does: to use molecular recognition processes to form ordered assemblies of building blocks that are capable of conducting biochemical activities.mino acids are monomer molecules that carries a carboxyl and an amine functional groups; a spectrum of other chemical groups are attached to different amino acids, such as thiols and alcohols. This facilitates the wide range of chemical interactions and therefore molecular recognitions that peptides are capable of.
