Will intelligent implants through chitosan based proton transistor soon be possible?
So far, there has always been a ‚language barrier’ between humans and machines. To send information and commands within the circuitry machines and gadgets use electrons. In contrast, living systems use protons and ions to send signals within their bodies or to activate actions such as muscle movement respectively.

Nanoparticles: Trojan Horse for APIs
The big challenge in the field of medical innovations is so tiny that it is not noticeable with the naked eye. Nanotechnology – a promising and trendsetting technology. For example, with the help of drug-delivery-systems drugs can be transported to an exactly defined part within the body.
Chitosan also produces nanoparticles.
