Virustatic nanoparticles paper published in ACS Central Science

Reproduced form “Potent Virustatic Polymer–Lipid Nanomimics Block Viral Entry and Inhibit Malaria Parasites In Vivo” CC BY-NC 4.0.

Our paper describing polymer-lipid nanomimics capable of inhibiting viral and parasitic infection is now published in ACS Central Science.

The synthetic polymer-lipid nanoparticles mimic functional components of host cell membranes, tricking viruses and parasites into binding to the particles instead of the host cells.

Congratulations to all on this international collaborative effort!
