This study investigated 2 nm protein-stabilized gold nanoclusters in six mammalian cell types under 1 GHz electromagnetic field exposure. The authors report low intrinsic toxicity of the nanoclusters, but a significant decrease in cell viability when nanocluster-incubated cells were exposed to the 1 GHz field,…

This materials study examines how a high magnetic field affects crystallization during isothermal annealing of [(FeCo)BSi]Nb4 bulk metallic glass. The authors report that the field promotes α-(Fe,Co) precipitation and suppresses boride formation, yielding a nanocomposite microstructure with α-(Fe,Co) dispersed in an…

This in vitro study examines RF-induced heat production in citrate-capped gold nanoparticle suspensions while minimizing confounding Joule heating from ionic buffers. It reports size-dependent heating detectable only for ≤10 nm particles, with heating scaling with concentration and surface area and being attenuated…
