We have reported that PEGylated liposomes lose their long-circulating properties when they are administered repeatedly at certain intervals to the same animal. This unexpected phenomenon is referred to as the accelerated blood clearance (ABC) phenomenon. We recently showed that the ABC phenomenon is triggered via the…

We investigate structural and electronic properties of B-C-N (boron-carbon-nitrogen) layers and nanotubes considering the positional disorder of the B, C, and N atoms, using a combination of first principles and simulated annealing calculations. During the annealing process, we find that the atoms segregate into isola…

Gold and silver nanoclusters have unique molecule-like electronic structure and a nonzero HOMO-LUMO gap. Recent advances in X-ray crystal structure determination have led to a new understanding of the geometric structure of gold nanoparticles, with significant implications for electronic structure. The superatom model…

We have observed that Au nanorods (NRs) have distinct effects on cell viability via killing cancer cells while posing negligible impact on normal cells and mesenchymal stem cells. Obvious differences in cellular uptake, intracellular trafficking, and susceptibility of lysosome to Au NRs by different types of cells res…

A method to derive homogeneous effective constitutive equations for periodically layered elastic media is proposed. The crucial and novel idea underlying the procedure is that the coefficients of the dynamic effective medium can be associated with the matrix logarithm of the propagator over a unit period. The effectiv…

NbN films were deposited on SS substrates by reactive DC magnetron sputtering at various N2 flow rates and substrate biasing. Effect of N2 flow rate and substrate biasing has been studied on deposition rate, surface hardness, crystal-structure and adhesion values. Process parameters were optimized for deposition of Nb…

The acoustic properties of anti-inflammatory egonol were investigated by using micro-Brillouin scattering spectroscopy, by use of a 6-pass tandem Fabry-Perot interferometer and an optical microscope specially modified for spectroscopic purposes. The measured Brillouin spectrum was composed of a central peak centered a…

In this paper, we attempt to improve the electrical characteristics of epoxy resin at high temperature (above <TEX>$80^{\circ}C$</TEX>) by adding magnesium oxide (MgO), which has high thermal conductivity. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the dispersion of specimens with added MgO reveals that they are evenly dis…

The composite materials were prepared by sawdust, cassava starch and natural rubber latex (NR). The mixtures of 15%w/v gelatinized cassava starch and 15%w/v PVOH were used as the binder of these composite materials. The concentrated rubber latex was added to the mixtures. They were mixed rigorously to the treated sawd…

Abstract We report here the synthesis of a light-harvesting molecule 1, in which 5,5′-diphenyl-2,2′-bithiophene units (energy donors) and a doubly strapped porphyrin (energy acceptor) are three-dimensionally connected through four alkyl chains to form a “universal joint”-like architecture. From the results of the opti…

Josephson current of spin-entangled electrons through the two branches of a SQUID-like structure with two quantum dots exhibits a magnetic-flux response different from the conventional Josephson current. Due to their interference, the period of maximum Josephson current changes from $h/2e$ to $h/e$, which can be used…
