A correlation between physical and optical properties of the Ge20Se70− x In10Bi x (x = 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10) glassy system is presented. The density of the alloys increases with an increase of the Bi content, which accounts for the concurrent increase in refractive index. The molar volume (Vm ) has been calculated from t…

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (TNPs), once perceived as harmless, have been shown to induce cytotoxicity on various cell types under UV radiation. However, whether TNPs elicit cell death in the absence of UV has not been thoroughly studied. This study aims to investigate the TNPs-induced cell death mechanism i…

Eu 3+ -doped ZnO nanoneedles were fabricated by thermal evaporation. In order to include Eu in ZnO nanostructures, europium nitrate was used to produce starting droplets from which ZnO nanoneedles were grown. Photoluminescence spectra included a sharp blue peak corresponding to the ZnO band gap and a broad red band du…

In the silkmoth Bombyx mori, the germ cells first appear from the posterior ventral side of the egg (from within the mesodermal primordium) after blastoderm formation. This is in contrast to Drosophila, where germ cells appear at the posterior pole before cellular blastoderm formation. To date, germ plasm has not been…

Biopolymers such as chitosan, pectin, alginate, ı-carrageenan and gelatin, can be assembled to layered solids by direct intercalation via ion exchange in the case of smectites or a ‘co-organised assembly’ method in the case of layered double hydroxides (LDHs). Layered perovskites can be delaminated and combined with t…

During the past decades there has been minimal improvement in prevention and treatment of hypertrophic scarring. Reasons include the lack of a validated animal model, imprecise techniques to dissect scar into the histologic components, and limited methodology for measurement of gene expression. These problems have bee…
