Solid-state NMR investigations of nacre reveal the presence of an amorphous surface layer around the aragonite platelets. This surface layer contains hydrogen carbonate groups, presumably at its outer surface and water molecules slightly hindered in their mobility in a proton ratio of 1 : 33, i.e. about 16 water molec…

Core–shell nanoparticles based on metallic ReO3 nanoparticles have been prepared for the first time. The nanoparticles with the metallic shell viz. ReO3@Au and ReO3@Ag were prepared by the reduction of metal salts over ReO3 nanoparticle seeds. ReO3@SiO2 and ReO3@TiO2 core–shell nanoparticles were prepared by the hydro…

We describe the selective measurement of extracellular glutamate concentration in rodent brain using ceramic-based platinum microelectrode arrays (MEAs) coated with electropolymerized, over-oxidized polypyrrole (OPP) as a permselective barrier to interference from dopamine and ascorbate. OPP-coated MEAs displayed simi…

Unusual gelation of a number of organic solvents by allyl cholate and other simple esters of cholic acid is reported. These gels were characterized by SEM, AFM, polarizing optical microscopy (POM), X-ray powder diffraction and other techniques. Electron micrographs of the xerogels revealed the presence of highly entan…

Nickel multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composite plating was studied using a sulfamate-based bath. The effects of additives, current density, and bath temperature on the microstructure of Ni-MWCNT composite films were examined. The content of MWCNTs and internal stress of the composite films were also investigated…
