We report a study of the ground state and metastable states of uranium dioxide using ab initio $\text{DFT}+\text{U}$ calculations. We highlight that in order to avoid metastable states and systematically reach the ground state of uranium dioxide with $\text{DFT}+\text{U}$, the monitoring of occupation matrices is cruc…

We report the effect of pH on the self-assembly process of Fmoc-diphenylalanine (Fmoc-FF) into fibrils consisting of antiparallel beta-sheets, and show that it results in two apparent pKa shifts of approximately 6.4 and approximately 2.2 pH units above the theoretical pKa (3.5). Using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR)…

Preparation of photo-responsive carbosilane dendrimers bearing 4-phenylazo-benzonitrile units on their molecular surface has been accomplished, and their both photo and thermal behaviors have also been characterized. These functional dendrimers suggest that the apparent molecular sizes of the cis-isomers are smaller t…

The role of the proteoglycans in the pathogenesis of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) is unclear. We assessed expression of decorin, versican, and transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1) in skin specimens of 10 patients with biopsy-proven NSF and different control groups. Real-time reverse transcription-polyme…

Abstract The renaturation of lysozyme assisted by a novel type of hairy particles was investigated. The particles used consisted of polystyrene (PS) cores onto which long chains of thermosensitive poly( N ‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) were grafted as shell. Here, two kinds of particles were synthesized as sub‐micron…

Among other uses, latexes are a successful alternative to solvent-borne binders for coatings. Efforts are made to produce hybrid nanostructured latexes containing an acrylic phase and an alkyd phase. However, after the film-forming process, the surfactant used to stabilize these latexes remains in the film, and its lo…

Rh(ttp)Cl ( 1a ) (ttp = 5,10,15,20-tetrakistolylporphyrinato dianion) was found to react with methanol at a high temperature of 150 °C in the presence of inorganic bases to give a high yield of Rh(ttp)CH 3 ( 2a ), up to 87%. Rh(ttp)H ( 1d ) is suggested to be the key intermediate for the carbon−oxygen bond cleavage.
