We have developed new, synthetic vector formulations that display high efficiency of gene transfer to vascular cells and tissues. The formulations comprise cationic liposomes and cationic, receptor-targeting peptides that self assemble on mixing with plasmid DNA into receptor-targeted nanocomplexes (RTNs). One such RT…

Coincidence Doppler broadening of the positron annihilation technique has been employed to identify the defects in thermally annealed 'as-received' ZnO and thermally annealed ball-milled nanocrystalline ZnO. Results indicate that a significant amount of oxygen vacancy has been created in ZnO due to annealing at about…

Multivalent systems are well known for their enhanced ability to bind multivalent counterparts. This contribution addresses the question whether they can also behave as cooperative catalysts. Analyzing examples from our own laboratory we show that self-assembled systems obtained by covering gold nanoclusters with thio…

Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed to investigate the reaction behaviour of species that may affect the growth of ultrananocrystalline and nanocrystalline diamond films. We calculated the sticking coefficients of CH x ( x = 0–4), C 2 H x ( x = 0–6), C 3 H x ( x = 0–2) and C 4 H x ( x = 0–2) on diamond…

The marine bacterium Saccharophagus degradans was investigated for the synthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), using glucose as the sole source of carbon in a two-step batch culture. In the first step the microorganism grew under nutrient balanced conditions; in the second step the cells were cultivated under limit…

The clustering of nanoparticles (NPs) in solutions and polymer melts depends sensitively on the strength and directionality of the NP interactions involved, as well as the molecular geometry and interactions of the dispersing fluids. Since clustering can strongly influence the properties of polymer-NP materials, we ai…
