3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme-A (HMG-CoA) reductases (HMGRs), which catalyze the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate, may have an important role in the synthesis of methyl farnesoate (MF). In this study, we obtained two HMGR cDNA sequences termed Sp-HMGR1 (membrane-bound form) and Sp-HMGR2 (soluble form), which…

EuTiO3 is investigated experimentally by temperature dependent conductivity and dielectric constant measurements. Both data sets evidence a crossover behavior in their temperature dependence around T * ~ 200 K indicating a change of the electrical and magnetic behavior of EuTiO3 as already observed by muon spin rotati…

Periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to estimate the adsorption energies of the reactant, product and intermediates for CO 2 reduction to methanol on stoichiometric and doped CeO 2 (110) surface. A planar structure of CO 2 was considered to adsorb on stoichiometric ceria surface with a…

Highly porous polyetherimide (PEI) microparticles achieved by a spraying/coagulation process are candidate absorber materials for apheresis applications. Hydrophobic PEI surfaces tend to be rapidly coated with proteins when in contact with blood. Therefore, a hydrophilic modification of such particles is required. In…

Lead-free piezoelectric materials attract more and more attention owing to the environmental toxicity of lead-containing materials. In this work, we review our first attempts of single crystal grown by the top-seeded solution growth method of BaTiO3 substituted with zirconium and calcium (BCTZ) and (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 sub…

Anomalous spectral shift of transmission peaks is observed in a Fabry-Pérot cavity filled with a chiral anisotropic medium. The effective refractive index value resides out of the interval between the ordinary and the extraordinary refractive indices. The spectral shift is explained by contribution of a geometric phas…

The effect of a Cr adhesion layer on the transfer characteristics of Cr/Au-contacted carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNFETs) based on individual single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) is presented in this paper. We show that a very thin Cr layer (≈0.4 nm) already has an impact on the carrier transport in Sch…
