We demonstrate the aptitude of supramolecular hydrogel formation using simple bile acid such as lithocholic acid in aqueous solution in the presence of various dimeric or oligomeric amines. By variation of the choice of the amines in such mixtures the gelation properties could be modulated. However, the replacement of…

Although silk sericin (SS) enhances the growth and attachment of fibroblast cells, its toxicity remains questionable. We investigated the effect of SS extracted by heat with variable amino-acid content on in vitro collagen promotion and nitric oxide synthesis. After 24 h of incubation, SS, especially from the Chul 1/1…

3D hollow VO2(B) micro-spheres have been fabricated by using the hydrothermal method. The obtained VO2(B) hollow spheres were built up from well-defined VO2(B) nanothorn single-crystals, of which were perpendicularly parked on the sphere surface. When this hollow spheres was used as the cathode material for a lithium-…

Here we present a systematic study on the morphological deviation of ZnO nanostructure (from sheets to micro-flowers) by varying pH of the solution via precipitation method. In this regard, zinc nitrate hexa-hydrate, NaOH and hydroxylamine hydrochloride (NH2OH·HCl) were used. The solution of all three compounds was re…

We report the synthesis of a series of hydrophilic butadiyne-linked conjugated zinc porphyrin dimers, designed as photodynamic therapy (PDT) agents. These porphyrin dimers exhibit exceptionally high two-photon absorption cross sections (delta(max) approximately 8,000-17,000 GM) and red-shifted linear absorption spectr…
