Palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) were synthesised by using gum kondagogu (GK), a non-toxic ecofriendly biopolymer. GK acted as both reducing and stabilising agent for the synthesis of Pd NPs. Various reaction parameters, such as concentration of gum, Pd chloride and reaction pH were standardised for the stable synthes…

By taking advantage of the physical and chemical properties of the M13 bacteriophage, we have used this virus to synthesize mesoporous silica structures. Major coat protein p8 was chemically modified by attaching thiol groups. As we show, the resulting thiolated phage can be used as a biotemplate able to direct the fo…

To ensure reliable operations of power transformers, online condition monitoring needs to be performed. However, extensive noise can be coupled into measured signals and cause ambiguities in evaluating transformers’ conditions. This study proposes a hybrid method, which combines pre‐whitening and blind equalisation fo…
