Abstract This work describes the molecular structure of bombesin (BN) and its analogs on the basis of the absorption infrared and Raman results described below. In these analogues is replaced one ([D‐Phe 12 ]BN, [Tyr 4 ]BN, and [Lys 3 ]BN) or two ([Tyr 4 ,D‐Phe 12 ]BN, [D‐Phe 12 ,Leu 14 ]BN, and [Leu 13 ‐®‐Leu 14 ]BN)…

A cure for hydrophobia: Monodisperse semiconductor nanorods are synthesized using nitrates as precursors. The surface modification of these hydrophobic nanocrystals is accomplished through encapsulation with a carboxylic acid enriched polymer (see TEM images), which leads to hydrophilic, bioconjugatable nanospheres fo…

A simple semi-automated microseeding procedure for nanolitre crystallization experiments is described. Firstly, a microseed stock solution is made from microcrystals using a Teflon bead. A dilution series of this microseed stock is then prepared and dispensed as 100 nl droplets into 96-well crystallization plates, fac…

Protein polymers (long-chain proteins in which a specific amino acid sequence "monomer" is repeated through the molecule) are found widely in nature, and these materials exhibit a diverse array of physical properties. One class of self-assembling proteins is hydrophobic-polar (HP) protein polymers capable of self-asse…

We present a theoretical model to describe finite beams incident on reflective volume Bragg gratings. We also give experimental results that verify our model. From these results, we identify certain properties of reflective volume Bragg gratings, such as beam waist, incidence angle and beam profile, that have direct i…

We study slip boundary conditions for simple fluids at surfaces with nanoscale chemical heterogeneities. Using a perturbative approach, we examine the flow of a Newtonian fluid far from a surface described by a heterogeneous Navier slip boundary condition. In the far field, we obtain expressions for an effective slip…

This work reports a solution-based approach to grow high-density vertically aligned ZnO rod arrays with a multistage terrace structure (HDVAMT) on Au nanoparticle covered glass substrates. The solar cell performance of HDVAMT is 10 times better than that of the disordered ZnO due to the much higher short circuit curre…

Highly crystalline, uniform Fe nanoparticles were successfully synthesized and encapsulated in zirconia shell using sol-gel process. Two different approaches have been employed for the coating of Fe nanoparticle with zirconia. The thickness of zirconia shell can be readily controlled by altering molar ratio of Fe nano…

Tuberculosis is a major cause of death worldwide. Understanding of the pathogenicity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been advanced by gene analysis and has led to the identification of genes that are important for intracellular survival in macrophages. One of these genes encodes HsaD, a meta-cleavage product (MCP) h…

We describe a theoretical approach for determining the permeability tensor of polycrystalline ferrites regardless of their magnetization state. To take into account both the demagnetizing dynamic fields related to the magnetic domain and grain shapes and the magnetic interactions between adjoining domains and between…

Antioxidant active packaging consisting of coextruded films made of low density polyethylene (LDPE) added with 0, 8, and 14 mg/g of butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and polyamide 6/66 were fabricated. The release of BHT from the films to Asadero cheese was determined. Most of the BHT was diffused from the LDPE layer to…
