A new colorimetric probe has been developed for the detection and estimation of Pd(II) at sub-nanomolar concentrations. The probe consisted of rhodamine (signaling unit), which was linked with a bis-picolyl moiety (binding site) through a phenyl ring. Pd(II) induced opening of the spirolactam ring of the probe with th…

Abstract An important challenge in asymmetric cascade reactions is solving the intrinsic incompatibility of two types of distinct organometallic complexes that participate in a one‐pot reaction. Herein, we develop an organoruthenium‐/organopalladium‐bifunctionalized periodic mesoporous organosilica and realize one‐pot…

The gravity-driven flow of a thin liquid film down a uniformly heated vertical fiber is considered. This is an unstable open flow that exhibits rich dynamics including the formation of droplets, or beads, driven by a Rayleigh-Plateau mechanism modified by the presence of gravity as well as the variation of surface ten…

The enzyme flavocytochrome c3 (fcc3), which catalyzes hydrogenation across a C═C double bond (fumarate to succinate), is used to carry out the fuel-forming reaction in an artificial photosynthesis system. When immobilized on dye-sensitized TiO2 nanoparticles, fcc3 catalyzes visible-light-driven succinate production in…

Death Receptor 5 (DR5) is a pro-apoptotic cell-surface receptor that is a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Despite the potency of DR5-targeting agents in preclinical models, the translation of these effects into the clinic remains disappointing. Herein, we report an alternative approach to exploiting DR5 tumor…

Ni(OH)2 nanoparticles are demonstrated to be cost-efficient alternatives to Pt co-catalysts for enhancing the visible-light photocatalytic H2 evolution activity of red phosphorous (P) when deposited onto its surface. Ni(OH)2-modified red P exhibits 1.12 times higher photocatalytic activity for H2 evolution than that o…

The produced mechanical work at tensile drawing is converted into heat almost completely and the polymer temperature rises. The temperature rise at adiabatic drawing for different polymers is 20-100°C. To determine the temperature of PET during neck propagation, micro-particles with pre-determined melt surface were du…

Angular resolved photoemission spectroscopy in combination with ab initio calculations show that trace amounts of carbon doping of the Bi_{2}Se_{3} surface allows the controlled shift of the Dirac point within the bulk band gap. In contrast to expectation, no Rashba-split two-dimensional electron gas states appear. Th…

The occurrence of active water transport (net transport against a free energy gradient) in photosynthetic organisms has been debated for several decades. Here, active water transport is considered in terms of its roles, where it is found, and the mechanisms by which it could occur. First there is a brief consideration…

Wavelet‐based de‐noising is used to separate partial discharge (PD) signals from the noises resulting from measurement circuits or the surrounding environment. PD de‐noising by using the wavelet shrinkage method is capable of separating the noise component to some extent, but the selection of the wavelet base has a re…
