The geometry of mononuclear copper(II) superoxide complexes has been shown to determine their ground state where side-on bonding leads to a singlet ground state and end-on complexes have triplet ground states. In an apparent contrast to this trend, the recently synthesized (HIPT3tren)Cu(II)O2(•-) (1) was proposed to h…

A fluorene-bridged squaraine dimer (SD-FLU-SD) was designed with the purpose of combining various chromophores in one molecule and enhancing its two-photon absorption properties using intra- and interchromophore transitions. Linear and nonlinear absorption properties of SD-FLU-SD were investigated with the goals of un…

Summary Large surface areas covered with man‐made materials are subject to pedogenetic evolution. However, pedogenetic processes in the resulting Technosols are seldom fully assessed. This work was conducted to identify and characterize the processes occurring on deposits of industrial technogenic materials. A former…

Functional scaffolds that could mimic cells' natural growth state in vitro are crucial for meeting the requirements of complex biological systems. However, the compact macrostructure and poor cell survival macro-environment of biomaterials are still two major challenges limiting their practical applications in bone ti…

The excitation of the surface plasmon resonances on a graphene strip and a disk in free space is studied numerically as a 2D and 3D electromagnetic wave-scattering problem, respectively. The associated mathematical model is based on the Maxwell equations with resistive boundary conditions on the surface of a zero-thic…

OBJECTIVES: Collagen barrier membranes are used in guided bone regeneration/guided tissue regeneration because of their excellent bio- and cytocompatibility. However, they are considered to have limitations in clinical outcome because of rapid and unpredictable degradation profiles. The aim of this study was to invest…

Direct production of hydrogen from water and sunlight requires stable and abundantly available semiconductors with well positioned band edges relative to the water red-ox potentials. We have used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate 300 oxides and oxynitrides in the Ruddlesden–Popper phase of th…

Using calibrated FRET, we show that the simultaneous occupancy of both rings of GroEL by ATP and GroES occurs, leading to the rapid formation of symmetric GroEL:GroES2 "football" particles regardless of the presence or absence of substrate protein (SP). In the absence of SP, these symmetric particles revert to asymmet…

The complex kinetics of Pi and ADP release by the chaperonin GroEL/GroES is influenced by the presence of unfolded substrate protein (SP). Without SP, the kinetics of Pi release are described by four phases: a "lag," a "burst" of ATP hydrolysis by the nascent cis ring, a "delay" caused by ADP release from the nascent…

We study the variation of the dielectric response of ionic aqueous solutions as function of their ionic strength. The effect of salt on the dielectric constant appears through the coupling between ions and dipolar water molecules. On a mean-field level, we account for any internal charge distribution of particles. The…
