The antimicrobial effect of a novel flavonoid (7-O-butylnaringenin) on Helicobacter pylori 26695, 51, and SS1 strains and its inhibitory effect on the urease activity of the strains were evaluated and compared with those of several natural flavonoids. First, various flavonoids were screened for antimicrobial activitie…
Beryllium forms stable sandwich and inverse sandwich complexes with the cyclobutadiene molecule. Two types of multidecker complexes are designed. Multidecker inverse sandwiches are found to be thermally more stable than the corresponding sandwich complexes. The average distance between two consecutive metals and the t…
Variation of fragility (m) of specially homogenized Ge(x)Se(100-x) melts is established from complex specific heat measurements and shows that m(x) has a global minimum at an extremely low value (m = 14.8(0.5)) in the 21.5% < x < 23% range of Ge. Outside of that compositional range, m(x) then increases first rapidly a…
We report a simple, facile, surfactant-free chemical route to fabricate morphologically different Cu 2 O nanoparticles such as octahedron, truncated octahedron, hollow octahedron, cube, and sphere by varying the hydrolyzing agents, complexing agent, and reducing agents. Then the componential and morphological evolutio…
Phenomenal advances in nanotechnology and nanoscience have been accompanied by exciting progress in de novo design of nanomedicines. Nanoparticles with their large space of structural amenability and excellent mechanical and electrical properties have become ideal candidates for high efficacy nanomedicines in both dia…
The ability to tune the state of dispersion or aggregation of nanoparticles within polymer-based nanocomposites, through variations in the chemical and physical interactions with the polymer matrix, is desirable for the design of materials with switchable properties. In this study, we introduce a simple and effective…
We have fabricated and characterized suspended single-layer MoS2 devices to investigate the substrate effect on the electrical properties of MoS2. The MoS2 devices were fabricated on Si/SiO2 first by using e-beam lithography and were suspended by etching away half of the SiO2 layer with buffered oxide etchant and dryi…
A new approach to the determination of oxygen nonstoichiometry (δ) of MIEC oxides as a continuous function of pO2 at high temperatures was developed. The description of the model allowing one to distinguish the contribution of oxygen released from the samples to the partial pressure of oxygen at the outlet of the cont…
Additional electrons can drastically change the bonding trend of light elements. For example, N atoms in alkali metal azides form the linear N3(-) anions instead of N2 molecules with the introduction of additional electrons. The effect of the additional electrons on the polymerization of N under pressure is important…
Dyeing of textile fabrics is considered to be one of the most polluting industries today, and there is a need to develop green processes that can reduce this pollution. A promising technology that can potentially cleanup the dyeing of silk fibers that are widely used for textile applications would involve the generati…
(1−x)(Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3-xBa(Zr0.055Ti0.945)O3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.12) lead-free ceramics have been prepared and the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) is confirmed to be x = 0.06–0.09. The MPB composition x = 0.07 shows enhanced pyroelectric properties from room temperature (RT) to the depolarization temperature Td (87 °C), with…
Summary A combination of chitosan biopolymer, nanoclay and rosemary essential oil was prepared as a functional bionanocomposite (FBN). Its ability to improve the shelf life of refrigerated (4 ± 1 °C) silver carp fillets was studied. The fresh fillets were left untreated as a control or coated with chitosan, chitosan/c…
The object of this study was to investigate the physicochemical interactions between starch and cellulose ethers when they were blended to obtain biodegradable films. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results revealed the hydrogen bond formation between polymer chains and/or plasticizer molecules and hence good…
High thermoelectric performance p-type CeFe4Sb12 composite with rich nanostructures are rapidly prepared by a melt spinning coupled with spark plasma sintering technique. Melt spinning markedly refines the matrix grain size (200–500 nm). We also find evenly distributed FeSb2 nanodots (<50 nm) inside the skutterudite g…
Renewable polyurethane microcapsules containing isosorbide derivatives for self-repairing anticorrosion coatings were easily manufactured by interfacial polymerization of a dimer ester–diisocyanate (DE–TDI) prepolymer derived from waste vegetable oil and 1,4-butanediol (BD) as a chain extender using ultrasonication. T…
Gold nanoparticles supported on ceria{110} crystal planes were more reactive than on ceria{111} and {100} in the oxidative dehydrogenation of alcohols. Kinetic analysis and a Hammett plot suggest that hydride transfer is involved, and the cationic gold is catalytically active.
Tailoring the structure and properties of graphene fibers is an important step toward practical applications. Here, we report macroscopic, long graphene ribbons formed by combining electrostatic interaction and shear stress during the wet-spinning process. The graphene ribbons are flexible and can be woven into comple…
Surface functionalization of hydride-terminated silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs) with dodecene via thermal hydrosilylation has been reexamined. We observed the formation of dodecyl oligomers (n ≤ 4) during the reaction under an argon atmosphere at various predesigned temperatures (100-190 °C). In a comparative study, surf…
A study of transmittance and photoluminescence spectra on the growth of oxygen-rich ultra-thin ZnO films prepared by atomic layer deposition is reported. The structural transition from an amorphous to a polycrystalline state is observed upon increasing the thickness. The unusual behavior of the energy gap with thickne…
Multifaceted Cu2O with controlled crystal facet exposure was synthesized via a facile one-step method. It was found that photogenerated electrons prefer to accumulate on high index planes, while holes tend to migrate to {100} facets of a Cu2O polyhedron, leading to efficient charge separation and enhanced photocatalyt…
