Semiconducting polymer dot (Pdot) bioconjugates are a new class of ultrabright fluorescent probes. Here, we report a procedure for lyophilizing Pdot bioconjugates so that they successfully retain their optical properties, colloidal stability, and cell-targeting capability during storage. We found that, when Pdot bioco…

A major challenge with the use of quantum dots (QDs) for cellular imaging and biomolecular delivery is the attainment of QDs freely dispersed inside the cells. Conventional methods such as endocytosis, lipids based delivery and electroporation are associated with delivery of QDs in vesicles and/or as aggregates that a…

A metastable liquid crystal (LC) was found to serve as a time-responsive reaction medium, in which the enantioselectivity of a photoreaction was perfectly switched through isothermal annealing of the reaction system. When the LC salt of an enantiopure amine with a photoreactive acid was irradiated with UV/vis light, i…

To develop potent drugs for oral use, information on their pharmacokinetic (PK) properties after oral administration is of great importance. We have recently reported the utility of positron emission tomography (PET) for the analysis of gastrointestinal (GI) absorption of radiolabeled compounds. In this study, PET ima…

Hemp fibers-reinforced unsaturated polyester (UP) composites were prepared by hand lay-out compression molding. Hemp fibers were treated with isocyanatoethyl methacrylate (IEM), using dibutyltin dilaurate as a catalyst. The results indicated that fiber treatment significantly increased tensile strength, flexural stren…

Silicon carbide is a candidate cladding for fission power reactors that can potentially provide better accident tolerance than zirconium alloys. SiC has also been discussed as a host matrix for nuclear fuel. Chemical vapor–deposited silicon carbide specimens were exposed in 0.34–2.07 MPa steam at low gas velocity (~50…

Materials with the cubic ReO 3 -type structure are, in principle, excellent candidates for negative thermal expansion (NTE). However, many such materials, including TaO 2 F, do not display NTE. It is proposed that local distortions away from the ideal structure, associated with the need to accommodate the different bo…

Carbon fiber reinforced composites are used in a wide range of applications in aerospace, mechanical, and civil structures. Due to the nature of material, most damage in composites, such as delaminations, are always barely visible to the naked eye, which makes it difficult to detect and repair. The investigation of bi…
