The fast scanning calorimetry (FSC) was employed to investigate glass transition phenomena in vapor deposited amorphous solid water (ASW) films doped with acetic acid, pentanol, and carbon tetrachloride. In all three cases, FSC thermograms of doped ASW films show well pronounced glass transitions at temperatures near…
Kinetics of potassium (K) release from sand, silt, and clay fractions of 10 calcareous soils of southern Iran were examined to evaluate the ability of different fractions to release K. Samples were successively extracted with 0.01 M CaCl2, HCl, and citric acid for 1496 h. Mineralogical analysis indicated that mica, ch…
Purpose: To employ response surface methodology (RSM) for statistical optimization of formulation factors in the preparation of celecoxib-loaded microspheres.Methods: Celecoxib microspheres were prepared by solvent evaporation method. Biodegradable/biocompatible polymers, Eudragit L-100 and polyvinyl pyrrolidone, were…
A physical hydrogel prepared with the low-molecular-weight hydrogelator (LMWHG) CH2(C3H6CO-L-Phe-D-Oxd-OH)2 and water/ethanol mixture was applied as a potential "Trojan Horse" carrier into cells. By SEM and XRD analysis we could demonstrate that a fibrous structure is present in the xerogel, making a complex network.…
Conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) were synthesized from the tetrasubstituted [2.2]paracyclophane skeleton as a tetra-functional building block using Hay coupling, Sonogashira–Hagihara cross-coupling, and Yamamoto coupling. The CMPs exhibited microporosity (less than 2 nm) and large surface areas (up to approximat…
The present study reports the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from silver precursor using banana stem extract (BSE) as a plant biomaterial. Biologically synthesized AgNPs were observed at 425 nm with particle size ranges from 75.50 nm to 1.22 μm of truncated octahedron, rhombdodecahedron, cubic, octahedron a…
Magnetic nanoclusters (MNCs) are agglomerated individual magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) that show great promise in increasing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sensitivity. Here, we report an effective strategy to engineer MNCs based on double-ligand modulation to enhance MRI sensitivity. The oleic acid-coated individua…
Nucleus remains a significant target for nanoparticles with diagnostic and therapeutic applications because both genetic information of the cell and transcription machinery reside there. Novel therapeutic strategies (for example, gene therapy), enabled by safe and efficient delivery of nanoparticles and drug molecules…
In a previous paper, we presented the results of type examination of the Fragilaria \npectinalis–capitellata species complex, species which have a unilateral central area and fine striae. \nHere, we present the results of type examination of the Fragilaria vaucheriae–intermedia species \ncomplex, species which have a…
ZnO/InGaN/GaN heterostructured light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy and atomic layer deposition. InGaN films consisted of an Mg-doped InGaN layer, an undoped InGaN layer, and a Si-doped InGaN layer. Current-voltage characteristic of the heterojunction indicated a diode-like rectificat…
In spite of a potential hydrogen storage material, ammonia borane (AB) was recently found to be a good hydrogenation reagent. It can reduce certain ketones to alcohols or borate esters, and imines to amines. The mechanisms of these reactions are not fully understood yet, and have been systematically studied using high…
The structure of bimetallic nanoparticles has a great impact on catalytic performance. By radiation-induced reduction of metal ions in the aqueous phase, supported bimetallic Pt–Cu catalysts were synthesized with various Cu loadings, support materials, and copper sources. These parameters had a great impact on the str…
By applying non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation, it is demonstrated that the thermal conductivity of the reported Si/Ge core-shell nanowires (NWs) can be further reduced by shell doping. The thermal conductivity of Si/Ge0.6Si0.4 core-shell NWs is only about 66% of that of Si/Ge core-shell NWs. By analyzing t…
Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectroscopy of metallic nanoparticles is a powerful tool for chemical and biological sensing experiments. In this study, we observed LSPR shifts of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid modified gold nanorods (GNR-MUA) for the pH range of 6.41 to 8.88. We proposed a mechanism involving…
Various techniques have been used for preparation of gelatin nanoparticles, such as coacervation, emulsion/solvent evaporation, reverse phase preparation, inverse miniemulsion and two step desolvation. Both methods are based on different mechanisms of nanoparticle formation. The main goal of this study was to systemat…
Porous carbon-titania and highly crystalline titania nanostructured materials were obtained through a microwave-assisted one-pot synthesis. Resorcinol and formaldehyde were used as carbon precursors, triblock copolymer Pluronic F127 as a stabilizing agent, and titanium isopropoxide as a titania precursor. This microwa…
We have employed first-principles calculations with PBE0 hybrid functional to study the magnetic origin of Fe-doped ZnO semiconductors. Density functional theory predicts antiferromagnetic ordering for Fe 2+ -substituted ZnO materials. Origins of magnetic ordering are attributed directly to the local ordering of Fe in…
A facile approach was developed to synthesize conjugated block copolymer (BCP) poly(ethylene oxide)-b-polyaniline (PEO-PANI). Aldehyde group-terminated PEO was prepared by an esterification reaction of p-formylbenzoic acid and PEO and then reacted with PANI from chemical oxidative polymerization. FT-IR, (1)H NMR, and…
