Natural fur with a high density of soft hair fibers was selected as a model hairy surface to study the interaction of microalgae/zoospores with this biomimetic surface covered with "hairs". The synergistic antifouling (AF)/fouling-release (FR) effect of the hair fibers and the surface chemical composition after grafti…

Duck feet collagen was added to threadfin bream and sardine surimi to study its effect on physicochemical properties such as folding test, gel strength, cook loss, water holding capacity, expressible moisture, texture profile analysis and colour measurement. As compared to commercial fish scale collagen and cow collag…
The chemical and morphological properties of thin aluminum oxide film surfaces (Al 2 O 3 having 10 nm in thickness) in the as-deposited (dry) and after immersion (in pH buffer solutions) conditions were studied. Careful measurement conditions have been followed in order to determine any possible physical and/or chemic…
Novel Cu(2+)-based compounds PbCu2(SeO3)2Cl2 (space group C2/c; a = 13.056(1) Å; b = 9.5567(9) Å; c = 6.9006(6) Å; β = 90.529(7)°; RI = 0.0371) and PbCu2(TeO3)2Cl2 (space group P2(1); a = 7.2401(2) Å; b = 7.2688(2) Å; c = 8.2846(2) Å; β = 96.416(2)°; R(I) = 0.0570) have been obtained by solid-state synthesis. Their cr…
Chemical-looping combustion (CLC) is an unmixed combustion concept where fuel and combustion air are kept separate by means of an oxygen carrier, and the CO2 capture is inherently achieved. This work presents findings from a continuously operated 10 kW pilot for solid fuels. Using petcoke as fuel, the following oxygen…
First-principles Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics simulations of small gallium clusters, including parallel tempering, probe the distinction between cluster and molecule in the size range of 7-12 atoms. In contrast to the larger sizes, dynamic measures of structural change at finite temperature demonstrate that Ga7…
The challenges associated with the fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) electrode and electrolyte materials for Li-ion batteries are discussed. The basic issues for achieving a solid 3D cell foundation, which can simultaneously offer sufficient electronic conductivity to enable stable cycling, as well as enough compa…
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset and fast progression neurodegenerative disease that leads to the loss of motor neurons. Mechanisms of selective motor neuron loss in ALS are unknown. The early events occurring in the spinal cord that may contribute to motor neuron death are not described, neither…
This paper numerically explores the possibility of high efficiency, ultrathin, and stable CdTe cells with different back surface field (BSF) using well accepted simulator AMPS-1D (analysis of microelectronics and photonic structures). A modified structure of CdTe based PV cell SnO2/Zn2SnO4/CdS/CdTe/BSF/BC has been pro…
Here we reported a novel biohybrid hydrogel system with the potential for cell culture and controlled drug release.
A series of TiO2 nanocomposite photoanodes with different amounts of Ag nanowire (AgNW) coated with SiO2 in a AgNW@SiO2 core–shell structure are prepared by a ball milling method and applied to assemble a series of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The influence of AgNW@SiO2 on the performance of the TiO2–AgNW photo…
Designers’ visual way of knowing and working tends to be highly valued in design research. In architecture such an approach is increasingly criticized. Since people experience buildings with all their senses, architects’ visual focus is said to the run the risk of disregarding non-visual aspects. This study focuses on…
River sediment depositions on the bottom of rivers most frequently consist of sand and gravel particles with different grain sizes, which make them particularly valuable for building construction. Knowledge of the radioactivity present in building materials enables one to assess any possible radiological hazard to hum…
Two 2D metal-calixarene aggregates were designed and assembled by M4-TC4A (M = Fe, Co; TC4A = p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene) SBUs and {MCl2} units with isonicotinic acid molecules, which presents a possible way to build the extended metal-calixarene assemblies incorporating pre-designed nanocages using multifunctional…
We studied the luminescence properties of copper(I) complexes containing bis[2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl]ether (DPEphos), [Cu(DPEphos)(CH3CN)]PF6 (1), [Cu(DPEphos)2]PF6 (2), and copper(I) complexes with 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene (xantphos), [Cu(xantphos)(CH3CN)2]PF6 (3), [Cu(xantphos)2]PF6 (4) in…
We present the hysteresis of the response of the poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-acrylic acid microgel-based etalons to solution temperature and pH changes. We find that the optical hysteresis of the etalon can be controlled using various solution ionic strengths and/or counterions, as well as by varying the microgel's…
A visible light excitable rhodamine based probe operates as a SCN(-) selective fluorescent "turn-on" sensor for living cell imaging with a detection limit of 0.01 μM, which is much lower than the normal SCN(-) level in the human body. A "lock" and "key" model has been proposed to explain the fluorescence enhancement o…
The Li 2 FeSiO 4 /C composites were prepared using iron starting materials of either insoluble ferrous (FeC 2 O 4 ·2H 2 O) or soluble ferric (Fe(NO 3 ) 3 ·9H 2 O) compounds through sol-gel process and solid state reaction. The pure monoclinic P 2 1 / n with the rough surface consisting of a large amount of open pores…
An in situ seeding growth methodology towards the preparation of core-shell nanoparticles composed of noble metals has been developed by employing trimethylamine borane (TMAB) as the reducing agent. Being a weak reducing agent, TMAB is able to distinguish the smallest reduction potential window of any two metals which…
