In an integrated biorefinery concept, biological hydrogen and methane production from lignocellulosic substrates appears to be one of the most promising alternatives to produce energy from renewable sources. However, lignocellulosic substrates present compositional and structural features that can limit their conversi…
In this paper, one-dimensional (1D) mesoporous single-crystalline Co₃O₄ nanobelts are synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method followed by calcination treatment. The as-prepared nanobelts have unique mesoporous structures, which are constructed by many interconnected nanocrystals with sizes of about 20-30 nm. And t…
Dynamic light scattering (DLS) analyses are routinely used in biology laboratories to detect aggregates in macromolecular solutions, to determine the size of proteins, nucleic acids, and complexes or to monitor the binding of ligands. This article is written for graduate and undergraduate students with access to DLS a…
Cationic poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers were widely used as nonviral gene carriers. PAMAM dendrimer-based products such as Superfect and Priofect were already commercially available gene transfection reagents. However, these products are based on high generation dendrimers with high cost and serious cytotoxicity.…
We recently reviewed the experimental determination of the volume fraction, ϕ, of hard-sphere colloids, and concluded that the absolute value of ϕ was unlikely to be known to better than ±3–6%. Here, in a second part to that review, we survey effects due to softness in the interparticle potential, which necessitates t…
A detailed phenomenology of low energy excitations is a crucial starting point for microscopic understanding of complex materials, such as the cuprate high-temperature superconductors. Because of its unique momentum-space discrimination, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) is ideally suited for this task…
Doping duo: Mesoporous graphene doped with both N and S atoms (N-S-G) was prepared in one step and studied as an electrochemical catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The catalyst shows excellent ORR performance comparable to that of commercial Pt/C. The outstanding activity of N-S-G results from both the…
Density functional theory was employed to investigate grain boundary (GB) properties of W alloys. A range of substitutional solutes across the Periodic Table was investigated to understand the behavior of different electronic orbitals in changing the GB cleavage energy in the Σ27a[110]{525} GB. A number of transition…
Abstract The impact of the number and positions of Rb ions in the RbCo[Fe(CN)6] Prussian blue analogue is analyzed by means of complete active space self‐consistent field (CASSCF) and subsequent second‐order perturbation theory (CASPT2) calculations performed upon embedded cluster models. It is shown that the geometri…
Incredibly rich in lithium: The ternary silicides Li7CuSi2 with the linear [Si-Cu-Si]7− Zintl anion (see picture) and Li7.3CuSi3 are compounds with the highest lithium content in the ternary system. The crystal and electronic structures of both compounds are discussed.
This study describes a novel fabrication technique to grow gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) directly on seeded ZnO sacrificial template/polymethylsilsesquioxanes (PMSSQ)/Si using low-temperature hydrothermal reaction at 80°C for 4 h. The effect of non-annealing and various annealing temperatures, 200°C, 300°C, and 400°C, of…
In this work two phenol biosensors, one based on polyaniline nanofibers (PNFs) and the other based on the newly created and introduced linear-dendritic matrix of poly(citric acid)-block-poly(ethylene glycol) copolymers (PCA-PEG-PCA), were chemically modified with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) enzyme. These phenol biose…
BACKGROUND: Advanced ovarian cancer is characterized by peritoneal metastasis and the accumulation of ascites. Peritoneal metastasis of ovarian cancer is a major cause of the negative treatment outcome, as these metastases are resistant to most chemotherapy regimens. The aim of this study was to clarify aggressive pat…
The solubility of febuxostat in ethyl acetate, methanol, ethanol, and acetone was determined respectively by the gravimetric method from (293.15 to 328.15) K under atmospheric pressure, and the experimental data were well-correlated by the Apelblat and van’t Hoff equations. The experimental solubility data and their c…
In this paper, we present a simple and rapid method for deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) detection using gold nanoparticle probes coupled with dynamic light scattering (DLS) analysis. The redox agent 1,4-dithio-dl-threitol cross-links the gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to form clusters, while the monothiol DNA could terminate…
Dissolved hexachlororuthenate(IV) effectively catalyzes the photodecomposition of chloroform to hydrogen chloride and phosgene under near-UV (λ > 345 nm) irradiation, whereby RuCl6(2-) is not itself photocatalytically active, but is photochemically transformed into a species that is active, possibly RuCl5 (CHCl3 )(-)…
Abstract Four ternary selenoantimonates, Ag2SbSe3(enH) (I), KCu2SbSe3 (II), Cu2SbSe3(pdaH2)0.5 (III), and Cu2SbSe3(bdaH2)0.5 (IV) (en = ethylenediamine, pda = propanediamine, bda = butanediamine) were synthesized by solvothermal reactions using amines as solvents. The structures consist of M/Sb (M = Cu, Ag) intermetal…
Abstract 3‐Methactyloxylpropyltrimethoxyl silane (KH‐570)‐modified polystyrene (PS) nanospheres and PS nanospheres were prepared and used to absorb 2,4,6‐trinitrotoluene. The absorbed amount reached 2.81 mg/g for KH‐570‐modified PS nanospheres at 298 K and pH 6 when the initial 2,4,6‐trinitrotoluen concentration was 5…
This study simulates thermal conductivity via a carrier scattering mechanism and the related parameters are obtained based on first principles for intrinsic and doped silicon carbide (SiC) over a temperature range of 300-1450 K. The theoretical analysis results show that the thermal conductivity decreases with increas…
Replacement of hydrogen with hydrocarbon fuels in solid-oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) is an appealing alternative for reducing the implementation costs of SOFCs technology, but the electrode stability and susceptibility to carbon deposition still remain important issues to be solved. The present in situ photoelectron micro…
