Multidrug resistance (MDR) is one of the factors in the failure of anticancer chemotherapy. In order to enhance the anticancer effect of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates, inhibition of the P-gp efflux pump on MDR cells is a good tactic. We designed novel multifunctional drug-loaded alpha-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol…

This work proposes a thermally rotatable grating that is based on hybrid-aligned cholesteric liquid crystals (HBA-cholesteric LCs). Experiments reveal that the HBA-cholesteric texture has a uniformly striped domain, which forms a grating, when the ratio of the cell gap to the helical pitch (d/p) is in the range of 2≤d…

contrast agents are small molecule chelates of gadolinium [Gd(III)] that affect bound water proton relaxivity. Both the small size and monomeric nature of these agents ultimately limits the image resolution enhancement that can be achieved for both contrast enhancement and pharmacokinetic/biodistribution reasons. The…

Metal corrosion is an electrochemical reaction between the environment and a metal, in which microbes are thought to play a very important role. The rates at which various types of metals corrode are dependent upon environmental conditions as well as on the type of metals. The most well studied bacteria involved in bi…

Bodipy laser dyes are highly efficient but degrade rapidly in solution by reacting with in situ generated singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)). To increase the lasing lifetimes of these dyes, we have designed and synthesised two different congeners of the widely studied Pyrromethene 567 (PM567) by substitution at the boron centre…
