A quick (less than 1 min) soak of protein crystals in a cryo-solution containing bromide or iodide anions leads to incorporation of these anomalous scatterers into the ordered solvent region around the protein molecules. These halide anions provide a convenient way of phasing through their anomalous scattering signal:…
Structural analysis and thermal conductivity data on ${\mathrm{Sr}}_{8}{\mathrm{Ga}}_{16}{\mathrm{Ge}}_{30}$ and ${\mathrm{Eu}}_{8}{\mathrm{Ga}}_{16}{\mathrm{Ge}}_{30}$ crystals are reported. These compounds form in the cubic space group $\mathrm{Pm}3\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}n$ with lattice parameters of…
A versatile modular system for complex branched polymer architectures has been developed through exploitation of the multibranching polymerization chemistry of glycidol. This report summarizes recent advances in the preparation of these novel polymers and describes the modular concept used to tailor their topology to…

Nanoporous silica films are of interest to the semiconductor industryas low dielectric constant intermetal materials. Here the controlled synthesis of highly porous silica films with dielectric constants between ≈1.8 and ≈2.5 is described using a polyethylene ether surfactant to template the porosity and a spin-on sol…
Giant enhancement of the dielectric properties has been measured at the percolation threshold of a metal–insulator functional, graded composite using an in–situ electrical probe. The system reported (Mullite–Mo) combines very good thermal stability, low leakage currents, and very high capacitance, using dielectric mat…
x Ray crystallography is currently the most favoured technique for structure determination of proteins and biological macromolecules. Increasingly, those interested in all branches of the biological sciences require structural information to shed light on previously unanswered questions. Furthermore, the availability…
We have studied charge injection and charge transport in thin disordered films of CdSe nanocrystals between metal electrodes. Current–voltage characteristics of these devices are investigated as a function of electrode material, nanocrystal size, and temperature. We measure the photocurrent response of these structure…
A miscible homopolymer–copolymer pair viz., poly(ethyl methacrylate) (PEMA)–poly(styrene-co-butyl acrylate) (SBA) is reported. The miscibility has been studied using differential scanning calorimetry. While 1 : 1 (w/w) blends with SBA containing 23 and 34 wt % styrene (ST) become miscible only above 225 and 185 °C res…
MOTIVATION: Typesetting, shading and labeling of nucleotide and peptide alignments using standard word processing or graphics software is time consuming. Available automatic sequence shading programs usually do not allow manual application of additional shadings or labels. Hence, a flexible alignment shading package w…
The fabrication and properties of polymer network–stabilized liquid crystals, formed by polymerization of a small amount of a bifunctional photoreactive monomer dissolved in a liquid-crystalline phase, are reviewed. The polymer network morphology is strongly related to preparation conditions such as monomer content, p…
PURPOSE: To investigate the accumulation and cellular uptake of long-circulating dextran-coated iron oxide (LCDIO) particles in malignant neoplasms in vivo. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A gliosarcoma rodent model was established to determine the distribution of a model LCDIO preparation in tumors. LCDIO accumulation in tiss…
There has been tremendous progress in the area of organic electronic materials and devices recently. However, many challenges and problems remain to be addressed for practical applications of such materials and devices. This article seeks to summarize some of the important recent materials-related research on organic…
A photocrosslinkable chitosan to which both azide and lactose moieties were introduced (Az-CH-LA) was prepared as a biological adhesive for soft tissues and its effectiveness was compared with that of fibrin glue. Introduction of the lactose moieties resulted in a much more water-soluble chitosan at neutral pH. Applic…

The polarization resistance method for the determination of instantaneous corrosion rates of metals were reviewed. The assumptions in electrode kinetics that govern the connection between the slope of steady-state applied electrochemical potential-applied current density (Eapp-iapp) measurements (i.e., the polarizatio…
A series of molecular-dynamics simulations using a many-body interatomic potential has been performed to investigate the behavior under load of several 〈001〉 and 〈011〉 symmetrical tilt grain boundaries (GB's) in diamond. Cohesive energies, the work for fracture, maximum stresses and strains, and toughness as a functio…
Poly(propylene) compounds containing organophilic layered nanosilicates were prepared by means of melt extrusion at 210°C in order to investigate the role of silicate modification and compatibilizer addition on morphology development and mechanical properties. Synthetic sodium fluoromica was used as water swellable la…
The glass transition temperature T(g) and the temperature T(alpha) corresponding to the peak in the dielectric loss due to the alpha process have been simultaneously determined as functions of film thickness d through dielectric measurements for polystyrene thin films supported on glass substrate. The dielectric loss…
Strong room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) in the wavelength range 650–950 nm has been observed in high temperature annealed (1000–1300 °C) substoichiometric silicon oxide (SiOx) thin films prepared by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. A marked redshift of the luminescence peak has been detected by increa…
