We generated transgenic silkworms that synthesized human type I collagen alpha1 chain [alpha1(I) chain] in the middle silk glands and secreted it into cocoons. The initial content of the recombinant alpha1(I) chain in the cocoons of the transgenic silkworms was 0.8%. The IE1 gene, a trans-activator from the baculoviru…

Two-dimensional magic angle flipping (MAF) was employed to measure the Q((n)) distribution in a (29)Si-enriched potassium disilicate glass (K(2)O.2SiO(2)). Relative concentrations of [Q((4))] = 7.2 +/- 0.3%, [Q((3))] = 82.9 +/- 0.1%, and [Q((2))] = 9.8 +/- 0.6% were obtained. Using the thermodynamic model for Q((n)) s…

Cryogenic electrospinning has previously been demonstrated for controlling the pore sizes of electrospun scaffolds, which has been impossible with traditional electrospinning processes. This article describes the application of the cryogenic technique to fabricate a bilayered electrospun poly(D,L-lactide) scaffold (BL…

Abstract The study of support effects on the gold‐catalyzed preferential oxidation of carbon monoxide in the presence of hydrogen (PROX reaction) is possible only with careful control of the gold particle size, which is facilitated by the application of the direct anionic exchange method. Catalytic evaluation of therm…

Powder consolidation assisted by pulsed current and uniaxial pressure, namely, Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS), is increasingly popular. One limitation however lies in the difficulty of controlling the sample temperature during compaction. The aim of this work is to present a computational method for the assembly tempera…

We propose a method based on surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) to estimate the resonance Raman cross sections of dyes. The latter are notoriously difficult (or impossible) to obtain by normal (spontaneous) constant wave Raman spectroscopy when the fluorescence quantum yield of the molecules is good and the over…

PURPOSE: The prognosis for locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) patients continues to be poor, with an estimated five-year survival of only 50-60%. Preclinical data demonstrates enhanced therapeutic efficacy with liposomal encapsulation of doxorubicin combined with hyperthermia (HT). Therefore this phase I/II study w…

In the present study, Fe 3 O 4 /ZnO core/shell nanocrystals (NCs) are synthesized via seed-meditated growth approach in nonhydrolytic condition. The controlling process of thermal pyrolysis of zinc acetate (ZnAc) renders a condition to overgrow ZnO layer on the surface of Fe 3 O 4 NCs (seeds). The transmission electro…

A double quantum dot is formed in a graphene nanoribbon device using three top gates. These gates independently change the number of electrons on each dot and tune the interdot coupling. Transport through excited states is observed in the weakly coupled double dot regime. We extract from the measurements all relevant…

The corrosion inhibitive effects of Pachylobus edulis exudate gum for mild steel in 2 M H2SO4 and influence of potassium halide additives on the inhibition efficiency were investigated using hydrogen evolution and thermometric methods at 30°–60°C. Inhibition efficiency was determined by comparing the corrosion rates i…

The magnetostructural D correlation interrelates the zero-field-splitting parameter D withdrawn from the magnetic data with the structural tetragonality parameter D(str). This correlation allows the quantitative prediction that D < 0 occurs for the tetragonally compressed nickel(II) complexes.
