Three structurally similar compounds, , bearing a fluorescence chromophore to which are appended morpholine, thiomorpholine and methylpiperazine substituents, display opposite fluorescence responses to pH changes, in contrast to that observed for fluorescein; and have extremely high binding selectivity towards Ag(+) i…
The synthesis and characterization of solution processable donor–acceptor–donor (D–A–D) based conjugated molecules with varying ratios of thiophene as donor (D) and benzothiadiazole as acceptor (A) are reported. Optical, electrochemical, thermal, morphological and organic thin film transistor (OTFT) device properties…
The results of a high-resolution ambient STM study of 'sulflower' (octathio[8]circulene) and 'selenosulflower' (sym-tetraselena-tetrathio[8]circulene) molecules, immobilized in a hydrogen-bonded matrix of trimesic acid (TMA) at the solid-liquid interface, are compared with the STM and X-ray structure of separate host…
The antimicrobial activities of fullerene C60 and its derivatives against 6 kinds of bacteria and 2 kinds of fungi were evaluated. The tested samples were water-soluble fullerenes (polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/C60, gamma-cyclodextrin (gamma-CD)/C60, and nano-C60) and 3 types of fullerenols (C60(OH)12, C60(OH)36.8H2O, an…
Blue titanium suboxide nanoparticles (including Magneli phases) were formed directly without any post-processing or addition of dopants by combustion of titanium-tetra-isopropoxide (TTIP) vapor at atmospheric pressure. Particle size, phase composition, rutile and anatase crystal sizes as well as the blue coloration we…
While the regeneration of a lost tissue is known to mankind for several years, it is only in the recent past that research on regenerative medicine/dentistry has gained momentum and eluded the dramatic yet scientific advancements in the field of molecular biology. The growing understanding of biological concepts in th…
In clinical applications of magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia for cancer treatment it is very important to ensure a maximum damage to the tumor while protecting the normal tissue. The resultant heating pattern by the nanoparticle distribution in tumor is closely related to the injection parameters. In this study we d…
We have succeeded in preparing Au/Pd core-shell nanoparticles in apo-ferritin and improving the catalytic reactivity of olefin hydrogenation relative to Pd0 nanoparticles in the cage.
The use of a coarse-grained (CG) model that is widely used in molecular dynamics simulations of biomolecular systems is investigated with respect to the dependence of a variety of quantities upon the size of the used integration time step and cutoff radius. The results suggest that when using a non-bonded interaction-…
The protonation of a transition-metal hydride is a formally simple process between a proton donor and a proton acceptor with several potential basic centres. The detailed mechanism is however quite subtle, with multistep reactions and involvement of different intermediates. The process is furthermore very sensitive to…
Well-defined 3D Fe(3)S(4) flower-like microspheres were synthesized via a simple biomolecule-assisted hydrothermal process for the first time. On the basis of a series of contrast experiments, the probable growth mechanism and fabrication process of the products were proposed. The electrical conductivity property of t…
We study the origin of the strong difference in the resistivity of focused‐electron‐ and focused‐Ga‐ion‐beam‐induced deposition (FEBID and FIBID, resp.) of Pt performed in a dual beam equipment using as the precursor gas. We have performed in‐situ and ex‐situ resistance measurements in both types of nanodeposits, find…
Electron donating substituents such as 3,4,5-trimethoxy phenyl (PDI1), thiophene (PDI2), 6-methoxy naphthyl (PDI3), 5-hexyl dithiophene (PDI4) and thioanthrenyl (PDI5) moieties incorporated at the bay region of N,N′-dodecylperylene diimide (PDI) derivatives have been synthesized and characterised. The absorption maxim…
Medical science has vastly improved on the means and methods available for the treatment of wounds in the clinic. The production and use of various types of skin substitutes has led to dramatic improvements in the odds of survival for severely burned patients, but they have also shown promise for many other applicatio…
6,13-Bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl) (TIPS)-pentacene has proven to be a promising soluble p-type material for organic thin film transistors as well as for photovoltaics. In this work, we show that adding electron-withdrawing nitrile functional groups to TIPS-pentacene turns it into an n-type material, which can be used…
A new approach based on volume preserving motion by mean curvature for treating surface tension in two-phase flows is introduced. Many numerical tests and a theoretical justification are included which provide evidence regarding the efficacy of the new approach. For many flows, which exhibit stiff surface tension effe…
Effective hydrolysis of pretreated lignocellulose mediated by cellulase requires an in-depth understanding of cellulase adsorption and desorption. Here we developed a simple method for determining the adsorbed cellulase on cellulosic materials or pretreated lignocellulose, which involves (i) hydrolysis of adsorbed cel…
Abstract The fundamental features and industrial applications of the direct fluorination of polymers are reviewed. Direct fluorination of polymers (i.e., treatment of a polymer surface with gaseous fluorine mixtures) proceeds spontaneously at room temperature and is a surface modification process. More than 25 polymer…
We present here a detailed overview on the effect of various synthesis parameters during the synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles with different shapes, through decomposition of a preformed iron oleate complex, at high temperature. While this procedure has been previously shown to produce monodisperse magnetite spher…
Studies of the average crystal structure properties of human dental apatite as a function of age in the range of 5-87 years are reported. The crystallinity of the dental hydroxyapatite decreases with the age. The a-lattice constant that is associated with the carbonate content in carbonate apatite decreases with age i…
