A three-dimensional (3D) cell culture system has been fabricated using a magnetic force based cell patterning method, demonstrating a facile approach for the analysis of invasive capacity of BALB/3T3/v-src using an magnetic force and magnetite nanoparticles. The 3D cell patterning was performed using an external magne…
The inclusion of low carbon submerged arc weld metals of a Ti–B system with different aluminum contents has been studied. The inclusions contributing to acicular ferrite nucleation were multi-phase consisting of MnS, MnAl2O4 and amorphous phases. In the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy mapping analysis, inclusions…
A range of platinum deposits, equivalent thicknesses (delta) 0.2-2.5 nm, have been synthesised on carbon and reduced titania (TiO(x)) supports using physical vapour deposition on (10 x 10) arrays of electrodes. For delta < 1.0 nm, discrete platinum centres are formed and the TiO(x) supported platinum show two distinct…
Rutile TiO2 (110) single crystals were doped with nitrogen by heating at 675 °C in flowing NH3 gas. This caused a red shift in the band edge and an increase in visible region absorption. Nitrogen depth profiles obtained using dynamic secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) could best be fitted by assigning three distin…
A kind of closed-microporous hybrid with poly(acrylic acid)-poly(ethylene glycol)-polypyrrole (PAA-PEG-PPy) was synthesized template-free by in situ polymerization and micro-phase separation of PPy in PAA-PEG gel. This novel structure hybrid was used as a matrix in preparing polymer gel electrolytes for quasi-solid-st…
A brief review is presented of transport in the boundary region of magnetized plasmas by blob-like filaments. Such structures have enhanced levels of particles and heat, are elongated along the magnetic field lines and are localized in the drift plane across the field. The motion of an isolated blob structure is descr…
The temperature-dependence of the hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) rate was examined at commercial Pt, Pt3Co, PtRu, and PtRu(1.5) nano-sized catalysts (diameter, d = ca. 3 nm) supported on carbon black in 0.1 M HClO4 solution in the presence and absence of carbon monoxide by use of a channel flow electrode at tempera…
CoNi nanofibers (56 nm length, 6.6 nm width) and nanospheres (24 nm diameter) were synthesized by reduction of ions in a liquid polyol. These powders were then characterized by means of electron microscopy, N2 adsorption, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and magnetometry. Similar properties were…
Structural biology plays a central role in gaining a full understanding of the myriad roles of RNA in biology. In recent years, innovative approaches in RNA purification and crystallographic methods have lead to the visualization of an increasing number of unique structures, providing new insights into its function at…
We study the self-assembly behavior of patchy particles with "proteinlike" interactions that can be considered as a minimal model for the assembly of viral capsids and other shell-like protein complexes. We thoroughly explore the thermodynamics and dynamics of self-assembly as a function of the parameters of the model…
A newly developed multireference (MR) ab initio method for the calculation of magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra was calibrated through the calculation of the ground- and excited state properties of seven high-spin (S = 3/2) Co(II) complexes. The MCD spectra were computed by the explicit treatment of spin-orbit…
Three new metal–organic coordination polymers, [Cd3(5-NO2-bdc)2(5-NO2-bdcH)2(bpyo)2]n (1), [Mn(5-NO2-bdc)(bbim)]n (2) and {[Gd(5-NO2-bdc)(5-NO2-bdcH)](bpyo)0.5·2H2O}n (3) (5-NO2-bdcH2 = 5-nitro-1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid; bpyo = 4,4′-bipyridine-N,N′-dioxide; bbim = 1,1′-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(benzimidazole)), were obta…
New Ce-based Werner type tetrahedrons were achieved for size-selectively luminescent detection of natural carbohydrates through incorporating amide groups as both the multiple hydrogen bonding triggers and binding-signalling transductor.
In order to design the next generation of catalysts, it is crucial that the insights of researchers in heterogeneous catalysis, materials design and spectroscopy are merged. Since the scientific community started to realize that the molecular pattern of a catalyst at room temperature and in vacuum does by no means ref…
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this review was to examine gene therapy involving DNAzyme and siRNA encapsulation into chitosan nanoparticles, discussing the current and future status of this drug delivery system in enhancing drug delivery and cancer therapy. KEY FINDINGS: Cancer is a disease state in which the cells in our bo…
The effect of glass additives on the microstructure, densification, and microwave dielectric properties of cerium oxide for low‐temperature co‐fired applications was investigated. Different weight percentages of quenched glass such as B 2 O 3 , B 2 O 3 –SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 –SiO 2 , ZnO–B 2 O 3 , BaO–B 2 O 3 –SiO 2 , MgO–…
In order to optimize the performance of flexible pavements, one of the key issues which has to be addressed is the characterization and selection of bituminous binders with respect to their capability of contributing to fatigue resistance. In such a context, there is currently the need of developing and validating tes…
Solid-state NMR spectroscopy and GIPAW DFT calculations reveal the pronounced sensitivity of (79/81)Br and (25)Mg quadrupolar coupling constants to subtle aspects of solid state structure which were not previously detected by pXRD methods.
We present a new wrinkling-based measurement technique for quantifying the viscoelastic properties of confined polymer thin films. This approach utilizes real-time laser-light scattering to observe the kinetics of thermally-induced surface wrinkling, which evolves isothermally as a function of annealing time. Specific…
When a nonmagnetic high-strength metallic retaining sleeve offers advantages over a nonmetallic (e.g., carbon fiber) one, it is possible to consider the application of a high-conductivity shield ldquocoatingrdquo on this sleeve to reduce the surface eddy-current losses due to nonsynchronous fields. One can start by us…
