In all organisms the Signal Recognition Particle (SRP), binds to signal sequences of proteins destined for secretion or membrane insertion as they emerge from translating ribosomes. In Archaea and Eucarya, the conserved ribonucleoproteic core is composed of two proteins, the accessory protein SRP19, the essential GTPa…
We use scanning fluorescence microscopy and electron beam lithography to probe the mechanism of fluorescence enhancement by periodic arrays of silver nanostructures, determining the optimum size and spacing of both Ag nanowires and Ag nanocolumns for incident light of different wavelengths and polarizations. Finite di…
Abstract Thermomechanical and rheological properties of epoxy blends modified with different percentages of a hyperbranched polymer have been reported. The addition of the hyperbranched modifier did not alter the rheological behavior of the blend. This effect is particularly advantageous for some composite manufacturi…
We combine first-principles density-functional theory with matrix Green's function calculations to predict the structures and charge transport characteristics of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of four classes of systems in contact with Au(111) electrodes: conjugated polyene chains (n = 4, 8, 12, 16, and 30) thiolate…
We present an optical conductivity of ${\text{EuB}}_{6}$ over a wide range (2 meV--5.5 eV) from reflectivity and ellipsometry measurements. Upon the ferromagnetic transition at ${T}_{c}=15.5\text{ }\text{K}$, interband transition ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{1}(\ensuremath{\omega})$ decreases below $\ensuremath{\omega}=3.3…
The reactions of the Delta L and Lambda L isomers of [Co( l-Hcys- N, S)(en) 2] (2+) ( l-H 2cys = l-cysteine) with CuCl in aqueous HCl gave Co (III)Cu (I) dinuclear complexes with the same S-bridged structures, Delta L- 1 and Lambda L- 1. When Delta L- 1 was treated with CdCl 2 in water, a 1D wavelike (Co (III) 2Cd (II…
Abstract A chemical grafting method was applied to modify TiO2 nanoparticles through covalently introducing glycidoxypropyltrimethoxy silicane (KH560) followed by polyoxymethylene onto the particles to overcome the disadvantages generated by the agglomeration of nanoparticles. TiO2 nanoparticles unmodified and modifie…
The aim of this study was to investigate the use of Ca(EDTA) 2− and triethyl phosphate (TEP) to regulate the hydrothermal crystallization of hydroxyapatite (HA) films. HA was coated on various substrates including titanium, Ti6Al4V, grit-blasted Ti6Al4V, 316 stainless steel, and Co28Cr6Mo via hydrothermal synthesis at…
Abstract Lead pentacyanonitrosylferrate (PbPCNF), a new Prussian blue analog, was immobilized on the surface of a carbon ceramic electrode (CCE) prepared by sol‐gel method. The immobilization process consists of adding a certain amount of metallic lead to the electrode matrix before gelation, and chemical derivatizati…
Abstract The dynamic optimization of batch crystallizers has been widely studied. A simplified method of optimization inspired from nonlinear model predictive control with a receding horizon is introduced and tested on many different objective functions with various constraints. The proposed optimization method with a…
Using a self-diffraction experiment with 7ns pulses at 532nm we studied a silicon nitride film containing silicon nanoclusters (nc-Si) of 3.1+/-0.37 nm mean size. The sample was prepared by remote plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (RPECVD), and we found that its nonlinearity consists of a combination of electr…
In this article, the microstructure properties of a novel Pb-free solder composite were examined. A binary nickel-titanium shape memory alloy (SMA) fiber was used to reinforce the Sn-rich matrix, to take advantage of the superelastic properties of the fiber. The objective of this study was to understand long-term, hig…
A piezoelectric immunosensor for sensing the low molecular weight neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), one of two major inhibitory neurotransmitters in the central nervous system, is described. The sensing interface consists of a dextran layer covalently attached to a self-assembled monolayer of thiolamine…
Tissue engineering is a promising approach, not only for cartilage, but also for osteochondral repair. Recent studies have demonstrated that scaffold-free cartilaginous tissue can be engineered using the alginate-recovered-chondrocyte (ARC) method. This method has also been applied to form osteochondral tissue using b…
The paper presents first experiments with a refractive light sword optical element (LSOE). A refractive version of the LSOE was prepared in photoresist by gray scale photolithography. Then we examined chromatic aberrations of the produced element and compared them with those corresponding to two different lenses. For…
N-Substituted porphyrins are well-known for the distortion they exhibit of the porphyrin plane through the sp(3) hybridization of one of the pyrrolenic units. They have served as model compounds in investigations of many biochemical processes. In this paper, we developed an efficient route to N-substituted porphyrins,…
Improvements in the manner in which the potential energy surface (PES) is generated in the vibrational self-consistent field (VSCF) method have been implemented. The PES can now be computed over a flexible range of displacements and following normal mode displacement vectors expressed in internal rather than Cartesian…
This paper, written in celebration of Professor Robin H. Stokesʼ 90th birthday anniversary, describes isopiestic measurements and the development of a thermodynamic model for the highly important MgCl 2 + CaCl 2 + H 2 O system at (25 and 50) °C. The isopiestic method has been used to determine the osmotic coefficients…
Temperature-dependent Raman-scattering studies of ${\text{Tb}}_{2}{\text{Ti}}_{2}{\text{O}}_{7}$ geometrically frustrated pyrochlore are presented. The Raman spectra have shown softening of the majority of modes upon cooling in the whole temperature range studied and large decrease in linewidths. These changes have be…
As recently proposed, the singlet-excited states of several cyanoaromatics react with pyridine via bonded-exciplex formation, a novel concept in photochemical charge transfer reactions. Presented here are electronic and steric effects on the quenching rate constants, which provide valuable support for the model. Addit…
