Quadrupolar benzobisthiazole-cored arylamines as highly efficient two-photon absorbing fluorophores
(
American Chemical Society
, 2014 , Article)
A computer-aided design of novel D-?-A-?-D styrylamines containing five isomeric benzobisthiazole moieties as the electron-accepting core has revealed the linear centrosymmetric benzo[1,2-d:4,5-d?]bisthiazole as the most ...
Interfacial Phenomenon and Nanostructural Enhancements in Palladium Loaded Lanthanum Hydroxide Nanorods for Heterogeneous Catalytic Applications
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2018 , Article)
Hydrogenation and cross-coupling reactions are of great importance for industrial applications and noble metal based catalysts are filling the void since the last few decades. However, the high cost of noble metals and ...
Sulfobetaines Meet Carboxybetaines: Modulation of Thermo- and Ion-Responsivity, Water Structure, Mechanical Properties, and Cell Adhesion
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
A procedure for the preparation of copolymers bearing sulfobetaine and carboxybetaine methacrylic-based monomers by free-radical polymerization is described and discussed. A combination of monomers affects the upper critical ...
Polyzwitterionic Hydrogels in Engines Based on the Antipolyelectrolyte Effect and Driven by the Salinity Gradient
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
In this paper, we propose and investigate an original approach to energy conversion based on polyzwitterionic hydrogels, which exhibit an antipolyelectrolyte effect that enables them to swell in salt water and shrink in ...
Modulation of wettability, gradient and adhesion on self-assembled monolayer by counterion exchange and pH
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
In this study, two quaternary ammonium salts derived from L-lipoic acid were applied for self-assembled monolayers formation on rough structured gold surface. The derivatives differ in functionality since one possesses ...
Interfaces study of all-polysaccharide composite films
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2018 , Article)
Films made of xylan (X) and quaternized chitosan (QC) were prepared and the interactions of the polysaccharides on interfaces were discussed. According to elemental analysis, the X film contained also cellulose (31%) which ...
Toward an accurate spectrophotometric evaluation of the efficiencies of photocatalysts in processes involving their separation using nylon membranes
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
Many works include the use of nylon membranes to separate the solid particles of photocatalysts from the photocatalytic reactors, before using spectrophotometers to evaluate the catalysts� performance in the photocatalytic ...
2D MXenes as Perspective Immobilization Platforms for Design of Electrochemical Nanobiosensors
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2019 , Article Review)
MXenes are a new group of 2D nanomaterials with fascinating properties including high electrical conductivity, hydrophilic nature, easily tunable structure and high surface area. This is why MXene modified interfaces are ...
Prostate-specific antigen glycoprofiling as diagnostic and prognostic biomarker of prostate cancer
(
Royal Society Publishing
, 2019 , Article Review)
The initial part of this review details the controversy behind the use of a serological level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) for the diagnostics of prostate cancer (PCa). Novel biomarkers are in demand for PCa diagnostics, ...
Antibodies against aberrant glycans as cancer biomarkers
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd
, 2019 , Article Review)
Introduction: The review provides a comprehensive overview about applicability of serological detection of autoantibodies against aberrant glycans as cancer biomarkers. Areas covered: Clinical usefulness of autoantibodies ...
