Multifunctional Polymeric Platform of Magnetic Ferrite Colloidal Superparticles for Luminescence, Imaging, and Hyperthermia Applications
(2016)Adequately designed multiresponsive water-soluble graft copolymers were used to serve as a multifunctional polymeric platform for the encapsulation and transfer in aqueous media of hydrophobic magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). ... -
Room-temperature deposited fluorine-doped tantalum pentoxide for stable organic solar cells
(2022)Earth-abundant transition metal oxides deposited at room temperature with low-cost methods suitable for large area manufacturing can offer advances in many fields of energy related devices. Here we report the room-temperature ... -
A simple methodology for producing super-hydrophobic composite films on various substrates
(2008)Various nanoparticles (silicon oxide, tin oxide and aluminium oxide) were mixed with poly (methyl siloxane) (Rhodorsil 224). The mixtures were sprayed on silicon substrates resulting in the formation of a rough, two-length-scaled ... -
Smart polymersomes and hydrogels from polypeptide-based polymer systems through α-amino acid N-carboxyanhydride ring-opening polymerization. From chemistry to biomedical applications
(2018)The synthesis of smart stimuli-responsive polymeric materials for nanomedicine applications has attracted the interest of a large number of scientists that focuses on the effective encapsulation of pharmaceutical compounds ... -
A unique hydrophobic cluster near the active site contributes to differences in borrelidin inhibition, among threonyl-tRNA synthetases
(2005)Borrelidin, a compound with anti-microbial and anti-angiogenic properties, is a known inhibitor of bacterial and eukaryal threonyl-tRNA synthetase (ThrRS). The inhibition mechanism of borrelidin is not well understood. ...
