Characterization of charge transfer excited states in [2Fe–2S] iron–sulfur clusters using conventional configuration interaction techniques
(Springer, 2020-06-22)
The experimental UV–Vis spectra of the biologically relevant [2Fe–2S] iron–sulfur clusters feature typically three bands in the 300–800 nm range. Based on ground-state orbitals and using the one electron transition picture, ...
Neutral Chiral Tetrakis-Iodo-Triazole Halogen-Bond Donor for Chiral Recognition and Enantioselective Catalysis
(Wiley-VCH GmbH, 2020-11-19)
Halogen bonding represents a powerful tool in the field of noncovalent interactions. However, applications in enantioselective recognition and catalysis remain almost nonexistent, due in part to the distinct features of ...
Electrochemical sensor for selective tyramine determination, amplified by a molecularly imprinted polymer film
(Elsevier B.V., 2020-12-06)
A molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) film based electrochemical sensor for selective determination of tyramine was devised, fabricated, and tested. Tyramine is generated in smoked and fermented food products. Therefore, ...
Gravity-driven microfluidic assay for digital enumeration of bacteria and for antibiotic susceptibility testing
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-01-07)
The alarming dynamics of antibiotic-resistant infections calls for the development of rapid and point-of-care (POC) antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) methods. Here, we demonstrated the first completely stand-alone ...
Chemical and structural properties of reduced graphene oxide – dependence on the reducing agent
(Springer, 2020-11-09)
Graphene oxide (GO) prepared from graphite powder using a modified Hummers method and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) obtained from GO using different reductants, i.e. sodium borohydride, hydrazine, formaldehyde, sodium ...
The influence of confinement on the structure of colloidal systems with competing interactions
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020)
Colloidal systems with competing interactions have a complex phase diagram with several periodic microphases, in which particles are arranged in lamellae, cylinders or clusters. Using grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations, ...
Shape Transformations of Vesicles Induced by Their Adhesion to Flat Surfaces
(American Chemical Society, 2020)
The shape transformations of lipid vesicles induced by the adhesion to a flat surface is investigated. We perform the calculations within the framework of the Helfrich spontaneous curvature model. The calculations were ...
Nanomechanical characterization of single phospholipid bilayer in ripple phase with PF-QNM AFM
(Elsevier B.V., 2020-05-07)
Topography and nanomechanical properties of the supported 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC) single bilayer in the ripple phase were investigated by atomic force microscopy with the use of PeakForce ...
Interpretation of Resistance, Capacitance, Defect Density, and Activation Energy Levels in Single-Crystalline MAPbI3
(American Chemical Society, 2020)
Hybrid inorganic–organic lead halide perovskites have attracted a significant research interest in the last 10 years due to their broad-area applications in optoelectronic devices such as solar cells, lasers, photodetectors, ...
Elimination of fast variables in stochastic nonlinear kinetics
(2020-08-21)
A reduced chemical scheme involving a small number of variables is often sufficient to account for the deterministic evolution of the concentration of the main species contributing to a reaction. However, its predictions ...
