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, ...
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 ...
Multimode Vibrational Strong Coupling of Methyl Salicylate to a Fabry−Pérot Microcavity
(American Chemical Society, 2020)
The strong coupling of an IR-active molecular transition with an optical mode of the cavity results in vibrational polaritons, which opens a new way to control chemical reactivity via confined electromagnetic fields of the ...
Alzheimer's disease-related amyloid β peptide causes structural disordering of lipids and changes the electric properties of a floating bilayer lipid membrane
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-06-27)
Neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease is associated with disruption of the neuronal cell membrane by the amyloid β (Aβ) peptide. However, the disruption mechanism and the resulting changes in membrane properties remain ...
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 ...
Physicochemical Properties of Terebic Acid, MBTCA, Diaterpenylic Acid Acetate, and Pinanediol as Relevant α‑Pinene Oxidation Products
(American Chemical Society, 2020-03)
The physicochemical properties and the synthesis of four α-pinene oxidation products, terebic acid, 3-methyl-1,2,3-butanetricarboxylic acid (MBTCA), diaterpenylic acid acetate (DTAA), and pinanediol, are presented in this ...
Chitosan-Based N‑Doped Carbon Materials for Electrocatalytic and Photocatalytic Applications
(American Chemical Society, 2020)
Chitosan-derived N-doped carbon materials are attractive candidates for the preparation of catalysts with a wide range of applications. Chitosan is a nitrogen rich (∼7 wt %) renewable biomass resource derived from seafood ...
Scaling equation for viscosity of polydimethylsiloxane in ethyl acetate: From dilute to concentrated solutions
(Elsevier, 2020)
Rheology of polymer solutions suffers from lack of universal model of viscosity applicable across wide range of concentrations. Here we build such a model on the basis of measured viscosity of polydimethylosiloxane (PDMS) ...
Single-molecule brightness analysis for the determination of anticancer drug interactions with DNA
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020)
Anthracyclines are one of the most studied anticancer drugs approved for medical treatment. The equilibrium constant (K) of the reaction between these drugs with DNA in both in vitro and in vivo experiments lacks consensus. ...
