Fast successive self-nucleation and annealing (SSA) thermal fractionation protocol for the characterization of polyolefin blends from mechanical recycling
(Wiley, 2022-04-29)
The sorting stage of mechanical recycling of post-consumer polyolefins has severe challenges. Polypropylene (PP) is often contaminated with polyethylene (PE) and vice versa. To meet quality requirements, characterization ...
Secondary Phosphine Oxides: Bifunctional Ligands in Catalysis
(Willey, 2020-06-10)
Metal complexes of secondary phosphine oxides (SPOs) were introduced as homogeneous catalysts in the 1980s for hydroformylation and hydrogenation with platinum as the metal. As neutral species, the ligand properties resemble ...
Identification and functional characterization of the putative members of the CTDK-1 kinase complex as regulators of growth and development in Aspergillus nidulans and Aspergillus fumigatus
(American Society of Microbiology, 2023-11)
Asexual spores are the main vehicle used by fungi to disperse to new niches. The Eurotiomycete Aspergillus nidulans is the main reference for the study of the genetic/molecular control of asexual development. In this ...
Fluorine-Free Poly(ionic Liquid)s Binders for the Aqueous Processing of High-Voltage NMC811 Cathodes
(Wiley, 2023-12)
The use of water-soluble binders enables the transition to more sustainable batteries by the replacement of toxic N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) by water. Herein, two new fluorine-free poly(ionic liquid)s are proposed as ...
Nanozymes with versatile redox capabilities inspired in metalloenzymes
(RSC, 2023)
Metalloenzymes represent exemplary systems in which an organic scaffold combines with a functional inorganic entity, resulting in excellent redox catalysts. Inspired by these natural hybrid biomolecules, biomolecular ...
High-throughput virtual search of small molecules for controlling the mechanical stability of human CD4
(Elsevier, 2024-04)
Protein mechanical stability determines the function of a myriad of proteins, especially proteins from the extracellular matrix. Failure to maintain protein mechanical stability may result in diseases and disorders such ...
Eutectogels as a Semisolid Electrolyte for Organic Electrochemical Transistors
(ACS, 2024-02)
Organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) are signal transducers offering high amplification, which makes them particularly advantageous for detecting weak biological signals. While OECTs typically operate with aqueous ...
Candida albicans cDNA library screening reveals novel potential diagnostic targets for invasive candidiasis
(Elsevier, 2024-07)
The detection of patterns associated with the invasive form of Candida albicans, such as Candida albicans germ tube antibodies (CAGTA), is a useful complement to blood culture for Invasive Candidiasis (IC) diagnosis. As ...
Innovative strategy for developing PEDOT composite scaffold for reversible oxygen reduction reaction
(ACS, 2024-04)
Metal–air batteries are an emerging technology with great potential to satisfy the demand for energy in high-consumption applications. However, this technology is still in an early stage, facing significant challenges such ...
Resembling graphene/polymer aerogel morphology for advancing the CO2/N2 selectivity of the postcombustion CO2 capture process
(ACS, 2024-04)
The separation of CO2 from N2 remains a highly challenging task in postcombustion CO2 capture processes, primarily due to the relatively low CO2 content (3–15%) compared to that of N2 (70%). This challenge is particularly ...
