Quantitative Determination of Acrolein in Cider by 1H NMR Spectrometry
(MDPI, 2020-12-08)
Acrolein occasionally appears in cider, completely spoiling its quality due to its bitter taste. It is crucial to detect it in the early steps, before the taste is severely affected, to apply the appropriate treatment. A ...
Surfactant-free latexes as binders in paint applications
(Elsevier, 2022-01)
[EN] The leakage of surfactant from waterborne coatings is a matter of concern. Therefore, there is a strong interest in developing surfactant-free polymer dispersion as binders for waterborne coatings. This will accelerate ...
Nanocomposite Scaffolds for Monitoring of Drug Diffusion in Three-Dimensional Cell Environments by Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy
(American Chemical Society, 2021-10-27)
[EN]Monitoring dynamic processes in complex cellular environments requires the integration of uniformly distributed detectors within such three-dimensional (3D) networks, to an extent that the sensor could provide real-time ...
Soluble Salts Quantitative Characterization and Thermodynamic Modeling on Roman Bricks to Assess the Origin of Their Formation
(MDPI, 2021-05-12)
The environmental weathering and the formation of efflorescences on the brick walls are studied at the “Casa di Diana” Mithraeum at Ostia Antica archaeological site. Previous studies on subsoil, bedrock, hydrological systems ...
Manipulating chemistry through nanoparticle morphology
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-01-01)
We demonstrate that the protonation chemistry of molecules adsorbed at nanometer distances from the surface of anisotropic gold nanoparticles can be manipulated through the effect of surface morphology on the local proton ...
Nd3+-Doped Lanthanum Oxychloride Nanocrystals as Nanothermometers
(American Chemical Society, 2021-09-16)
The development of optical nanothermometers operating in the near-infrared (NIR) is of high relevance toward temperature measurements in biological systems. We propose herein the use of Nd3+-doped lanthanum oxychloride ...
Special Issue on “Function of Polymers in Encapsulation Process”
(MDPI, 2022-03-15)
Encapsulation technology comprises enclosing active agents (core materials) within a homogeneous/heterogeneous matrix (wall material) at the micro/nano scale. In the last few years encapsulation has gained a lot of interest. ...
2D-Coordination polymers based on 1H-indazole-4-carboxylic acid and transition metal ions: magnetic, luminescence and biological properties
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-08-14)
We report the formation of five novel multifunctional coordination polymers based on 1H-indazole-4-carboxylic acid (HL). To the best of our knowledge, these complexes are the first examples of coordination compounds ...
GmcA Is a Putative Glucose-Methanol-Choline Oxidoreductase Required for the Induction of Asexual Development in Aspergillus nidulans
(Public Library of Science, 2012-07-05)
Aspergillus nidulans asexual differentiation is induced by Upstream Developmental Activators (UDAs) that include the bZIP-type Transcription Factor (TF) FlbB. A 2D-PAGE/MS-MS-coupled screen for proteins differentially ...
UrdA Controls Secondary Metabolite Production and the Balance between Asexual and Sexual Development in Aspergillus Nidulans
(MDPI, 2018-11-23)
The genus Aspergillus includes important plant pathogens, opportunistic human pathogens and mycotoxigenic fungi. In these organisms, secondary metabolism and morphogenesis are subject to a complex genetic regulation. Here ...
