Sterically geared tris-thioureas; transmembrane chloride transporters with unusual activity and accessibility

2015

Tris-N-arylthioureas derived in one step from 1,3,5-tris(aminomethyl)-2,4,6-triethylbenzene are remarkably effective anion carriers. With optimised aryl substituents their activities come close to the best currently known, suggesting that they might find use as readily available standards in anion transport research.

Structural and compositional analysis of anodic films on Al-Nb sputter-deposited alloys

2006

The photoelectrochemical behavior of anodic films on Al alloys, containing titanium, tantalum, and tungsten (valve metals), has been studied as a function of alloy composition and anodizing conditions. Photocurrent spectroscopy has been used to get information on bandgap and the flatband potential values of different mixed oxides. Both insulator-like and semiconducting behavior has been observed for anodic oxides grown on Al-W and Al-Ti alloys dependent on alloy initial composition. Optical bandgap values, Eg,opt, of different oxides are in accordance with predictions based on the correlation between Eg,opt and the difference of electronegativities of the oxide constituents, indicating pote…

Inhibitoren der Korrosion (11). Nachweis der auf Eisengrenzflächen gebildeten Sekundärinhibitoren durch UV-Absorptions- und Fluoreszenzspektroskopie

1972

Aus Triphenylbenzylphosphoniumchlorid bildet sich in saurer Losung auf der Eisenoberflache eine Schicht, die aufgrund der UV-Reflexionsspektroskopie mit Triphenylphosphin identisch sein durfte. Auch das Mono- und Bis-Phosphoniumsalz wird an der Eisengrenzflache reduktiv abgebaut; die dabei entstehenden Anthracenderivate werden auf dieselbe Weise identifiziert. Es handelt sich um Methylanthracen. Die zur weiteren Aufgliederung der Reaktionsprodukte vorgenommene dunnschicht-chromatografische Auftrennung (Untersuchung des Extrakts in Cyclohexanol und Methanol) ergibt kein sich deutlich unterscheidenden Fluoreszenzspektren. Identification, by UV absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, of the …

Selective Antimicrobial Effects of Curcumin@Halloysite Nanoformulation: A Caenorhabditis elegans Study

2019

Alterations in the normal gastrointestinal microbial community caused by unhealthy diet, environmental factors, and antibiotic overuse may severely affect human health and well-being. Novel antimicrobial drug formulations targeting pathogenic microflora while not affecting or even supporting symbiotic microflora are urgently needed. Here we report fabrication of a novel antimicrobial nanocontainer based on halloysite nanotubes loaded with curcumin and protected with a dextrin outer layer (HNTs+Curc/DX) and its effective use to suppress the overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria in Caenorhabditis elegans nematodes. Nanocontainers have been obtained using vacuum-facilitated loading of hydrophobic …

The influence of Sb doping on the local structure and disorder in thermoelectric ZnO:Sb thin films

2023

The experiment at HASYLAB/DESY was performed within the project I-20200161 EC.

Institute of Solid State Physics, University of Latvia as the Center of Excellence has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 Framework Programme H2020-WIDESPREAD-01–2016-2017-TeamingPhase2 under grant agreement No. 739508, project CAMART2. This work was carried out in part through the use of the INL Advanced Electron Microscopy, Imaging and Spectroscopy Facility. This work (proposal ID 2018–020-022469) was car…

Spectroelectrochemistry of cytochrome c and azurin immobilized in nanoporous antimony-doped tin oxide

2011

Stable immobilization of two redox proteins, cytochrome c and azurin, in a thin film of highly mesoporous antimony-doped tin oxide is demonstrated via UV-vis spectroscopic and electrochemical investigation.

Natural Compounds as Sustainable Additives for Biopolymers

2020

In the last few decades, the interest towards natural compounds, coming from a natural source and biodegradable, for biopolymers is always increasing because of a public request for the formulation of safe, eco-friendly, and sustainable materials. The main classes of natural compounds for biopolymers are: (i) naturally occurring fillers (nFil), such as nano-/micro- sized layered alumino-silicate: halloysite, bentonite, montmorillonite, hydroxyapatite, calcium carbonate, etc.; (ii) naturally occurring fibers (nFib), such as wood and vegetable fibers; (iii) naturally occurring antioxidant molecules (nAO), such as phenols, polyphenols, vitamins, and carotenoids. However, in this short review, …
