Recent Submissions
-
(American Chemical Society, 2018)The control of structures and properties in crystalline materials has many returns that justify the increasing efforts in this direction. Traditionally, crystal engineering focused on the rational design of single component ...
-
(American Chemical Society, 2018)In this work, the influence of the structurally related impurities, Demethoxycurcumin (DMC) and Bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDMC) on the primary nucleation of Curcumin (CUR) has been investigated in propan-2-ol. The induction ...
-
(American Chemical Society, 2018)Drug delivery monitoring and tracking in the human body are two of the biggest challenges in targeted therapy to be addressed by nanomedicine. The ability of imaging drugs and micro-/nanoengineered drug carriers and ...
-
(University of Limerick, 2018)Global atmospheric CO2 levels are currently 409 ppm, an increase of 130 ppm since the pre-industrial era. Efficient mitigation strategies combined with advanced carbon capture technologies are required to address this ...
-
(ACS Publications, 2018)Single atom B or N substitutional doping in single-layer suspended graphene, realised by low energy ion implantation, is shown to induce a dampening or enhancement of the characteristic interband π plasmon of graphene ...
-
Successful encapsulation of β‐glucosidase during the synthesis of siliceous mesostructured materials (Wiley Online Library, 2018)The biocatalysis field demands ‘universal’ supports able to encapsulate enzymes with a straightforward methodology, and at the same time, capable of retaining their catalytic activity. The employment of siliceous materials ...
-
(EDP Sciences, 2018)With the current trend of miniaturisation of electronic devices, piezoelectric fans have attracted increasing interest as a means of inducing forced convection cooling, instead of traditional rotary solutions. Although ...
-
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018)Surface contamination and the formation of water bridge at the nanoscopic contact between an atomic force microscope tip and cell surface limits the maximum achievable spatial resolution on cells under ambient conditions. ...
-
(IWSM, 2018)Non-PH parametric survival modelling is developed within the frame- work of the multiple logistic function. The family considered comprises three basic models: (a) a PH model, (b) an accelerated life model and (c) a model ...
-
(IWSM, 2018)The Weibull multi-parameter regression (MPR) model with frailty is developed for interval censored survival data. The basic MPR model which is wholly parametric with non-proportional hazards was developed by Burke ...
-
(American Chemical Society, 2018)The use of an in-situ immobilization procedure for the immobilization of hyperhalophilic alcohol dehydrogenase in a metal organic framework material is described. The easy and rapid in situ immobilization process enables ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2018)The loss of one copy of SHANK3 (SH3 and multiple ankyrin repeat domains 3) in humans highly contributes to Phelan McDermid syndrome (PMDS). In addition, SHANK3 was identified as a major autism candidate gene. Interestingly, ...
-
(IOP Publishing, 2018)Mechanical instabilities and elastic nonlinearities are emerging engineering means for designing shape-changing devices. In this paper, we exploit the taxonomy of post-buckling behaviours of a glass-fibre panel to design ...
-
Surface plasmon propagation enhancement via bowtie antenna incorporation in au-mica block waveguides (Optical Society of America, 2018)The optimum geometry for waveguide propagation was determined by comparing bowtie and semicircle antenna cuts to a standard plain waveguide with a 635 nm laser. The results of both experimental data and COMSOL simulations ...
-
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)Understanding the thermal behaviour of lignin is crucial in order to realise its valorisation as an engineering polymer. Two hardwood lignins, organosolv (OSL) and chemically modified kraft lignin (ML) have been chosen to ...
-
Mechanical properties, structure, bioactivity and cytotoxicity of bioactive Na-Ca-Si-PO-(N) glasses (Elsevier, 2018)Bioactive glasses are able to bond to bone through formation of carbonated hydroxyapatite in body fluids. However, because of their poor strength their use is restricted to non-load-bearing applications. The effects of ...
-
(2018)Simulated curves compared to recorded data have provided a breadth of insight into mechanisms and kinetic aspects of charge transfer at the liquid|liquid interface (LLI). This is often performed with software employing ...
-
(Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2018)Since theworld economy has been confronted with an increasing risk of supply shortages of critical rawmaterials (CRMs), there has been a major interest in identifying alternative secondary sources of CRMs. Bauxite residues ...
-
(American Chemical Society, 2018)The paper presents an in-depth analysis on the crystallization kinetics of Pebax–graphene composites when processed with and without supercritical fluid carbon dioxide (scCO2) assisted extrusion at various graphene loading ...
-
(Elsevier, 2017)A local dyshomeostasis of zinc ions in the vicinity of amyloid aggregates has been proposed in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) due to the sequestration of zinc in senile plaques. While an increase in zinc levels may promote the ...
