BACKGROUND: Nanoparticle exposure in utero might not be a major concern yet, but it could become more important with the increasing application of nanomaterials in consumer and medical products. Several epidemiologic and invitro studies have shown that nan ...

We have used the pulsed muon source at ISIS to study high-temperature Na-ion dynamics in the quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) metallic antiferromagnet NaV2O4. By performing systematic zero-field and longitudinal-field measurements as a function of temperature w ...
The semimetallic, two-dimensional layered transition metal dichalcogenide WTe2 has raised considerable interest due to its huge, non-saturating magnetoresistance. While for the origin of this effect, a close-toideal balance of electrons and holes has been ...
The selectivity and speed of many biological transport processes(1) transpire from a 'reduction of dimensionality'(2) that confines diffusion to one or two dimensions instead of three(3). This behaviour remains highly sought after on polymeric surfaces(4) ...
We present herein a thorough description of the effects of high glucose concentrations on the diffusion, hydration and internal dynamics of ubiquitin, as predicted from extensive molecular dynamics simulations on several systems described at fully atomisti ...
Firefly luminescence is an intriguing phenomenon with potential technological applications, whose biochemistry background was only recently established. The physics side of this phenomenon, however, was still unclear, specifically as far as the oxygen supp ...

This article reports the grafting-to in melt of amino and carboxy-terminated poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) onto ultrathin nanoporous silicon nitride membranes (NSiNMs) with a mean pore size of 85 +/- 15 nm functionalized respectively with a self-ass ...
The TGF beta family member Nodal is central to control pluripotent stem cell fate, but its use as a stem cell differentiation factor is limited by low specific activity. During development, Nodal depends on growth and differentiation factor (Gdf)-1 and on ...

The performance of a method is assessed which allows for the spatiotemporal tracking of single dye-labeled molecules during two-dimensional (2D) diffusional transits through the focal area of a modified confocal microscope. In addition to facilitating the ...
