Synergistic effect of carboxylic and amine ligands on the synthesis of CdSe nanocrystals

Martinus Gijs, Virendra Kumar Parashar

We demonstrate the drastic improvement in absorbance and photoluminescence (UV-PL) of CdSe nanocrystals (NCs) upon adding both a carboxylic acid and an amine ligand to the cadmium acetate green chemistry source. We combined carboxylate complexes of lauric ...

Dysregulation of soluble epoxide hydrolase and lipidomic profiles in anorexia nervosa

Pierre Magistretti, Jiangyan Yang

Individuals with anorexia nervosa (AN) restrict eating and become emaciated. They tend to have an aversion to foods rich in fat. Because epoxide hydrolase 2 (EPHX2) was identified as a novel AN susceptibility gene, and because its protein product, soluble ...

A rheostat mechanism governs the bifurcation of carbon flux in mycobacteria

Matteo Dal Peraro, John McKinney, Florence Pojer, Giulia Fonti, Paul Murima, Tarun Chopra

Fatty acid metabolism is an important feature of the pathogenicity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis during infection. Consumption of fatty acids requires regulation of carbon flux bifurcation between the oxidative TCA cycle and the glyoxylate shunt. In Escher ...

Structure and Biophysical Properties of a Triple-Stranded Beta-Helix Comprising the Central Spike of Bacteriophage T4

Laure Menin, Petr Leiman, Sergii Buth

Gene product 5 (gp5) of bacteriophage T4 is a spike-shaped protein that functions to disrupt the membrane of the target cell during phage infection. Its C-terminal domain is a long and slender -helix that is formed by three polypeptide chains wrapped aroun ...

Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3-delta (BSCF) feedstock development and optimization for thermoplastic forming of thin planar and tubular oxygen separation membranes

Stefan Diethelm

This paper presents the processing steps for producing thin planar and tubular oxygen separation membranes by thermoplastic forming of Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3-delta (BSCF) with polystyrene (PS) and stearic acid (SA) as binder. The influence of powder conten ...
