According to the World Health Organization worldwide obesity has more than doubled since 1980. The World health statistics 2012 report shows that one in six adults is obese, one in ten diabetic and one in three has a raised blood pressure. Overweight and o ...
We determined the CO oxidation rates for size-selected Pt-n (n is an element of {3,7,10}) clusters deposited onto TiO2(110). In addition, we investigated the cluster morphologies and their mean sizes before and after the reaction. While the clusters are fa ...
Tryptic digestion of proteins in trypsin loaded porous silica has been shown to be highly efficient. Enzymatic silica-reactors were prepared by immobilizing trypsin into macroporous ordered siliceous foam (MOSF) and into mesoporous SBA-15 silica which has ...
Our work investigates the precipitation mechanism of a seeded calcium carbonate reaction, by using cryogenic TEM to observe the early stages of the reaction. The early precipitation of a hydrated phase is proposed as an intermediate phase before transforma ...
A nanoreactor based on mesoporous silicates is described for efficient tryptic digestion of proteins within the mesochannels. Cyano-functionalized mesoporous silicate (CNS), with an average pore diameter of 18 nm, is a good support for trypsin, with rapid ...
A phospho-directed nanoreactor with multiple functions is reported. Alumina-functionalized macroporous ordered silica foams (Al-MOSF) have been developed with large pore size, high pore volume (1.6 cm(3)/g), and a surface area of 186 m(2)/g rich in coordin ...
