Naturally occurring photosynthetic systems in plants are supported by elaborate pathways of self-repair that limit the impact of photo-damage. Herein, we demonstrate a complex consisting of two recombinant proteins, phospholipids and a carbon nanotube that ...
The objective of the present study was to characterize the removal of the model surfactant sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) from waters using several radical-based water treatment processes. Fenton's reagent has shown high efficacy in surfactant degr ...
Naturally occurring photosynthetic systems use elaborate pathways of self-repair to limit the impact of photo-damage. Here, we demonstrate a complex consisting of two recombinant proteins, phospholipids and a carbon nanotube that mimics this process. The c ...
The aim of this study was to determine the difference in disinfection between aggregated and dispersed virus. Bacteriophage MS2 was chosen as a surrogate for enteric virus. The first part of this project consisted of characterizing the aggregation of MS2 a ...
Railway ballast consists of crushed aggregate and serves as foundation and drainage for railway tracks. Over time, ballast loses its geotechnical properties and cannot be reused within the rail industry but can be sold on to other users to be utilized as a ...
Surfactant-templated layered silicates are shown to possess complex compositional, structural, and dynamic features that manifest rich and interrelated order and disorder at molecular length scales. Temperature-dependent 1D and 2D solid-state Si-29 NMR mea ...
L-lysine is an essential a-amino acid and a necessary building block for all proteins in the body. As an essential amino acid, L-lysine is not synthesized by humans or animals. Industrially produced L-lysine has therefore a big market as food additive, e.g ...
This work describes the dilute solution and solid-state structure of polyelectrolyte complexes generated from hyperbranched polylysine (HBPL) and various anionic, sodium alkyl sulfate surfactants. In dilute solution, the radius of gyration (Rg) of the HBPL ...
Spent railway ballast is a source of recycled aggregate. Recycling of aggregates contributes to sustainable development by reducing the volume of construction waste going to landfill, reducing transportation and reducing the impact of primary mineral extra ...
It is demonstrated that the concept of surfactant applies to the epitaxial growth of highly strained III-V semiconductors. The pseudomorphic growth regime of InAs on GaAs(001) is extended from 1.5 to 6 monolayers by the use of Te as surfactant. This delaye ...
