This thesis is concerned with supramolecular architectures assembled at metal surfaces. The investigations pursued two objectives. On the one hand, the focus was placed on the fabrication of low-dimensional surface-supported network structures by applying ...
The excited-state dynamics of a series of electron donor−acceptor bridged systems (DABS) consisting of a boron−dipyrromethene chromophore covalently linked to a dinitro-substituted triptycene has been investigated using femtosecond time-resolved spectrosco ...
Two protocols of covalent attachment of proteins onto the calcite surface, viz. one using the metallochelat and second using the aminohexil, are elaborated. Single molecule force spectroscopy method has been used to test their efficiency and practical appl ...
We have previously shown that the switch from N-cadherin to OB-cadherin expression increases intercellular adhesion between fibroblasts during their transition from a migratory to a fibrogenic phenotype. Using atomic force microscopy we here show that part ...
The present invention concerns an intermediate of the following formula (I) in which R1 and R2 represent independently of each other a C1-C12 alkyl group, a (C1-C12 alkoxy)carbonyl group, optionally substituted by one, two or three halogen atom, a (C2-C12 ...
We present in this work a new technique, which combines laser photofragmentation spectroscopy with tandem mass spectrometry, for structural investigations of biomolecular ions in the gas phase. A novel apparatus was designed and built for the implementatio ...
The strong cationic Bronsted acids [H(OEt2)2][Al{OC(CF3)3}4] (1) and [H(THF)2][Al{OC(CF3)3}4] (2) were prepd. in up to 95% yield by reacting stoichiometric amts. of di-Et ether/THF solns. of Li[Al{OC(CF3)3}4] and HX (X = Cl, Br), removing the solvent, and ...
Chaotropic agents are cosolutes that can disrupt the hydrogen bonding network between water molecules and reduce the stability of the native state of proteins by weakening the hydrophobic effect. In this work, we represent the chaotropic agent as a factor ...
During wound healing and in a variety of fibrocontractive diseases, fibroblasts differentiate into contractile myofibroblasts by acquiring stress fibers and by expressing α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). Myofibroblasts of wound granulation tissue, in contras ...
We have performed a direct measurement of one of the most fundamental thermochemical values: the O-H bond energy in water. Using a triple-resonance laser excitation scheme, we excite the molecule through a series of vibrational overtone transitions to acce ...
