Synthesis of Pyridyl Disulfide-Functionalized Nanoparticles for Conjugating Thiol-Containing Small Molecules, Peptides, and Proteins

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Conlin O'Neil, Urara Hasegawa

Previously we reported emulsion polymerization of propylene sulfide with Pluronic F127 as an emulsifier, yielding nanoparticles (NPs) in the 25 nm size range. Immunologically functional NPs were prepared by adding an antigen Pluronic conjugate to the polym ...

Nanostructured Functional Particles and Surfaces

Arthur Olivier Joseph Ganz

Topographic nanostructuring of surfaces is a promising concept, in particular to improve the bio-integration of titanium orthopedic implants. In this context, a new method for the nanostructuring of anodised titanium surfaces was developed. Ordered topogra ...

Self-assembly of ZnO nanoparticles and subsequent formation of hollow microspheres

Shadi Taghavi

Nanostructure ZnO hollow microspheres with average crystallite size of about 15 nm, and average diameters of about 1 mu m, were successfully fabricated through a novel hydrothermal method. Hollow microspheres were formed due to self-assembly of ZnO oblong ...

On the lattice coherency of oxide particles dispersed in EUROFER97

Nadine Baluc, Robin Schäublin, Amuthan Ramar

Oxide dispersion strengthened steels based on the ferritic/martensitic steel EUROFER97 are developed. The reinforcing particles dispersed in the matrix of EUROFER97 are made of yttria and yttrium titanium oxides. Microstructure is investigated by transmiss ...

Particle Size Distribution Measurements of Manganese-Doped ZnS Nanoparticles

Heinrich Hofmann, Alke Fink

We performed particle size and particle size distribution measurements for L-cysteine-stabilized ZnS/Mn nanoparticles in the size region below 10 nm. For this we applied transmission electron microscopy (TEM), analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC), dynamic ...

Analysis of nano-sized irradiation-induced defects in Fe-base materials by means of small angle neutron scattering and molecular dynamics simulations

Gang Yu

Thermonuclear fusion of light atoms is considered since decades as an unlimited, safe and reliable source of energy that could eventually replace classical sources based on fossile fuel or nuclear fuel. Fusion reactor technology and materials studies are i ...

Microstructure of 5 keV gold-implanted polydimethylsiloxane

Samuel Rosset, Muhamed Niklaus

The first high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) cross-section images of flexible electrodes fabricated by gold ion implantation at 5 keV into polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) are presented. A TEM sample preparation method based on cryoultramicr ...

Gd(III)-EPTPAC16, a new self-assembling potential liver MRI contrast agent: in vitro characterization and in vivo animal imaging studies

Lothar Helm

The recently reported amphiphilic chelate,

[Gd(EPTPAC_{16})(H_2O)]^{2-}

, forms supramolecular aggregates in aqueous solution by self-assembly of the monomers with a relaxometrically determined critical micellar concentration (CMC) of 0.34 mM. The effect ...

Metal and metaloxide nanostructures on and in plant viruses

Sinan Balci

Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) is composed of 2130 identical coat protein subunits following the right-handed helix of an accompanying RNA strand to produce a 300 nm hollow cylinder with an outer diameter of 18 nm and a 4 nm wide central channel. In this work, ...

Precipitation of Nanostructured Copper Oxalate: Substructure and Growth Mechanism

Heinrich Hofmann, Paul Bowen, Jacques Lemaître, Lucica Soare

The possibility of controlling materials properties by tailoring their substructure at the nanometer scale is a current topic of great interest. To do so, a fundamental understanding of the growth mechanism is of key importance and an analytical challenge ...
