Permanganate Reduction by Hydrogen Peroxide: Formation of Reactive Manganese Species and Superoxide and Enhanced Micropollutant Abatement

Urs von Gunten, Ke Xu

Permanganate (MnO4-, Mn(VII)) is widely applied at the initial stage of water treatment to, e.g., abate taste and odor compounds, Mn(II) and Fe(II). However, its selectivity limits its application for micropollutant abatement. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), whi ...

Fabrication of micrometer-sized drops as templates for particles

Mathias Steinacher

Drops are omnipresent in our daily life for example in the form of rain drops or as oil drops in a salad dressing. On a technological basis, drops can be used to conduct chemical or biological reactions. These drops often serve as templates to produce mate ...

The Role of Percent Volume Buried in the Characterization of Copper(I) Complexes for Lighting Purposes

Murat Alkan

The usefulness of percent volume buried (%V-bur) as a readily quantifiable property is investigated with regard to Cu(NN)(PP) complexes of interest for lighting purposes. Photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) and single crystal X-ray structures of ...

EEG Correlates of Difficulty Levels in Dynamical Transitions of Simulated Flying and Mapping Tasks

David Atienza Alonso, José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano, Adriana Arza Valdes, Fabio Isidoro Tiberio Dell'Agnola, Ping-Keng Jao

Decoding the subjective perception of task difficulty may help improve operator performance, i.e., automatically optimize the task difficulty level. Here, we aim to decode a compound of cognitive states that covaries with the task difficulty level. We desi ...

Discovering hierarchies among intermetallic crystal structures

Anirudh Raju Natarajan

The crystal structure of a compound plays an important role in determining its properties. Here we analyze over 4000 intermetallic compounds, and we identify a hierarchical relationship between their crystal structures. By considering each intermetallic co ...

A fish intestinal barrier model to assess the interaction with chemicals in vitro

Hannah Inka Schug

The intestinal epithelium acts as vital gate keeper between the fish and its surrounding environment. A single layer of connected epithelial cells forms a selective barrier, which, among other essential functions, is important for nutrient uptake and defen ...

Azimuthal asymmetries of back-to-back pi(+/-) - (pi(0), eta, pi(+/-)) pairs in e(+) e(-) annihilation

Olivier Schneider, Yiming Li, Mingkui Wang, Chao Wang, Tagir Aushev, Ho Ling Li, Sun Hee Kim, Ke Huang, Donghyun Kim

This work reports the first observation of azimuthal asymmetries around the thrust axis in e(+)e(-) annihilation of pairs of back-to-back charged pions in one hemisphere, and pi(0) and eta mesons in the opposite hemisphere. These results are complemented b ...

CNT and proteins for bioelectronics in personalized medicine

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Cristina Boero, Andrea Cavallini

From their discovery, CNTs have increasingly attracted interest because of their peculiar electrical, mechanical, and chemical properties. In 1991, Sumio Iijima first observed and described in detail the atomic arrangement of this new type of carbon struct ...

Electrostatic-spray ionization mass spectrometry sniffing for perfume fingerprinting

Hubert Girault, Liang Qiao, Elena Tobolkina

RATIONALE: The perfume market is growing significantly, and it is easy to find imitative fragrances of probably all types of perfume. Such imitative fragrances are usually of lower quality than the authentic ones, creating a possible threat for perfume com ...
