This thesis is a study on the molecular structure of the interface of nanometer-sized oil droplets dispersed in water, a system known as oil-in-water nanoemulsion. The motivation for this research is the large significance of the interfacial nanostructures ...
Secondary transporters exist as monomers, dimers or higher state oligomers. The significance of the oligomeric state is only partially understood. Here, the significance of the trimeric state of the L-carnitine/gamma-butyrobetaine antiporter CaiT of Escher ...
In this Article, we studied the surface immobilization of five organic-acid-modified atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiators based on salicylic acid, catechol, phthalic acid, and m- and p-benzoic add on alumina, and we also investigated the ...
This study reports visible light sensitive ZrNO and ZrNO-Ag polyester samples prepared by sputtering in an Ar/N-2/O-2 atmosphere leading to Escherichia coil bacterial inactivation. The bacterial inactivation by ZrNO avoids the increasing environmental conc ...
In the present work, we study the effects that aggregation of humic acids in seawater, and its adsorption to surfaces, can have on the determination of Cu and Pb accumulation by phytoplankton within the context of metal bioavailability studies, using the d ...
The chemical-mechanical polishing process (CMP) is an essential part of the production of integrated circuits. Metal to be polished in the CMP reacts with the oxidants from the aqueous suspension (slurry) and the passive film is formed on the metal surface ...
Alcohols, phenols and carboxylic acids are silylated with very good yields in the presence of silyl methallylsulfinates under non- basic conditions and with the formation of volatile co-products. ...
