Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

The impact of synthetic amorphous silica (E 551) on differentiated Caco-2 cells, a model for the human intestinal epithelium

Heinrich Hofmann

For several decades, food-grade synthetic amorphous silica (SAS) have been used as a technological additive to reduce caking of food powders. Human exposure is thus inevitable and safety concerns are taken seriously. The toxicity of silica in general and S ...

Functionalization of iron oxide nanoparticles with methacrylate-based monomers for preparation of nanocomposites

Heinrich Hofmann

Nanocomposites with a high and uniform loading of magnetic nanoparticles are very desirable for various applications. In this study, a simple and scalable route for preparing nanocomposites with a high and uniform loading of magnetic nanoparticles is prese ...

While it is well established that the surface of a nanoparticle plays a pivotal role for the protein corona, the vast number of proteins present in biological media render general conclusions about affinities between nanoparticle surfaces and proteins nont ...

AMER CHEMICAL SOC2018

Functional materials are crucial to meet today's societal challenges and needs, such as the transition towards low carbon energy production to reduce climate change, renewable energies and green economy, clean mobility and improved communication. In order ...

Hierarchically porous transparent silica coatings combine large specific surface area with enhanced pore accessibility for optical biosensing. This paper describes a versatile approach to fabricate optically transparent silica coatings with multiscale poro ...

Wiley-Blackwell2017

At CERN, the circulating beam current measurement is provided by two types of transformers, the DC Current Transformer (DCCT) and the Fast Beam Current Transformer (FBCT). Each transformer is built based on toroidal cores made from a magnetic material. Dep ...

Hydrothermal growth of iron oxide NPs with a uniform size distribution for magnetically induced hyperthermia: Structural, colloidal and magnetic properties

Heinrich Hofmann, Kurt Schenk, Olivier Jordan

Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution were synthesized by hydrothermally treating suspensions of iron oxide nanoparticles. Ricinoleic-acid-coated magnetic nanoparticles were co precipitated at room temperature from an aqueous so ...
