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 Drosophila immune system discriminates between different classes of infectious microbes and responds with pathogen-specific defense reactions through selective activation of the Toll and the immune deficiency (Imd) signaling pathways. The Toll pathway ...
This study presents a comparative approach to investigate the potentials of two innovative methods for the synthesis of ZnO and Al-doped ZnO. The first method is a precipitation system working in mild hydrothermal conditions (90°C) using a tubular reactor ...
Obtaining water microstructures is very difficult because of low viscosity and high surface tension. We produced stable freestanding thin films of pure water by x-ray bombardment of small liquid volumes in capillary tubes. A detailed characterization with ...
CuO powders with a high specific surface area are shown to be able to produce H2O2 in aqueous solution under simulated light irradiation. The highest rate of peroxide production was observed under mild experimental conditions using O2 and a large surface a ...
A d.c. oxygen glow discharge was used to modify medical-grade poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) to study how surface chemistry and hydrophilicity influence Pseudomonas aeruginosa adhesion. The effects of plasma exposure time on the resulting surface, including ch ...
The electropolishing of a B-doped diamond (BDD) film deposited by CVD was studied in HOAc-H2SO4 media. The electropolished surface was characterized by SEM, XPS, and electrochem. measurements. In 1 M H2SO4 no polishing of the surface occurred even after pr ...
We have measured the effect of bacteria adsorption on the resonant frequency of microcantilevers as a function of the adsorption position and vibration mode. The resonant frequencies were measured from the Brownian fluctuations of the cantilever tip. We fo ...
Ventilation systems often host bacteria and fungi that may be dangerous for the health of exposed people. Essential oils are one means among others to prevent microbial development. Used as a basis for many traditional therapies, these odorant plant extrac ...
This paper reports the photocatalytic disinfection of water contaminated by a mixture of Escherichia coli and Bacillus sp. as well as that of wastewater containing a larger microbial community. The photocatalytic reactions were carried out in a coaxial pho ...
Layered surface: Particles with a diameter smaller than 10 nm can be organised in ordered multilayers that feature regular fluctuations of the work function. While the amplitude of the modulation is determined by the properties of the polypeptide and the l ...
