Amorphous calcium phosphates: synthesis, properties and uses in biomaterials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This review paper on amorphous calcium phosphates (ACPs) provides an update on several aspects of these compounds which have led to many studies and some controversy since the 1970s, particularly because of the lack of irrefutable proof of the occurrence

Nanoporous silica-based protocells at multiple scales for designs of life and nanomedicine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Various protocell models have been constructed de novo with the bottom-up approach. Here we describe a silica-based protocell composed of a nanoporous amorphous silica core encapsulated within a lipid bilayer built by self-assembly that provides for ...

Engineering of Hybrid SiO2@{N-P-Fe} Catalysts with Double-Ligand for Efficient H2 Production from HCOOH

open access: yesEnergies
Two Fe-based hybrids, [SiO2@NP(Ph)2/FeII/PP3] and [SiO2@NP(t-Bu)2/FeII/PP3], were synthesized using the double-ligand approach by covalently grafting NP ligands onto the surface of SiO2.

Role of Lipopolysaccharide in Protecting OmpT from Autoproteolysis during In Vitro Refolding

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Outer membrane protease (OmpT) is a 33.5 kDa aspartyl protease that cleaves at dibasic sites and is thought to function as a defense mechanism for E. coli against cationic antimicrobial peptides secreted by the host immune system.
