Optimization of Biodiesel Production Using Immobilized Candida Rugosa Lipase on Magnetic Fe3O4-Silica Aerogel [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, 2019 Hydrophobic magnetic silica aerogel was used as a support to immobilize Candida rugosa lipase by adsorption method. Physical and chemical properties of the support and immobilized lipase were determined by Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope ...

Modelling chemotaxis of microswimmers: from individual to collective behavior
, 2019 We discuss recent progress in the theoretical description of chemotaxis by coupling the diffusion equation of a chemical species to equations describing the motion of sensing microorganisms. In particular, we discuss models for autochemotaxis of a single

Preparation and Surface Characterization of Chitosan-Based Coatings for PET Materials
Molecules, 2023 Poly(ethylene terephthalate)—PET—is one of the most frequently used polymers in biomedical applications. Due to chemical inertness, PET surface modification is necessary to gain specific properties, making the polymer biocompatible. The aim of this paper

Sequence Heterogeneity Accelerates Protein Search for Targets on DNA [PDF]
, 2015 The process of protein search for specific binding sites on DNA is fundamentally important since it marks the beginning of all major biological processes. We present a theoretical investigation that probes the role of DNA sequence symmetry, heterogeneity

Chemical Phenomena of Atomic Force Microscopy Scanning [PDF]
Analytical Chemistry, 2018 Atomic force microscopy is widely used for nanoscale characterization of materials by scientists worldwide. The long-held belief of ambient AFM is that the tip is generally chemically inert but can be functionalized with respect to the studied sample.

Intrinsic noise induced resonance in presence of sub-threshold signal in Brusselator
, 2011 In a system of non-linear chemical reactions called the Brusselator, we show that {\it intrinsic noise} can be regulated to drive it to exhibit resonance in the presence of a sub-threshold signal.
