Biological Effects of Dispersants and Dispersed Oil in Surface and Deep Ocean Species [PDF]
, 2011 Beginning with the use of industrial-strength detergents, dispersing agents have been employed in spill response for decades. The Corexit series of agents in common use today generally consist of non-ionic and/or anionic surfactants in a solvent base ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study shows that amyloid fibrils form nematic condensates via liquid–liquid crystalline phase separation (LLCPS). With increasing pH, this transition shifts toward disordered condensates formed through liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS), in which birefringence with lack of a coherent nematic field symmetry originates from enthalpic fibril ...

Florida's Coastal and Ocean Future: An Updated Blueprint for Economic and Environmental Leadership [PDF]
, 2012 Florida's coastal and marine habitats and numerous ecological and economic resources provide invaluable assetsto the millions of people who live in Florida or visit the state each year. The coast is Florida's economic engine.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The engineered TF‐Fe@LC nanoplatform programs paraptotic death via multipath ROS amplification that disrupts redox homeostasis, provoking mitochondrial dysfunction, autophagic blockade, and ER stress. This caspase‐independent process elicits robust immunogenic cell death, combining with αPD‐L1 to activate systemic CD8+ T‐cell immunity and suppress ...

Heliyon, 2018 Chopped carbon fiber-reinforced cement composite (CFRC) has become one of the potential smart materials in recent years. The key process of preparing this kind of composite at the early stage is how to disperse carbon fibers evenly into the cement matrix

Random Structures & Algorithms, 2000 AbstractWe define a family of functions F from a domain U to a range R to be dispersing if for every set S ⊆ U of a certain size and random h ∈ F, the expected value of ∣S∣ – ∣h[S]∣ is not much larger than the expectation if h had been chosen at random from the set of all functions from U to R.We give near‐optimal upper and lower bounds on the size of ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.We present a textile‐compatible, self‐healing liquid metal ink and a dual‐mask printing technique for high‐resolution patterning. Using this approach, we demonstrate high‐performance millimeter‐wave (mmWave) electronic textiles that exhibit exceptional insensitivity to deformation.

Oil Dispersants and Human Health Effects [PDF]
, 2011 The explosion and subsequent blowout of the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) offshore drilling rig on April 20, 2010, led to the largest accidental offshore oil spill since the advent of the petroleum industry, dwarfed only by the deliberate release of crude oil ...

Synthesis of Silver Colloids: Experiment and Computational Model
, 2008 We summarize our recent results that model the formation of uniform spherical silver colloids prepared by mixing iso-ascorbic acid and silver-amine complex solutions in the absence of dispersants.
