Heterogeneous Nucleation in Protein Crystallization [PDF]
Biomimetics, 2023 Protein crystallization was first discovered in the nineteenth century and has been studied for nearly 200 years. Protein crystallization technology has recently been widely used in many fields, such as drug purification and protein structure analysis ...

β‐Amyloid aggregation and heterogeneous nucleation [PDF]
Protein Science, 2019 AbstractIn this article, we consider the role of heterogeneous nucleation in β‐amyloid aggregation. Heterogeneous nucleation is more common and occurs at lower levels of supersaturation than homogeneous nucleation. The nucleation period is also the stage at which most of the polymorphism of amyloids arises, this being one of the defining features of ...

Inhibition of Heterogeneous Nucleation in Water by Hydrogel Coating [PDF]
Research, 2023 Heterogeneous nucleation plays a critical role in the phase transition of water, which can cause damage in various systems. Here, we report that heterogeneous nucleation can be inhibited by utilizing hydrogel coatings to isolate solid surfaces and water.

Heterogeneous Nucleation of Ice on Carbon Surfaces
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2014 Atmospheric aerosols can promote the heterogeneous nucleation of ice, impacting the radiative properties of clouds and Earth's climate. The experimental investigation of heterogeneous freezing of water droplets by carbonaceous particles reveals widespread ice freezing temperatures.

Technical note: Identification of two ice-nucleating regimes for dust-related cirrus clouds based on the relationship between number concentrations of ice-nucleating particles and ice crystals [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2022 Large amounts of dust aerosols are lifted to the upper troposphere every year and play a major role in cirrus formation by acting as efficient ice nuclei.

Heterogeneous nucleation of water vapor on different types of black carbon particles [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020 The heterogeneous nucleation of water vapor on insoluble particles affects cloud formation, precipitation, the hydrological cycle, and climate. Despite its importance, heterogeneous nucleation remains a poorly understood phenomenon that relies heavily on

An Overview on Atomistic Mechanisms of Heterogeneous Nucleation
Metals, 2022 Our current understanding of heterogeneous nucleation has been dominated by the classical nucleation theory (CNT) with little progress of significance being made in past 100 years.

Acoustic Crystallization and Heterogeneous Nucleation [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2001 By focusing a high intensity acoustic wave in liquid helium, we have observed the nucleation of solid helium inside the wave above a certain threshold in amplitude. The nucleation is a stochastic phenomenon. Its probability increases continuously from 0 to 1 in a narrow pressure interval around Pm + 4.7 bars (Pm is the melting pressure where liquid and

An adsorption theory of heterogeneous nucleation of water vapour on nanoparticles [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016 Heterogeneous nucleation of water vapour on insoluble nuclei is a phenomenon that can induce atmospheric water and ice cloud formation. However, modelling of the phenomenon is hampered by the fact that the predictive capability of the classical ...
