Rapid EC50 determination of hydrophobic toxicants in continuous droplet biomicrofluidics

Micro and Nano Engineering, 2019
Droplet-based bioassays are attractive for increasing throughput while minimizing reagent consumption. However, the choice of continuous oil phase within the bioassay can substantially alter assay outcomes when hydrophobic reagents and analytes ...

Alteration and release of aliphatic compounds by the polychaete Nereis virens (Sars) experimentally fed with hydrocarbons [PDF]

, 2001
In the laboratory, marine worms were fed with a mixture of algae and several aliphatic hydrocarbons for 15 days. After ingestion by the worms, 34.9% of hydrocarbons are found in the faeces and only 3.1% accumulated in the gut.

Covalent Functionalization of 2D Semiconductors: A Roadmap to Advanced Electronic Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Review presents recent advances in the covalent functionalization strategies for two‐dimensional semiconductors and their implementation in modern technologies. Layered materials are modified through diverse molecular chemistries (e.g., thiols, diazonium salts, alkyl halides, and electron‐deficient species) to tailor their surface properties ...

Hydrophobic MFI‐Type Zeolites via Alkali‐Cation‐Induced Defect Healing: Implications for Adsorbent and Catalyst Design

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Sub‐stoichiometric amounts of Na+ or K+ enhance defect healing during Silicalite‐1 (MFI) and TS‐1 calcination by promoting Si–O–Si annealing and healing framework vacancies. The resulting defect‐free zeolites are more hydrophobic and show improved butanol/water separation and improved activity and selectivity in the epoxidation of 1‐hexene, offering a ...

Synthesis and characterization of fluorinated compounds for industrial applications [PDF]

, 2013
The presence of fluorine atoms in the structure of an organic molecule alters in an extraordinary way its physico-chemical properties and the countless applications of organo-fluorine compounds are a strong testimony of it.
