Emergence of hidden phases of methylammonium lead-iodide (CH$_3$NH$_3$PbI$_3$) upon compression [PDF]
We perform a thorough structural search with the minima hopping method (MHM) to explore low-energy structures of methylammonium lead iodide. By combining the MHM with a forcefield, we efficiently screen vast portions of the configurational space with ...

Study of ${\rm CdI_2}$ nanocrystals dispersed in amorphous ${\rm Sb_2S_3}$ matrix
Crystalline nanoparticles of cadmium iodide where suspended in the amorphous matrix of antimony trisulphide. Both materials are layered structured and have large band-gaps however cadmium iodide exhibits polytypism, i.e.

The Iodine/Iodide/Starch Supramolecular Complex
The nature of the blue color in the iodine–starch reaction (or, in most cases, iodine–iodide-starch reaction, i.e., I2 as well as I− are typically present) has for decades elicited debate.

Oxygen-hydrogen fuel cell with an iodine-iodide cathode - A concept [PDF]
Fuel cell uses a porous cathode through which is fed a solution of iodine in aqueous iodide solution, the anode is a hydrogen electrode. No activation polarization appears on the cathode because of the high exchange-current density of the iodine-iodide ...

In vivo imaging of the tonoplast intrinsic protein family in Arabidopsis roots [PDF]
Background: Tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs) are widely used as markers for vacuolar compartments in higher plants. Ten TIP isoforms are encoded by the Arabidopsis genome.

Bisphenol A increases hydrogen peroxide generation by thyrocytes both in vivo and in vitro
Bisphenol A (BPA) is the most common monomer in polycarbonate plastics and an endocrine disruptor. Though some effects of BPA on thyroid hormone (TH) synthesis and action have been described, the impact of this compound on thyroid H2O2 generation remains

Ion clustering in aqueous salt solutions near the liquid/vapor interface [PDF]
Molecular dynamics simulations of aqueous NaCl, KCl, NaI, and KI solutions are used to study the effects of salts on the properties of the liquid/vapor interface. The simulations use the models which include both charge transfer and polarization effects.

Advances in the design and development of oncolytic measles viruses. [PDF]
A successful oncolytic virus is one that selectively propagates and destroys cancerous tissue without causing excessive damage to the normal surrounding tissue. Oncolytic measles virus (MV) is one such virus that exhibits this characteristic and thus has

Rapid, Specific Determination of Iodine and Iodide by Combined Solid-Phase Extraction/Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy [PDF]
A new, rapid methodology for trace analysis using solid-phase extraction is described. The two-step methodology is based on the concentration of an analyte onto a membrane disk and on the determination by diffuse reflectance spectroscopy of the amount of
