Synthesis and structural characterization of a mimetic membrane-anchored prion protein [PDF]

, 2006
During pathogenesis of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) an abnormal form (PrPSc) of the host encoded prion protein (PrPC) accumulates in insoluble fibrils and plaques. The two forms of PrP appear to have identical covalent structures, but

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Pushing indium phosphide quantum dot emission deeper into the near infrared [PDF]

, 2018
Cadmium-free near infrared (NIR) emitting quantum dots (QDs) have significant potential for multiplexed tissue-depth imaging applications in the first optical tissue window (i.e., 650 – 900 nm).

Biomimetic Iridescent Skin: Robust Prototissues Spontaneously Assembled from Photonic Protocells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Uniform nanoparticles are induced to form arrays (photonic crystals) in the cores of biopolymer capsules, endowing these ‘protocells’ with structural color. These protocells are then assembled into large self‐standing objects, i.e., prototissues, with robust mechanical properties as well as iridescent optical properties.

Structural Characterization of Large Yellow Tea Polysaccharides and Its Inhibitory Effects on the Differentiation of 3T3-L1 Preadipocytes

Shipin gongye ke-ji
To provide a basis for the development and utilization of summer and autumn tea resources, the structural characteristics and lipid-lowering activity of polysaccharides from large-leaf yellow tea were investigated. The polysaccharides were extracted from

Smart, Bio‐Inspired Polymers and Bio‐Based Molecules Modified by Zwitterionic Motifs to Design Next‐Generation Materials for Medical Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.

Selective Deposition of Lipid Membranes on Locally Anodic-Oxidized Silicon Surface

, 2011
We demonstrate control of biomolecule adsorption on Si oxide islands formed by local anodic oxidation using atomic force microscopy. Local anodic oxidation was performed on a thin-SiO2/Si substrate covered with an octadecyltrimethoxysilane (OTMS) film ...
