Alkaloids as Photosensitisers for the Inactivation of Bacteria
Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy has emerged as a powerful approach to tackle microbial infections. Photodynamic therapy utilises a photosensitiser, light, and oxygen to generate singlet oxygen and/or reactive oxygen species in an irradiated tissue ...

Short-term effects of CO₂-induced low pH exposure on target gene expression in Platynereis dumerilii [PDF]
Objective: Increasing atmospheric CO₂ concentration are causing changes to the seawater carbonate chemistry, lowering the pH and we study potential impacts of these changes at the molecular level in a non-calcifying, marine polychaete species Platynereis

Bidentate Lewis Acids Derived from o‐Diethynylbenzene with Group 13 and 14 Functions
Starting from 1,2‐diethynylbenzene, a series of bidentate Lewis acids was prepared by means of hydrometalations, in particular hydrosilylation, hydroboration, hydroalumination and terminal metalation based on group 13 and 14 elements.

Recent advances in design of lanthanide-containing NIR-II luminescent nanoprobes
Summary: Luminescent biosensing in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm) region, which has weak tissue scattering and low autofluorescence, draws extensive attention owing to its deep tissue penetration, good spatial resolution and high ...

Polyethylene and Polypropylene Nanocomposites Based on Polymerically - Modified Clay Containing Alkylstyrene Units [PDF]
Sodium montmorillonite was modified with a new polymeric surfactant. The high molecular weight of the surfactant appears to have led to incomplete cation exchange of the clays, but did promote nanocomposite formation with polyethylene and polypropylene ...
