Silaffins in Silica Biomineralization and Biomimetic Silica Precipitation [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2015 Biomineralization processes leading to complex solid structures of inorganic material in biological systems are constantly gaining attention in biotechnology and biomedical research. An outstanding example for biomineral morphogenesis is the formation of highly elaborate, nano-patterned silica shells by diatoms.

Silica, Hybrid Silica, Hydride Silica and Non-Silica Stationary Phases for Liquid Chromatography [PDF]
Journal of Chromatographic Science, 2014 Free silanols on the surface of silica are the "villains", which are responsible for detrimental interactions of those compounds and the stationary phase (i.e., bad peak shape, low efficiency) as well as low thermal and chemical stability. For these reasons, we began this review describing new silica and hybrid silica stationary phases, which have ...
