Top-down enrichment of oil field microbiomes to limit souring and control oil composition during extraction operations
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2022-12)
Microbial processes sour oil, corrode equipment, and degrade hydrocarbons at an annual global cost to the oil and gas industry of nearly $2 billion. However, top-down control of these microbial processes can reduce their ...
Photochemical C(sp2)−H Pyridination via Arene–Pyridinium Electron Donor–Acceptor Complexes
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2022-11-14)
This report describes the development of a photochemical method for C(sp2)−H pyridination that leverages the photoexcitation of electron donor–acceptor (EDA) complexes. Experimental and DFT studies show that black light ...
Manning condensation in ion exchange membranes: A review on ion partitioning and diffusion models
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2022-11-01)
The rational design of ion exchange membranes (IEMs) is becoming more pertinent as their usage becomes broader and as their staple applications (i.e., electrodialysis, flow batteries, and fuel cells) improve in commercial ...
Identification of regulatory variants of carboxylesterase 1 (CES1): A proof-of-concept study for the application of the Allele-Specific Protein Expression (ASPE) assay in identifying cis-acting regulatory genetic polymorphisms
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-01)
It is challenging to study regulatory genetic variants as gene expression is affected by both genetic polymorphisms and non-genetic regulators. The mRNA allele-specific expression (ASE) assay has been increasingly used for ...
Sustainable decision making for chemical process systems via dimensionality reduction of many objective problems
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2023-02)
Recent global events and the rise of sustainable investing have made clear that the chemical and energy industry must consider sustainability goals beyond profit maximization to remain competitive. Multiobjective optimization ...
A Bidentate Ligand Featuring Ditopic Lewis Acids in the Second Sphere for Selective Substrate Capture and Activation
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-03-20)
We present a ligand platform featuring appended ditopic Lewis acids to facilitate capture/activation of diatomic substrates. We show that incorporation of two 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (9-BBN) units on a single carbon ...
Engineering the Flow of Energy and Charge Carriers in Hybrid Plasmonic Systems and Catalysts
(2022)
The emission of greenhouse gases due to the combustion of fossil fuels (i.e., coal, oil, and natural gas) is unanimously recognized as the primary driver of climate change. One attractive option for shifting away from a ...
Revolutionizing Energetic Materials Discovery and Design: The Role of Data Science and Machine Learning
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-03)
Super-Strong Hydrogel Composites Reinforced with PBO Nanofibers for Cartilage Replacement
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Imperial College Press, 2023-02)
Cartilage replacement materials exhibiting a set of demanding properties such as high water content, high mechanical stiffness, low friction, and excellent biocompatibility are quite difficult to achieve. Here, ...
Engineering Multifunctional Nanoparticles: Applied Nanoscale Therapeutics
(2022)
Decades of research towards the development of nanomedicines have, to date, yielded minimal
clinical impact. Focused particularly on the treatment of cancer, the relatively low
number of pursued technologies to reach the ...
