Designing Thermal Modulators for Portable GC x GC Systems.
(2015)
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have the advantage of scale and can be manufactured in bulk. One of the active areas of MEMS research is the development of micro-scale comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography ...
A NMR Investigation of Structure and Allostery in the Hsp70 Chaperone System.
(2010)
The Hsp70 Chaperone system is a complex molecular machine composed of proteins. It is responsible for assisting in protein folding/refolding/processing and transport. Hsp70 proteins have been historically associated with ...
Structural Characterization and Impedance Spectroscopy of Substituted, Fused-Ring Organic Semiconductors.
(2011)
Organic materials present a number of advantages over silicon that make them ideal candidates for modest performance devices like active matrix backplanes and RFID tags. The work detailed here describes both structural ...
Plasma Discharges in Gas Bubbles in Liquid Water: Breakdown Mechanisms and Resultant Chemistry.
(2015)
The use of atmospheric pressure plasmas in gases and liquids for purification of liquids has been investigated by numerous researchers, and is highly attractive due to their strong potential as a disinfectant and sterilizer. ...
Mapping, Tracking and Modeling the Movements of Single Membrane-Bound Transcription Activator Proteins in Live Vibrio cholerae.
(2014)
Cholera has been known since ancient times, yet there is still no cure. Vibrio cholerae bacteria cause cholera by producing cholera toxin. Cholera toxin production is regulated by the protein ToxT, which itself is regulated ...
Understanding the Optical and Photophysical Properties of Organic and Hybrid Macromolecules and Polymers for Solar Cell Application
(2021)
Organic solar cell materials represent a better sustainable alternative relative to inorganic materials in terms of lower cost, ease of large-scale processing, better absorptivity, ease of tunability, and unique flexibility ...
