Carbon dioxide storage in olivine basalts: Effect of ball milling process
(2015)The goal of this study is to propose a cost-effective method for the optimization of the ex situ carbonation of basaltic rocks. The ball milling process was applied to a sample of olivine basalt from the Troodos ophiolite ...

Combination of theoretical and experimental approaches for the design and study of fibril-forming peptides
(2014)Self-assembling peptides that can form supramolecular structures such as fibrils, ribbons, and nanotubes are of particular interest to modern bionanotechnology and materials science. Their ability to form biocompatible ...

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of benzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H) -one and [1,2,4]-triazino[5,6,1-jk]carbazol-6-one derivatives as dual inhibitors of beta-amyloid aggregation and acetyl/butyryl cholinesterase
(2012)Alzheimer's disease (AD) onset and progression are associated with the dysregulation of multiple and complex physiological processes and a successful therapeutic approach should therefore address more than one target. Two ...

High-molecular-weight symmetrical multiblock copolymers: Synthesis by RAFT polymerization and characterization
(2013)High-molecular-weight (MW) symmetrical multiblock copolymers, based on the hydrophobic monomers styrene (Sty) and methyl methacrylate (MMA), and the more polar monomer, 2-vinyl pyridine (2VPy), were prepared using stepwise ...

Lead halide perovskites and other metal halide complexes as inorganic capping ligands for colloidal nanocrystals
(2014)Lead halide perovskites (CH3NH3PbX3, where X = I, Br) and other metal halide complexes (MXn, where M = Pb, Cd, In, Zn, Fe, Bi, Sb) have been studied as inorganic capping ligands for colloidal nanocrystals. We present the ...

Self-assembly of an aspartate-rich sequence from the adenovirus fiber shaft: Insights from molecular dynamics simulations and experiments
(2014)The self-assembly of short peptides into fibrous nanostructures (such as fibrils and tubes) has recently become the subject of intense theoretical and experimental scrutiny, as such assemblies are promising candidates for ...

Self-assembly of phenylalanine oligopeptides: Insights from experiments and simulations
(2009)Studies of peptide-based nanostructures provide general insights into biomolecular self-assembly and can lead material engineering toward technological applications. The diphenylalanine peptide (FF) self-assembles into ...

Surprising effects of polymer-surfactant solutions on inorganic crystallization processes
(2001)Polymer-surfactant solutions, in which the surfactant molecules interact strongly with the polymer chains forming polymerbound micelles above the critical association concentration, are used as media for inorganic precipitation ...
