Ultrasensitive electrochemiluminescence detection of lengthy DNA molecules based on dual signal amplification

Implicit inclusion of atomic polarization of in modeling of partitioning between water and lipid bilayers

We propose an effective and straightforward way of including atomic polarization in simulations of the partitioning of small molecules in inhomogenous media based on classical molecular dynamics with non-polarizable force fields. The approach presented here takes advantage of the relatively ... mehr

Electrodeposition of a weak polyelectrolyte hydrogel: remarkable effects of salt on kinetics, structure and properties

The electrodeposition of weak polyelectrolyte hydrogels involves an array of subtle interactions. We report that salt dramatically affects the kinetics of chitosan electrodeposition, and the structure and properties of deposited hydrogel films. The kinetics of film growth was measured using ... mehr

Ionic-covalent entanglement hydrogels from gellan gum, carrageenan and an epoxy-amine

A ‘one pot’ preparation of interpenetrating polymer network hydrogels with double network characteristics is presented. A small addition of biopolymer dramatically increases the stiffness and strength of the epoxy-amine gels without affecting the large strain at failure value. mehr
