Effects of ions on the liquid crystalline mesophase of transition-metal salt: surfactant (CnEOm)
(American Chemical Society, 2004)The transition-metal aqua complex salts [M(H2O) x]Y2 (where M is some of the first- and second-row transitionmetal ions and Y is Cl-, NO3-, and ClO4- counteranions) form liquid crystalline (LC) mesophases with oligo(ethylene ... -
Facile synthesis of cross-linked patchy fluorescent conjugated polymer nanoparticles by click reactions
(2011)Here, we report a novel method to synthesize multifunctional nanoparticles that can be used in biological studies, such as in cell imaging and as a carrier for biomolecules/drugs. The nanoparticles were prepared either via ... -
Injectable in situ forming microparticles: A novel drug delivery system
(2012)Pharmaceutical formulation research has recently been focusing on delivery systems which provide long therapeutic effects and reduced side effects, and involving simplified production stages and facilitated application ... -
Poly-cyclodextrin cryogels with aligned porous structure for removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from water
(Elsevier, 2017-08)Cyclodextrins (CDs) are sugar-based cyclic oligosaccharides, which form inclusion complexes with small guest molecules through their hydrophobic cavity. Here we successfully synthesized highly porous poly-cyclodextrin ... -
Rapid and alternative fabrication method for microfluidic paper based analytical devices
(Elsevier B.V., 2016)A major application of microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (µPADs) includes the field of point-of-care (POC) diagnostics. It is important for POC diagnostics to possess properties such as ease-of-use and low cost. ... -
Robust superhydrophilic patterning of superhydrophobic ormosil surfaces for high-throughput on-chip screening applications
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)This article describes a facile method for the preparation of two-dimensionally patterned superhydrophobic hybrid coatings with controlled wettability. Superhydrophobic coatings were deposited from nanostructured organically ... -
Theoretical analysis of substituent effects on building blocks of conducting polymers: 3, 4'-substituted bithiophenes
(American Chemical Society, 1999)Substituents are widely used to modify the properties of conducting polymers. To study substituent effects on energy levels and energy gaps systematically, CH3-, OH-, NH2-, CN-, and CCH-substituted bithiophenes were examined ...
