Antibacterial electrospun nanofibers from triclosan/cyclodextrin inclusion complexes
(Elsevier, 2014)The electrospinning of nanofibers (NF) from cyclodextrin inclusion complexes (CD-IC) with an antibacterial agent (triclosan) was achieved without using any carrier polymeric matrix. Polymer-free triclosan/CD-IC NF were ... -
Design strategies for ratiometric chemosensors: modulation of excitation energy transfer at the energy donor site
(2009)Excitation energy transfer, when coupled to an ion-modulated ICT chromophore, creates novel opportunities in sensing. The direction of energy transfer and the point of ICT modulation can be varied as desired. In our previous ... -
Dispersion of multi-walled carbon nanotubes in an aqueous medium by water-dispersible conjugated polymer nanoparticles
(2010)Vertically aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) synthesized by the alcohol catalytic CVD (ACCVD) technique are dispersed in water with the aid of water-dispersible conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs). The ... -
Effects of perfluorination on thiophene and pyrrole oligomers
(2010)The effect of perfluorination on thiophene and pyrrole oligomers in neutral, cationic, and anionic states was investigated with density functional theory at the (TD)B3P86-30%/6-31G* level. For the title compounds fluorination ... -
Generation of InN nanocrystals in organic solution through laser ablation of high pressure chemical vapor deposition-grown InN thin film
(Springer, 2012-07-27)We report the synthesis of colloidal InN nanocrystals (InN-NCs) in organic solution through nanosecond pulsed laser ablation of high pressure chemical vapor deposition-grown InN thin film on GaN/sapphire template substrate. ... -
Green nanochemistry: metal oxide nanoparticles and porous thin films from bare metal powders
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2012)A universal, simple, robust, widely applicable and cost‐effective aqueous process is described for a controlled oxidative dissolution process of micrometer‐sized metal powders to form high‐purity aqueous dispersions of ... -
Laminin mimetic peptide nanofibers regenerate acute muscle defect
(Acta Materialia Inc, 2017)Skeletal muscle cells are terminally differentiated and require the activation of muscle progenitor (satellite) cells for their regeneration. There is a clinical need for faster and more efficient treatment methods for ... -
Liquid-phase synthesis of nanoparticles and nanostructured materials
(Elsevier, 2018)Nanoparticles less than 100nm in size have attracted significant interest over the past 20 years due to their unique properties led by quantum size effect. This chapter evaluates the synthesis methods in liquid phase ... -
Mesoporous metallic rhodium nanoparticles
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)Mesoporous noble metals are an emerging class of cutting-edge nanostructured catalysts due to their abundant exposed active sites and highly accessible surfaces. Although various noble metal (e.g. Pt, Pd and Au) structures ... -
A near IR di-styryl BODIPY-based ratiometric fluorescent chemosensor for Hg(II)
(Elsevier, 2010)A novel BODIPY-based near-IR emitting probe as a selective and sensitive fluorophore for Hg(II) is synthesized. This versatile BODIPY fluorophore is functionalized for long wavelength emission at the 3 and 5 positions via ... -
Phenylethynyl-BODIPY oligomers: bright dyes and fluorescent building blocks
(2009)Boradiazaindacene dyes were converted into phenylethynyl-BODIPY oligomers via a cycle of reactions, notably including Sonogashira couplings. As expected, as the number, n, of repeating units increases, peak absorption and ... -
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 ... -
