This project was supervised by Dr. Hugh Horton from the Department of Chemistry at Queen’s University. Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) have extensive applications in chemical resistance,…
Cell-surface engineering strategies that permit long-lived display of well-defined, functionally active molecules are highly attractive for eliciting desired cellular responses and for understanding biological processes.…
During cryopreservation, ice recrystallization is a major cause of cellular damage. Conventional cryoprotectants such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and glycerol function by a number of…
The response in elemental concentrations and Pb isotopes in various surface media from the Cigar West unconformity-type uranium deposit located at a depth of 450 m…
Existing Janus filters cannot separate oil from emulsions stabilized by non-ionic surfactants. Reported in this paper are universal Janus filters that separate oil from emulsions…
The Centennial U deposit is situated in the south-central Athabasca Basin (Canada) and straddles the unconformity between early Paleoproterozoic to Archean metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks…
Atomic-level understanding of the degradation of Pt materials is important for the rational design of nanoscopic Pt electrocatalysts for fuel cells. We report on the…
Glutathione-protected gold clusters exhibit size-dependent excited state and electron transfer properties. The long-lived excited state of these clusters and their ability to participate in electron…
Current antismudge coatings that bear nano-pools of a grafted liquid ingredient for dewetting enablement (NP-GLIDE) are cured at high temperatures, which are undesirable for application…
Banqueting and Food is a chapter in the volume Etruscology (editor, Alessandro Naso), which provides a state-of-the-art overview of the history of Etruscology and its development. Archaeological evidence and…
