Photocatalytic and Self-Cleaning Properties of Ag-Doped TiO2

Commercially available TiO2 of anatase structure produced in the Chemical Factory Police S.A. was modified by doping Ag from AgNO3 solution via photodeposition method. The obtained amount of deposited Ag on TiO2 was in the range of 0.11 to 0.98 mass %. Deposition of Ag on TiO2 resulted in the retarding of the recombination reaction and formation of the higher amount of OH radicals on the photoc...

Charge-dependent sidedness of cytochrome P450 forms studied by quartz crystal microbalance and atomic force microscopy.

Quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) resonance measurements were used to examine the surface charge characteristics of cytochrome P450 forms and the influence of charge on the docking of redox partners like cytochrome b5. The distal surface of cytochrome P450 (CYP)101 (pI = 4.5), relative to the heme, is fairly anionic, as is the proximal surface. The latter, however, also has two cationic cluster...

Self-Cleaning Properties of TiN/CrN Nanoscale Multi-layer Deposited on Surgical 420C Stainless Steel

The present paper focuses on the investigation of self-cleaning properties based on studding of water repellency and blood repellency for TiN- and CrN single-layer and TiN/CrN nanoscale multi-layer coatings deposited via Cathodic Arc Evaporation (CAE) method on medical grade 420C stainless steel substrate. X-ray diffraction (XRD) method and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) wa...

Noise Measurement Setup for Quartz Crystal Microbalance

Quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) is a high sensitive chemical sensor which has found widespread spectrum of applications. There are several mechanisms that are related to fluctuation phenomena. Since the aim of our research is oriented to study the sensitivity and influence of different kind of noises on sensor resolution, we modified an existing method to measure the small frequency fluctuati...
