This investigation addresses the need in biocompatible biosurfactants for electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of biomaterials. It is motivated by unique multifunctional properties bile acid salts. Sodium cholate CHOLNa a primary salt, which can solubilize and disperse different functional The EPD mechanism pure involves electrophoresis (EP) CHOL− micelles, their discharge gelation cholic (CHOLH) t...

Recent advances in graphene research have enabled the utilization of its nanocomposites for numerous energy-based and environmental applications. Recently, advancement graphene-based polymer has received much attention with special emphasis on synthesis application. Graphene-based show astonishing electrical, mechanical, chemical, thermal characteristics. Graphene (GNCs) are synthesized using a...

Template-based sol electrophoretic deposition has been demonstrated as an attractive method for the synthesis of oxide nanorod arrays, including simple and complex oxides in the forms of amorphous, polycrystalline, and single crystal. This paper systematically studied a number of processing parameters to control nanorod growth by sol electrophoretic deposition. The influences of particle and te...

In this work In2S3 and CdS nanoparticles were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method and then annealed at 500 °C for 2 h in an Ar gas until CdIn2S4(CdIS)-CdS nanocomposites were formed. Afterwards, efficiency of the as-synthesized CdIS-CdS nanocomposite in quantum dot-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) was evaluated. For this purpose, the as-prepared CdIS-CdS nanocomposites were deposited on TiO...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES To better define the clinical-pathologic spectrum and prognosis of monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease (MIDD), this study reports the largest series. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS Characteristics of 64 MIDD patients who were seen at Mayo Clinic are provided. RESULTS Of 64 patients with MIDD, 51 had light chain deposition disease, 7 had heav...

Renal monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease (MIDD) is a rare defined by of light chains and/or heavy on basement membranes and vascular walls the kidney. We describe case 71-year-old woman with kidney failure secondary to lambda in association plasma cell dyscrasia. Her initial serum protein electrophoresis did not demonstrate protein, classic cast nephropathy was absent renal biopsy. Ho...

In this paper, kinetics of DC electrophoretic deposition EPD of carbon nanotubes CNTs is investigated. Carbon nanotubes suspended in pure ethanol with addition of magnesium nitrate was used as deposition media. The effect of main EPD parameters such as deposition time, applied voltage and the CNT concentration on deposit yield was investigated. The variation of current density vs. time and the ...
