This paper presents a comprehensive study of the self-assembly dynamics and the biosensing efficacy of Tobacco mosaic virus-like particle (TMV VLP) sensing probes using an impedimetric microsensor platform. TMV VLPs are high surface area macromolecules with nanorod structures constructed from helical arrangements of thousands of identical coat proteins. Genetically modified TMV VLPs express bot...

conventional and nanostructured ysz coatings were deposited on the in-738 ni super alloy by the atmospheric plasma spray technique. the oxidation was measured at 1100°c in an atmospheric electrical furnace. according to the experimental results the nanostructured coatings showed a better oxidation resistance than the conventional ones. the improved oxidation resistance of the nanocoating could ...

Poor adhesion between two successive bituminous layers causes adverse effects on the structural strength of the pavement and develops a numbers of premature failure. To improve the adhesion, it is a general practice to apply a tack coat over an existing or newly constructed bituminous surface before laying another bituminous layer. The main objective of this study is to explore the influence of...

Optical biosensors based on grating-coupled surface plasmon resonance (GCSPR) technology are an important research topic in the field of bio-photonics. This paper presents a high-performance and high-sensitivity nanostructured bimetallic GCSPR sensor two-dimensional materials. When designing sensor, sensitivity, full width at half peak (FWHM) dip strength absorption (DS) were considered compreh...

apple stem pitting virus (aspv) is one of the most common viruses of apple and pear trees. during 2012 to 2013, a total of 1053 symptomatic and asymptomatic leaf samples were collected from orchards in nine provinces of iran. aspv infection was detected by das-elisa and pcr in 54 samples (5.12%) from seven provinces. based on the geographical origin, 22 representative isolates were selected for...

Covalent organic frameworks (COF) have been gathering much attention because the shapes, sizes, and chemical functions of their nanostructured pores can be arbitrarily controlled by designing precursors. We fabricated cm-sized free-standing COF films with thickness 50–100 nm an alternating vacuum deposition polymerization method. Precise adjustment stoichiometry digitally was essential for prod...

Natural polymers are of great interest in the biomedical field due to their intrinsic properties such as biodegradability, biocompatibility, and non-toxicity. Layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly natural is a versatile, simple, efficient, reproducible, flexible bottom-up technique for development nanostructured materials controlled manner. The multiple morphological structural advantages LbL compared ...

In those hands I see chipped plates, plastic sofa case, dripping taps, the smell of too little tenement light, of urine rained on hapless clothes, a smell her grandson will call stale and will define everything in life he will forever run from. Her sallow hands, atrophic from not holding and not being held, like garaged brush stiffened with last year’s paint; hands that rest, as she finishes, o...

Nanostructured zinc oxide (ZnO) was successfully synthesized by precipitation method using the extract of Cylea barbata Miers (CBM) leaves as a soft template after 3 h of calcinations in furnace at 500oC in the open air. Characterization results showed that the nanostructured ZnO had hexagonal wurtzite structure with space group P63mc and nano-scale particle diameter. It was suggested that the ...

titanium dioxide is one kind of important materials, which has been extensively investigated because of its unique electronic and optical properties. a large number of efforts have been made to synthesize tio2 materials with different methods. in this review paper, we summarize the synthesis pathways, morphology, as well as crystallization of the nanostructured tio2. in addition, we also mentio...
