We demonstrate the facile tuning of uniform Bragg reflection color from red to blue by uniaxial compression gel films containing single-crystalline loosely packed colloidal crystals. The tuned colors can be fixed photopolymerization a polymer precursor solution contained in compressed films.

Carbon-based membranes were manufactured by deposition of a polymeric precursor on asymmetric porous, ceramic substrates with tube channel geometry followed pyrolysis. As precursor, an unsaturated polyester resin prepared was used. The the carbon results first short substrate geometries (105 mm long single-channel tube), further scaling-up 19-channel (250 and 600 length) successfully performed....

developing reliable and eco-friendly processes for the synthesis of metallic nanoparticles is an essential step in the field of application of nanotechnology .using natural factories such as biological systems is a way of developing such processes. nowadays, the synthesis of silver nanoparticles is very common due to its numerous applications in different fields. the synthesis of these nanopart...

conclusions the results of this study suggest that app reduction by hdacis can apparently play an important role in the treatment of colon cancer. background amyloid precursor protein (app), which is involved in cell proliferation, is observed to be over expressed in human cancer. thus, it is crucial to investigate its role in cancer and suggest treatment strategies to alter its effects on cell...

The SALMFamides are a family of neuropeptides that act as muscle relaxants in echinoderms. Analysis of genome/transcriptome sequence data from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (Echinoidea), the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus (Holothuroidea), and the starfish Patiria miniata (Asteroidea) reveals that in each species there are two types of SALMFamide precursor: an L-type precurso...

Abstract Surface engineering is an efficient way to enhance photoabsorption, promote charge separation and boost photocatalysis. Herein, sulfur-doped holey g-C3N4 nanosheets have been prepared through a universal self-templating approach with thiocyanuric acid as the single-precursor. By subtly controlling feeding amount of precursor, synthesized exhibit excellent visible-light driven photocata...
