Ionic liquids are an interesting class of materials that have recently been utilized as chemotherapeutic agents in cancer therapy. Aniline blue, a commonly used biological staining agent, was used as a counter ion to trihexyltetradecylphosphonium, a known cytotoxic cation. A facile, single step ion exchange reaction was performed to synthesize a fl...

In this study, we developed a monoclonal antibody against 2,3',4,5',6-pentabromodiphenylether (BDE-121) using a synthesized hapten, and established an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (IC-ELISA), using gold nanoparticles, to amplify the signal. The monoclonal antibody showed high specificity, with a half inhibitory concentrati...

Silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) film was etched using a CF₄/C6F12O/O₂ mixed gas plasma through an inductively coupled plasma etcher. Changes in the dielectric constant and surface chemical bonding properties were investigated using ellipsometry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Plasma diagnosis was carried out using a double Langmuir probe, ul...

Herein, we report a facile hydrothermal synthesis of MnO₂ nanoparticles anchored multi walled carbon nanotubes (MnO₂@MWCNTs) as potential anode materials for lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. The prepared MnO₂@MWCNTs were characterized by several techniques which confirmed the formation of MnO₂ nanoparticles anchored MWCNTs. The X-ray diffraction and...

The electrocaloric effect of (K1-xNax)NbO₃ single crystal is calculated based on Landau-Devonshire theory. The electrocaloric coefficient and adiabatic temperature change are calculated with the variation of temperature in rhombohedral, orthorhombic and tetragonal phase. A maximum of electrocaloric coefficient is obtained in each ferroelectric phas...

Nanofabrication of functional micro/nano-features is becoming increasingly relevant in various electronic, photonic, energy, and biological devices globally. The development of these devices with special characteristics originates from the integration of low-cost and high-quality micro/nano-features into 3D-designs. Great progress has been achieved...

One of the most severe diseases threatening the ageing population is Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recent studies found that the cellular uptake of extracellular amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides can lead to a build-up of intracellular Aβ in certain neuronal cells, which consequently lead to the onset of AD pathogenesis. It is therefore hypothesized that the ...

A small aliquot (10-14 μL) of ZnO nanoparticles dispersed in deionized water was deposited by evaporation to produce a dry residue on the working area of a screen-printed electrode. An electrochemical test solution containing K₃Fe(CN)6 and KCl was added to the electrode surface for analysis by electrochemical impendence spectroscopy (EIS). Using th...

In Situ transformed carbon fibers/Al₂O₃ ceramic matrix nanocomposites with Cao-MgO-SiO₂ sintering agent were prepared by hot-pressed sintering technology in vacuum. In the sintering process, pre-oxidized polyacrylonitrile fibers (below named as pre-oxidized PAN fibers) were used as the precursors of In Situ transformed carbon fibers. The micro/nano...
