(Photo)Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction at the Defective Anatase TiO2 (101) Surface
© 2020 American Chemical Society. Excessive carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by combustion of fossil fuels are linked to global warming and rapid climate change. One promising route to lowering the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is to reduce it to useful small molecules via photoelectrocatalytic hydrogenation, which would enable solar energy ...
Enhancement of Biomimetic Enzymatic Mineralization of Gellan Gum Polysaccharide Hydrogels by Plant-Derived Gallotannins
...Published in International Journal of Molecular Sciences
Mineralization of hydrogel biomaterials with calcium phosphate (CaP) is considered advantageous for bone regeneration. Mineralization can be both induced by the enzyme alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and promoted by calcium-binding biomolecules, such as plant-derived polyphenols. In this study, ALP-loaded gellan gum (GG) hydrogels were enriched with gal...
Functional Divergence of Microtubule-Associated TPX2 Family Members in Arabidopsis thaliana
...Published in International Journal of Molecular Sciences
TPX2 (Targeting Protein for Xklp2) is an evolutionary conserved microtubule-associated protein important for microtubule nucleation and mitotic spindle assembly. The protein was described as an activator of the mitotic kinase Aurora A in humans and the Arabidopsis AURORA1 (AUR1) kinase. In contrast to animal genomes that encode only one TPX2 gene, ...

Crystalline structures of Rb2UBr6 ionic conductor determined by neutron diffraction
Published in Nukleonika
The neutron powder diffraction technique has been used for structural studies of Rb2UBr6 solid electrolyte as a function of temperature. The low-, room-, and high-temperature structures have been determined. At the temperature range of 4.2–80 K, the compound crystallizes in a monoclinic unit cell in the P21/c space group. At 80 K and 853 K, the com...
Carbon-sulfur bond strength in methanesulfinate and benzenesulfinate ligands directs decomposition of Np(v) and Pu(v) co...
Gas-phase coordination complexes of actinyl(v) cations, AnO2+, provide a basis to assess fundamental aspects of actinide chemistry. Electrospray ionization of solutions containing an actinyl cation and sulfonate anion CH3SO2- or C6H5SO2- generated complexes [(AnVO2)(CH3SO2)2]- or [(AnVO2)(C6H5SO2)2]- where An = Np or Pu. Collision induced dissociat...
