Magnetite and maghemite multicore nanoflowers (NFs) synthesized using the modified polyol-mediated routes are to date among most effective nanoheaters in magnetic hyperthermia (MHT). Recently, magnetite NFs have also shown high photothermal (PT) performances desired second near-infrared (NIR-II) biological window, making them attractive field of nanoparticle-activated thermal therapies. However, what makes efficient heating agents both modalities still remains an open question. In this work,...
The dynamics of particles in solution or suspension is influenced by thermal fluctuations and hydrodynamic interactions. Several mesoscale methods exist to account for these solvent-induced effects such as Brownian with interactions hybrid molecular dynamics-stochastic rotation methods. Here we compare two ways coupling solutes the solvent stochastic (SRD) without explicit In first SRD scheme [SRD collisional (CC)] participate step second central force (CFC)] interact through direct forces...

Since antiquity, artists have been using egg yolk as an additive in the preparation of \textit{tempera} paints. Mixture and water is dispersing medium for pigments to start with, but once on canvas, it acts a binder plasticiser, procuring adhesive properties applied paint.

Specific effects of the sodium salts m- and p-hydroxybenzoates (m-HB p-HB) on aggregation process dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride have been investigated by isothermal titration calorimetry, electrical conductivity, (1)H NMR compared with already reported data for salt o-hydroxybenzoate (o-HB). For p-HB, it has found that aggregate is only formed spherical micelles at all p-HB concentrations. On other side, situation more complex o-HB, where two distinct states can be involved, depending...
The synthesis of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) from HAuCl4 by using EDTA as a reducing agent is investigated for the first time UV–vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS).
