Abstract We developed a method for the fabrication of novel biodegradable nanoparticles (NPs) from lignin which are apparently non‐toxic microalgae and yeast. compare two alternative methods synthesis NPs result in particles very different stability upon change pH. The first is based on precipitation low‐sulfonated an ethylene glycol solution by using diluted acidic aqueous solutions, yields that stable over wide range second approach high‐pH produces only at low Our study reveals...
Mixing double-hydrophilic block copolymers containing a poly(acrylic acid) with gadolinium ions in water leads to the spontaneous formation of polymeric nanoparticles. With an average diameter near 20 nm, nanoparticles are exceptionally stable, even after dilution and over large range pH ionic strength. High magnetic relaxivities were measured vitro for these biocompatible colloids, vivo resonance imaging on rats demonstrates potential utility such assemblies.
Core–shell(s) hyperbranched polymers were used to synthesize size-controlled gadolinium phosphate nanowires. An optimum particle size with high relaxivity values was evidenced.
An innovative strategy allowing the development of a new generation easy-to-prepare and easy-to-use nano-sized catalysts with high tenability is presented. This based on formation hybrid polyion complexes (HPICs) from complexation copper block copolymer consisting an ionizable complexing neutral stabilizer block. These have well-defined structure size hydrodynamic diameter around 29 nm. They are stable in aqueous solution over pH range 4 to 8 not sensitive NaCl salt addition or dilution...

Without prior knowledge of signals or readout system, our automatically optimizes integration periods maximizing ability radiation detector. is innovative in its adaptability and automation without being complicated to implement on standard computer. Another advantage this approach possibility use it even if operation system recording process signal not fully known....

In the context of high-energy physics experiments, particle accelerators create a significant dose radiations, up to 10 6 Gy for example at Large Hadron Collider (LHC, Cern).Control detectors, such as scintillators, are affected by these high irradiation levels.The literature mentions that light yield organic scintillators dramatically drops when strongly irradiated.However, tested can recover some their output with time.To best our knowledge, only luminescent properties plastic were...
