Bacterial cells are encased in a cell wall, which is required to maintain cell shape and to confer physical strength to the cell. The cell wall allows bacteria to cope with osmotic and environmental ...

Natural motion types found in skeletal and muscular systems of vertebrate animals inspire researchers to transfer this ability into engineered motion, which is highly desired in robotic systems.

Schematic of the experiment setup. An environmental control chamber was equipped with an automatic humidity control loop. The temperature of the substrate on which water vapor was condensed to form ...

Water is considered to be a stable and relatively inert molecule in bulk solution. We report an exceptional behavior of water: Water molecules are spontaneously oxidized to form hydrogen peroxide near ...

It is well known that clinical bleaching can be achieved with a solution of 30% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or H2O2/titanium dioxide (TiO2) combination. This study examined the hypothesis that TiO2 ...

We report on chemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (CRET) between graphene nanosheets and chemiluminescent donors. In contrast to fluorescence resonance energy transfer, CRET occurs via ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

Clin Cancer Res (2006) 12 (8): 2455–2462. Purpose: There is considerable research directed toward the identification and development of functional contrast agents for medical imaging that superimpose ...

BAECs (Cell Systems, Kirkland, Wash) were cultured in Media 199 (M199; Fischer) containing 10% fetal calf serum (Hyclone Laboratories, Logan, Utah) as previously described. 10 The purine content of ...
