Lipid bilayer-atomic force microscopy combined platform records simultaneous electrical and topological changes of the TRP channel Polycystin-2 (TRPP2)
(Public Library of Science, 2018-08)
Ion channels are transmembrane proteins that mediate ion transport across biological membranes. Ion channel function is traditionally characterized by electrical parameters acquired with techniques such as patch-clamping ...
A simple method to predict transient diffusion processes in ellipsoids
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2021-05)
This work is focused on transient diffusion processes inside semi-solid and solid agri-food products presenting ellipsoidal shape, i.e. prolate and oblate spheroids and general ellipsoid. Many typical industrial operations ...
Soy genistein administered in soluble chitosan microcapsules maintains antioxidant activity and limits intestinal inflammation
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2018-12)
We used water-soluble Chitosan obtained by Maillard reaction with glucosamine to microencapsulate soy genistein (Ge) and preserve its biological activity for oral administration. Release of Ge was pH dependent with a super ...
Corn starch-calcium alginate matrices for the simultaneous carrying of zinc and yerba mate antioxidants
(Elsevier Science, 2014-06)
A new strategy for the simultaneous carrying of zinc and yerba mate antioxidants into starch-alginate matrices was developed. Firstly, the use of native corn starch as vehicle of zinc was evaluated and then the starch-zinc ...
Ecophysiological basis of wood formation in ponderosa pine : linking water flux patterns with wood microdensity variables
(2015-06)
Climate and stands management have an effect on the process of wood formation via resource availability. To improve knowledge of wood quantity and physical structure, increment cores of ponderosa pine were taken in high- ...
Physical evidence of swelling as the cause of anomalous capillary water uptake by cementitious materials
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-06)
Water uptake by capillarity is widely used for characterising the durability properties of building materials. However, cementitious materials are generally reported with an anomalous behaviour in relation to other ...
Microscopic Electrochemical Control of Ag Nanoparticles into Mesoporous TiO 2 Thin Films
(American Chemical Society, 2019-01)
Conductive-tip atomic force microscopy (CAFM) was used to explore the effects of high electric fields on silver nanoparticle (NP) arrays embedded inside the pores of mesoporous TiO2 thin films (MTF). A controlled local ...
Tuning morphological features of lead iodide by low pressure vapor phase deposition
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2018-05)
Lead iodide (PbI2) is a semiconductor with extensive use as an active layer for X-ray detectors and as a precursor for perovskite solar cells. Here we present a low vacuum method to obtain very uniform PbI2 films with full ...
Origin of multistate resistive switching in Ti/manganite/SiO x /Si heterostructures
(American Institute of Physics, 2017-01)
We report on the growth and characterization of Ti/La1/3Ca3/2MnO3/SiO2/n-Si memristive devices.We demonstrate that using current as electrical stimulus unveils an intermediate resistance state, inaddition to the usual high ...
