Atomic Force Microscopy: A Powerful Tool for Electrical Characterization
(2017-03-23)
The fundamental principle of atomic force microscopy (AFM) is to obtain images of a surface by measuring deflections on a nanoscale probe. In its more than 25-year history, AFM has had its scope rapidly expanded to various ...
Spectroscopic Techniques for Characterization of Nanomaterials
(2017-03-23)
This chapter discusses the characterization of nanomaterials, that is, nanoparticles and nanometer(s)-thick thin films. The focus is on the application of ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, infrared (IR) absorption ...
Eucalyptus nitens: nanomechanical properties of bark and wood fibers
(SPRINGER, 2012)
In this study, Eucalyptus nitens species was nano-characterized to determine variability in nanomechanical properties within the cellular ultra-structure between the bark and wood fibers. Three factors, including site (2 ...
Bacterial adhesion to collagens: implications for biofilm formation and disease progression in the oral cavity
(2021)
Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the body and the main component of the extracellular matrix of most tissues, including dentine and periodontal tissues. Despite the well-characterized role of collagen ...
Bacterial adhesion to collagens: implications for biofilm formation and disease progression in the oral cavity
(2022)
Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the body and the main component of the extracellular matrix of most tissues, including dentine and periodontal tissues. Despite the well-characterized role of collagen ...
Antibacterial Effect of Honey-Derived Exosomes Containing Antimicrobial Peptides Against Oral Streptococci
(2021)
Purpose: Recently, our group found exosome-like extracellular vesicles (EVs) in Apis mellifera honey displaying strong antibacterial effects; however, the underlying mechanism is still not understood. Thus, the aim of this ...
X-Ray Diffraction and Scattering by Nanomaterials
(2017-03-23)
This chapter contains basic concepts and applications of wide-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) to studies of nanostructured materials. The first part includes an introduction to the ...
Study of electrostatic shielding and environmental interactions in carbon nanotubes by Resonance Raman Spectroscopy
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2010-08-30)
In the last decade, many theoretical and experimental achievements have been made in the photophysics of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). Such accomplishments allowed us to gain a deep understanding of the physics ...
Modulatory Effect of Glycated Collagen on Oral Streptococcal Nanoadhesion
(2021)
Biofilm-mediated oral diseases such as dental caries and periodontal disease remain highly prevalent in populations worldwide. Biofilm formation initiates with the attachment of primary colonizers onto surfaces, and in the ...
