Ground-state dipolar moments of oligomeric compounds, containing electron-donor (D) and electron-acceptor (A) groups as two terminal units of the polyenic bridge (D-wire-A), can well be described by means of a one-dimensional ...

With the aim of exploring the electronic properties of new material in view of potential applications, a density functional theory study of five systems made up of reference systems thiophene and hexa-fluoro phenyl arranged ...

Protein oligomerization is a biological relevant event that may provide functional advantages to biological systems. The association of aquaporin (AQP) protomers to form hetero-oligomeric assemblies is a current challenging ...

Oxy-HbRa thermal stability was evaluated by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) at pH 5.0, 7.0, 8.0, and 9.0. DLS results show that oxy-HbRa, at pH 7.0 and 5.0, remains stable up to 56 ...

Recently, the diblock co-oligomers concept, a new design method to obtain conjugated organic compounds for varied applications in photovoltaics was proposed. These materials combines the interesting properties of extended ...
