The mechanisms of electrostatically driven adsorption of proteins on charged surfaces are studied with a new theoretical framework. The acid-base behavior, charge distribution, and electrostatic contributions to the ...

We study the dipolar spin-ice model at fixed density of single excitations, rho, using a Monte Carlo algorithm where processes of creation and annihilation of such excitations are banned. In the limit of rho going to zero, ...

Self-assembled nanostructures of peptide amphiphiles (PAs) with molecular structures C16K2 and C16K3 (where C indicates the number of carbon atoms in the alkyl chain and K is the lysine in the head group) were studied by ...

This study evaluated the use of Moringa oleifera (MO) seed as a natural coagulant for the removal of turbidity and apparent color in the water treatment with low initial turbidity through the in-line filtration technique. ...

This work reports the fabrication of redox-active films of oligomeric and molecular viologens and mesoporous silica via the infiltration method. Pore-ellipsometry and UV-vis confirm that low-molecular-weight poly(viologens) ...

The laser flash photolysis studies of (4-(1-pyrenyl)butyl)trimethylammonium bromide (PBTMA) and 1-pyrene sulfonic acid (PSA) were carried out in BHDC and AOT reverse micellar solutions in benzene. At low laser intensities ...

The aim of this study was to verify the influence of the apparent molecular size of aquatic humic substances on the effectiveness of coagulation with ferric chloride. Coagulation-filtration tests using jar test and bench-scale ...

In this work, the weak polyelectrolyte (PE) adsorption on a strong cationic surface is studied with constant pH Monte Carlo simulations using a coarse-grained model. When a large number of PE chains is added to the system, ...
