Light-Driven Micro/Nanomotor for Promising Biomedical Tools: Principle, Challenge, and Prospect.

Accounts of chemical research
A micro/nanomotor (MNM), as miniaturized machinery, can potentially bridge the application gap between the traditional macroscale motor and the molecular motor to manipulate materials at the cellular scale. The fascinating biomedical potential applic...

Redesigning the Materials and Catalysts Database Construction Process Using Ontologies.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Materials and catalyst informatics are emerging fields that are a result of shifts in terms of how materials and catalysts are discovered in the fields of materials science and catalysis. However, these fields are not reaching their full potential du...

PREvaIL, an integrative approach for inferring catalytic residues using sequence, structural, and network features in a machine-learning framework.

Journal of theoretical biology
Determining the catalytic residues in an enzyme is critical to our understanding the relationship between protein sequence, structure, function, and enhancing our ability to design novel enzymes and their inhibitors. Although many enzymes have been s...

Electrochemical immunosensor for the breast cancer marker CA 15-3 based on the catalytic activity of a CuS/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite towards the electrooxidation of catechol.

Mikrochimica acta
The authors report on an electrochemical immunosensor for the tumor marker carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3). It is based on the use of a composite consisting of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and copper sulfide (CuS) that was placed on a screen-print...

Amine-Functionalized Sugarcane Bagasse: A Renewable Catalyst for Efficient Continuous Flow Knoevenagel Condensation Reaction at Room Temperature.

Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)
A biomass-based catalyst with amine groups (-NH₂), viz., amine-functionalized sugarcane bagasse (SCB-NH₂), was prepared through the amination of sugarcane bagasse (SCB) in a two-step process. The physicochemical properties of the catalyst were charac...

A fuzzy logic urea dosage controller design for two-cell selective catalytic reduction systems.

ISA transactions
Diesel engines have dominated in the heavy-duty vehicular and marine power source. However, the induced air pollution is a big problem. As people's awareness of environmental protection increasing, the emission regulations of diesel-engine are becomi...

Metal-free virucidal effects induced by g-CN under visible light irradiation: Statistical analysis and parameter optimization.

Chemosphere
Waterborne viruses with a low infectious dose and a high pathogenic potential pose a serious risk for humans all over the world, calling for a cost-effective and environmentally-friendly inactivation method. Optimizing operational parameters during t...

The use of marine-derived fungi for preparation of enantiomerically pure alcohols.

Applied microbiology and biotechnology
A highly enantioselective and minimally polluting approach to optically pure chiral alcohols is developed using cheap, readily available and sustainable marine-derived fungi as catalysts. An evaluation of the synthetic potential of 13 Chinese marine ...

A facile and sensitive peptide-modulating graphene oxide nanoribbon catalytic nanoplasmon analytical platform for human chorionic gonadotropin.

International journal of nanomedicine
The nanogold reaction between HAuCl and citrate is very slow, and the catalyst graphene oxide nanoribbon (GONR) enhanced the nanoreaction greatly to produce gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) that exhibited strong surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption (...

Catalytic Properties of Amylolytic Enzymes Produced by Using Agroindustrial Residues on Solid-State Fermentation.

BioMed research international
Amylases catalyze the hydrolysis of starch, a vegetable polysaccharide abundant in nature. These enzymes can be utilized in the production of syrups, alcohol, detergent, pharmaceutical products, and animal feed formulations. The aim of this study was...
