Traditional methods of viral detection are based on the isolation and culture of viral pathogens, but often viruses cannot be cultivated under laboratory conditions,...

Understanding the energetics and structure of aromatic molecules (those containing benzene rings) is important to a large area of chemical science including protein and DNA...

CeIr3Si2 exhibits highly anisotropic bulk properties with two magnetic transitions at TN1 ~ 3.9 K and TN2 ~ 3.1 K. The overall CEF splitting of the J=5/2 ground multiplet of...

Chiral gemini surfactants containing stereogenic centers and two amphiphilic moieties, not only maintain the chiral properties, but also exhibit stronger aggregation properties,...

Antimicrobial peptides are being investigated as an alternative to antibiotics, as bacteria seem less able to acquire resistance to them. We have been investigating the way in...

A number of polymers that are commonly soluble in water and in alcohol, display a dramatic collapse when 10 molar % of alcohol is added to the polymer/water system. Various...

Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is an anionic surfactant, extensively employed in cosmetics and personal care, as well as in pharmaceuticals and food products. Surfactants are...

Polyoxometallates (POM) are well defined transition metal clusters with a range of interesting catalytic, magnetic and optical properties. To make efficient use of these...
