Mechanical dynamics of nanoscale interfaces in epoxy nanocomposites over a broad range of temperaturesTue Sep 19 2023
Mechanical dynamics of nanoscale interfaces in epoxy nanocomposites over a broad range of temperatures is studied with novel Nanorheology AFM, a.k.a. nanoscale dynamic mechanical analysis (nDMA) and our soft tapping mode AFM probes Multi75Al-G.
"Our nDMA results also show good agreement with those measured by other well-accepted AFM methods at the nanoscale as well as macroDMA over a broad temperature range, which might initiate a new paradigm for characterizing nanoscale dynamic mechanical responses for various structural nanocomposites."

AFM imaging performed in light tapping mode with MikroMasch HQ:NSC18/Al BS AFM probesFri Sep 15 2023
“Heparin is one of the most important naturally derived anticoagulant agents. Its medicinal role originates from the ability to bind coagulant factors and inhibit the blood-clotting cascade… However, in clinical practice, it is of vital importance to reverse its anticoagulant effect to restore the blood-clotting cascade and circumvent side effects. Inspired by protein cages that can encapsulate and protect their cargo from surroundings, we utilize three designed protein copolymers to sequester heparin into inert nanoparticles.”

Comparative analysis of frictional behavior and mechanism of molybdenum ditelluride with different structuresMon Sep 11 2023
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have layered structures with excellent tribological properties. *
Since the energy difference between hexagonal-molybdenum ditelluride (2H-MoTe2) and distorted octahedral-molybdenum ditelluride (1T’-MoTe2) is very small among the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), MoTe2 becomes one of the most promising candidates for phase engineering. *
In the article “Comparative analysis of frictional behavior and mechanism of molybdenum ditelluride with different structures” Lina Zhang, Xinfeng Tan, Jianguo Jiao, Dan Guo and Jianbin Luo report that they found that the friction force and friction coefficient (COF) of 2H-MoTe2 were an order of magnitude smaller than those of 1T’-MoTe2 by the atomic force microscope (AFM) experiments. *

Cell surface fluctuations regulate early embryonic lineage sortingSun Sep 10 2023
In development, lineage segregation is coordinated in time and space. An important example is the mammalian inner cell mass, in which the primitive endoderm (PrE, founder of the yolk sac) physically segregates from the epiblast (EPI, founder of the fetus). While the molecular requirements have been well studied, the physical mechanisms determining spatial segregation between […]

Antimicrobial Peptide Mastoparan-AF Kills Multi-Antibiotic Resistant Escherichia coli O157:H7 via Multiple Membrane Disruption Patterns and Likely by Adopting 3–11 Amphipathic Helices to Favor Membrane Interaction
The emergence of multiple antibiotic-resistant bacteria, notably, pan-resistant Gram-negative pathogens, which are equipped with an outer membrane barrier of low permeability to antibiotics, has become an important challenge in recent decades following the overuse of antibiotics in humans and animals. * In particular, the foodborne enteric pathogen Escherichia coli O157:H7 has caused severe or deadly […]

Polyethylene Glycol 20k. Does It Fluoresce?Mon Aug 21 2023
Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a polyether compound commonly used in biological research and medicine because it is biologically inert. *
This simple polymer exists in variable chain lengths (and molecular weights). As they are devoid of any contiguous π-system, PEGs are expected to lack fluorescence properties. However, recent studies suggested the occurrence of fluorescence properties in non-traditional fluorophores like PEGs. *
In the article “Polyethylene Glycol 20k. Does It Fluoresce?” Bethany F. Laatsch, Michael Brandt, Brianna Finke, Carl J. Fossum, Miles J. Wackett, Harrison R. Lowater, Alex Narkiewicz-Jodko, Christine N. Le, Thao Yang, Elizabeth M. Glogowski, Scott C. Bailey-Hartsel, Sudeep Bhattacharyya and Sanchita Hati report a comprehensive investigation of the molecular basis of the fluorescent properties of PEG 20k molecules using combined experimental and computational methods. Fluorescence measurements of PEG 20k were conducted in aqueous solutions as well as in the presence of metal ions. *

Electrical and magnetic anisotropies in van der Waals multiferroic CuCrP2S6Mon Aug 07 2023
In the field of modern information storage, the physical properties could act as the storage “medium”, such as electric polarization (dipole orientation) of ferroelectric materials, or spin polarization (magnetic vector) of magnetic materials. *
Multiferroic materials have great potential in non-volatile devices for low-power and ultra-high density information storage, owing to their unique characteristic of coexisting ferroelectric and ferromagnetic orders.
