Published in 2023 at "Small"

DOI: 10.1002/smll.202207593

Abstract: For highly abundant silica nanomaterials, detrimental effects on proteins and phospholipids are postulated as critical molecular initiating events that involve hydrogen-bonding, hydrophobic, and/or hydrophilic interactions. Here, large unilamellar vesicles with various well-defined phospholipid compositions are… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry"

DOI: 10.1007/s11010-019-03646-0

Abstract: We have previously demonstrated that Cationic Arginine-Rich Peptides (CARPs) and in particular poly-arginine-18 (R18; 18-mer of arginine) exhibit potent neuroprotective properties in both in vitro and in vivo neuronal injury models. Based on the current… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Chemistry and physics of lipids"

DOI: 10.1016/j.chemphyslip.2018.01.009

Abstract: Based on ricinoleic acid, two asymmetric bolaamphiphiles with unsymmetrical hydrophobic skeletons and two different hydrophilic head groups were designed and synthesized. The first bola compound had acetylcholine (ACh) and maleimide (MAL) head groups while the… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of colloid and interface science"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2017.10.066

Abstract: HYPOTHESIS Emerging applications of carbohydrate/cationic surfactant mixtures require not only synergistic mixing, but also accessible sugar headgroups at the exterior of micelles. A previous study showed that the glucoside headgroups of octyl-β-d-glucopyranoside aggregate at the… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of Power Sources"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jpowsour.2017.08.100

Abstract: Abstract To explore highly conductive and alkaline stable anion exchange membrane (AEM) materials, triblock copolymers bearing alkyl-tethered cycloaliphatic quaternary ammonium-head-groups are prepared via nucleophilic substitution, Friedel-Crafts acylation, ketone reduction and Menshutkin reaction. The designed triblock… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Tribology International"

DOI: 10.1016/j.triboint.2019.106140

Abstract: To improve lubricant formulation, a better understanding of the wettability properties and hence of the interactions between the surface and the lubricant additives is a key parameter. Herein, we use density functional theory calculations to… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Soft matter"

DOI: 10.1039/d2sm00964a

Abstract: Wormlike micelles are conventional aggregates that exist in viscoelastic solutions. However, to achieve a solution with prominent viscoelasticity, rather high concentrations of surfactants are usually required due to the flexibility of aggregates in solution. If… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Physiology"

DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2022.836789

Abstract: Membrane protein function is regulated by the lipid bilayer composition. In many cases the changes in function correlate with changes in the lipid intrinsic curvature (c0), and c0 is considered a determinant of protein function.… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Molecules"

DOI: 10.3390/molecules27092686

Abstract: Commercialization of anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) has been limited due to the chemical degradation of various quaternary ammonium (QA) head groups, which affects the transportation of hydroxide (OH−) ions in AEMs. Understanding how… read more here.
