DOI: 10.1007/s41779-020-00481-1
Abstract: The morphologies of different ZnO nanostructures (ZNSs) films (deposited on glass substrates) are investigated using simple and low-cost techniques. Two synthesis techniques, i.e., direct hydrothermal technique and a combination of pulsed-laser ablation under liquid and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2020.117143
Abstract: Injectable chitosan hydrogels exhibit excellent biological properties for application in biomedical engineering, however most of these hydrogels have limited applicability because "Swelling" can induce volume expansion of conventional hydrogels implanted in the body damages the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2016.10.143
Abstract: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), with diverse sources and acute toxicity, are categorized as priority pollutants. Previous studies have stated that the hydrophobic effect controls PAH sorption, but no study has been conducted to quantify the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jctc.2c00219
Abstract: Length-scale dependence of the hydrophobic effect is well understood for apolar spherical solutes: for small solutes (diameter, d ≲ 0.8 nm), the hydration free energy is entropically driven, while for larger solutes (d ≳ 2… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42004-018-0014-2
Abstract: Proteins in hyperthermophiles exhibit extremely high thermal stability unlike general proteins. These thermostable proteins are stabilized by weak molecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding, charge interactions and van der Waals (vdW) interactions, along with the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2213170119
Abstract: Significance Protein confinement in compartments is ubiquitous in biology. Here, we show that a protein encapsulated in the GroEL/ES chaperonin cage is strongly destabilized owing, at least in part, to a diminished hydrophobic effect. Hence,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1007767
Abstract: Many proteins have the potential to aggregate into amyloid fibrils, protein polymers associated with a wide range of human disorders such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. The thermodynamic stability of amyloid fibrils, in contrast to… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms24032003
Abstract: Interactions between nanoparticles (NPs) determine their self-organization and dynamic processes. In these systems, a quantitative description of the interparticle forces is complicated by the presence of the hydrophobic effect (HE), treatable only qualitatively, and due… read more here.
