DOI: 10.1016/j.jfluchem.2019.04.008
Abstract: Abstract Fluorous gels of perfluorodecalin (PFD) were prepared using chemically synthesized fluorous gelators. To enhance the fluorophilicity of gelators, fluoroalkyl chains were introduced to the alkyl chains of known gelators. The synthesized fluoroalkyl-containing anthraquinone formed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.nanolett.4c01043
Abstract: Gamma-prefoldin (γPFD), a unique chaperone found in the extremely thermophilic methanogen Methanocaldococcus jannaschii, self-assembles into filaments in vitro, which so far have been observed using transmission electron microscopy and cryo-electron microscopy. Utilizing three-dimensional stochastic optical… read more here.
