DOI: 10.1002/aenm.201701928
Abstract: The stability of a perovskite solar cell (PSC) is enhanced significantly by applying a customized thin-film encapsulation (TFE). The TFE is composed of a multilayer stack of organic/inorganic layers deposited by initiated chemical vapor deposition… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2016.11.2229
Abstract: The lipid composition of biological membranes modulates the acti vity of integral membrane proteins (Cantor, 1998; Andersen & Koeppe, 2007). This is particularly important for mechanosensiti v channels, regardless of their gating paradigm. Here we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2017.06.026
Abstract: Alpha-2-macroglobulin (α2M), a pan-proteinase inhibitor, inhibits a variety of endogenous and exogenous proteinases and constitutes an important part of body's innate defense system. In the present study, we explored how trifluoroethanol (TFE) may modulate the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jpe/rtaa069
Abstract: Anthropogenic climate change is predicted to increase mean temperatures and rainfall seasonality. How tropical rainforest species will respond to this climate change remains uncertain. Here, we analysed the effects of a 4-year experimental throughfall exclusion… read more here.
