Although the CTAB method has eliminated some specific problems, e.g., low pH in raw fruit or high levels of polysaccharides, oligosaccharides and phenolics in raw and ripe fruits, the total time required is long and unsuitable for high throughput. Here, we successfully modified this CTAB protocol to isolate good-quality RNA from (i) fleshy fruits, especially raw and ripe mangos; (ii) the leaves of a succulent air plant; and (iii) an oligosaccharide-rich onion epidermis. This RNA proved useful for downstream transcriptomic applications, where RT-PCR followed by RACE yielded the complete open reading frame of the (mango) terpene synthase gene. We also extended the utility of this protocol to co-isolate good-quality genomic DNA from the supernatant that remained after RNA precipitation. This preparation was useful for the arbitrary primer multilocus amplification of genomic DNA as well as for single locus diversity marker amplifications of the ctDNA and mtDNA.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Council of Scientific &amp;amp; Industrial Research (CSIR) - India&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom2><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.671</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rajappan, Remya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shingade, Prashant D.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Natarajan, Ramanathan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jayaraman, Valadi K.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) prediction of liquid viscosities of pure organic compounds employing random forest regression</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Industrial &amp; Engineering Chemistry Research</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NOV</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">21</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AMER CHEMICAL SOC</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1155 16TH ST, NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20036 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">48</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9708-9712</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;A quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) approach was used to develop a predictive model for viscosities of pure organic liquids using a set of 403 compounds that belong to diverse classes of organic chemicals. A pool of 116 descriptors that encode topostructural, topochemical, electrotopological, geometrical, and quantum chemical properties of the organic compounds was used to develop QSPR models, based on the robust Random Forest (RF) regression algorithm. The performance of the algorithm, in terms of correlation coefficients and mean square errors, was determined to be good. The capability of the algorithm to build models and select the most-informative features simultaneously is very useful for several quantitative structure-activity/property relationship tasks. The eight most-dominant features selected by the RF regression algorithm primarily contained predictors that encode characteristics of atoms and groups that form hydrogen bonds, as well as factors involving molecular shape and size.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">21</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.071</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ramya, P.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chaubal, A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kulkarni, K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gupta, L.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kadoo, Narendra Y.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dhaliwal, Harcharan Singh</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chhuneja, Parveen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lagu, Meena D.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gupta, V.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">QTL mapping of 1000-kernel weight, kernel length, and kernel width in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Applied Genetics</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">composite interval mapping</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">kernel shape</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">kernel size</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">quantitative trait loci</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stable QTLs</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Triticum aestivum</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DEC</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">POLISH ACAD SCIENCES, INST PLANT GENETICS</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">STRZESZYNSKA 34, POZNAN, 60-479, POLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">51</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">421-429</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Kernel size and morphology influence the market value and milling yield of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The objective of this study was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling kernel traits in hexaploid wheat. We recorded 1000-kernel weight, kernel length, and kernel width for 185 recombinant inbred lines from the cross Rye Selection 111 x Chinese Spring grown in 2 agro-climatic regions in India for many years. Composite interval mapping (CIM) was employed for QTL detection using a linkage map with 169 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. For 1000-kernel weight, 10 QTLs were identified on wheat chromosomes 1A, 1D, 2B, 2D, 4B, 5B, and 6B, whereas 6 QTLs for kernel length were detected on 1A, 2B, 2D, 5A, 5B and 5D. Chromosomes 1D, 2B, 2D, 4B, 53 and 5D had 9 QTLs for kernel width. Chromosomal regions with QTLs detected consistently for multiple year-location combinations were identified for each trait. Pleiotropic QTLs were found on chromosomes 2B, 2D, 4B, and 5B. The identified genomic regions controlling wheat kernel size and shape can be targeted during further studies for their genetic dissection.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.482</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rebecca S.

The population was phenotyped in multiple years and/or locations for seven disease resistance traits, namely, Septoria tritici blotch (Mycosphaeralla graminicola), yellow leaf spot also known as tan spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repentis), stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici), leaf rust (Puccinia triticina), stem rust (Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici) and two species of root-lesion nematode (Pratylenchyus thornei and P. neglectus). The DH population was also scored for coleoptile colour and the presence of the seedling leaf rust resistance gene Lr24. Implementation of a multiple-QTL model identified a tightly linked cluster of foliar disease resistance QTL in chromosome 3DL. Major QTL each for resistance to Septoria tritici blotch and yellow leaf spot were contributed by the synthetic hexaploid parent CPI133872 and linked in repulsion with the coincident Lr24/Sr24 locus carried by parent Janz. This is the first report of linked QTL for Septoria tritici blotch and yellow leaf spot contributed by the same parent. Additional QTL for yellow leaf spot were detected in 5AS and 5BL. Consistent QTL for stripe rust resistance were identified in chromosomes 1BL, 4BL and 7DS, with the QTL in 7DS corresponding to the Yr18/Lr34 region. Three major QTL for P. thornei resistance (2BS, 6DS, 6DL) and two for P. neglectus resistance (2BS, 6DS) were detected. The recombinants combining resistance to Septoria tritici blotch, yellow leaf spot, rust diseases and root-lesion nematodes from parents CPI133872 and Janz constitute valuable germplasm for the transfer of multiple disease resistance into new wheat cultivars.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.193</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Morarka, Amit</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agrawal, Shailaja</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kale, Sonia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kale, Anup</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ogale, Satishchandra B.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paknikar, Kishore</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bodas, Dhananjay S.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quantum dot based immunosensor using 3D circular microchannels fabricated in PDMS</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biosensors &amp; Bioelectronics</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Capillary driven flows</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Circular microfluidics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Immunosensor</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">QDs</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FEB</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELSEVIER ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OXFORD FULFILLMENT CENTRE THE BOULEVARD, LANGFORD LANE, KIDLINGTON, OXFORD OX5 1GB, OXON, ENGLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">26</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3050-3053</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Microchannel is basic functional component of microfluidic chip and every step-forward of its construction technique has been receiving concern all over the world.

Here, the challenge has been to move to careful ab initio QM/MM (QM(ai)/MM) free-energy calculations, where obtaining converging results is very demanding and computationally expensive. This work describes such calculations, focusing on the free-energy surface for the hydrolysis of phosphate monoesters, paying special attention to the comparison between the one water (1W) and two water (2W) paths for the proton-transfer (PT) step. This issue has been explored before by energy minimization with implicit solvent models and by nonsystematic QM/MM energy minimization, as well as by nonsystematic free-energy mapping. However, no study has provided the needed reliable 2D (3D) surfaces that are necessary for reaching concrete conclusions. Here we report a systematic evaluation of the 2D (3D) free-energy maps for several relevant systems, comparing the results of QM(ai)/MM and QM(ai)/implicit solvent surfaces, and provide an advanced description of the relevant energetics. It is found that the 1W path for the hydrolysis of the methyl diphosphate (MDP) trianion is 6-9 kcal/mol higher than that the 2W path. This difference becomes slightly larger in the presence of the Mg2+ ion because this ion reduces the plc of the conjugated acid form of the phosphate oxygen that accepts the proton. Interestingly, the BLYP approach (which has been used extensively in some studies) gives a much smaller difference between the 1W and 2W activation barriers. At any rate, it is worth pointing out that the 2W transition state for the PT is not much higher that the common plateau that serves as the starting point of both the 1W and 2W PT paths. Thus, the calculated catalytic effects of proteins based on the 2W PT mechanistic model are not expected to be different from the catalytic effects predicted using the 1W PT mechanistic model, which was calibrated on the observed barrier in solution and in which the TS charge distribution was similar to the that of the plateau (as was done in all of our previous EVB studies).&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">42</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.377

The stable, monodispersed CdS0.5Se0.5 and CdSe quantum dots (QDs) of size 2 to 12 nm have been grown in a germanate glass matrix by a simple melt quench technique at moderate temperature. XRD and Raman studies show formation of hexagonal CdS0.5Se0.5 and CdSe in the glass matrix. The quantum confinement of CdS0.5Se0.5 and CdSe was studied using TEM and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The band gap of the glass nanosystem was tuned from 3.6 to 1.8 eV by controlling the CdS0.5Se0.5 quantum dot size in the glass matrix. It can be further tuned to 1.68 eV using growth of CdSe quantum dots in the glass matrix. Considering the tuneable band gap of the CdS0.5Se0.5 and CdSe quantum dot-glass nanosystem for the visible light absorption, a study of size tuneable photocatalytic activity for hydrogen generation from hydrogen sulfide splitting was performed under visible light irradiation for the first time. The utmost hydrogen evolution, i.e. 8164.53 and 7257.36 mu mol h(-1) g(-1) was obtained for the CdS0.5Se0.5 and CdSe quantum dot-glass nanosystems, respectively. The apparent quantum yield (AQY) was observed to be 26% and 21% for the CdS0.5Se0.5 and CdSe quantum dot-glass nanosystems, respectively. It is noteworthy that the present glass nanosystem as a photocatalyst was found to be very stable as compared to naked powder photocatalysts.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7.76</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Devarapalli, Rami Reddy</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kamaja, Chaitanya Krishna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shelke, Manjusha V.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quantum dot-decorated silicon nanowires as efficient photoelectrodes for photoelectrochemical hydrogen generation</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Materials Chemistry A</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SEP</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">33</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">THOMAS GRAHAM HOUSE, SCIENCE PARK, MILTON RD, CAMBRIDGE CB4 0WF, CAMBS, ENGLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13352-13358</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Quantum dot-decorated wide band gap semiconductors, such as TiO2, ZnO, SnO2, etc., which have electron mobilities of less than 200 cm(2) V-1 S-1 have been well studied as the photoelectrodes for photovoltaics and photoelectrochemical water splitting.

In the presence of iron, vitamin C shows a high bactericidal activity even in the drug resistant phenotype of M. tuberculosis. The regulatory mechanisms underlying vitamin C induced adaptations are largely unknown due to lack of functional genomics data in this field. In this study, we attempt to characterize the direct effect of vitamin C treatment on the physiology of actively growing Mycobacterium smegmatis. The study chose M. smegmatis as it is a fast-growing bacterium and a non-pathogenic model system which shares many physiological features with the pathogenic M. tuberculosis including dormancy and its regulation. The proteomic adaptation of M. smegmatis on vitamin C treatment demonstrates the important changes in cellular and metabolic process such as reversal of tricarboxylic acid cycle, decrease in ATP synthesis, decrease in iron acquisition and storage, and induction of dormancy regulators WhiB3, PhoP, and Lsr2.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4.165</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nawale, Laxman</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sarkar, Dhiman</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quantitative, automated, high content screening assay approach to anti-angiogenicdrug discovery</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">National Science Day, At CSIR-NCL</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FEB</style></date></pub-dates></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Combi Chem-Bio Resource Center, OCD, National Chemical Laboratory, Pune - 411 008</style></pub-location><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Angiogenesisenhancescancer,maculardegeneration,etc.. Currentangiogenicassays--indirect,manual,timeconsuming,laborintensive,difficulttoquantify,andexpensive. Wedevelopedanautomated,quantitative,HighContentScreeningangiogenictubeformationassaywouldbenefitdrugdiscoveryforseveraltherapeuticareas.

Advancements in surface passivation strategy and processing technique have contributed immensely to their developments in photovoltaic applications. Recently, surface passivation using halometallate ligands was shown to form a protective shell layer, which reduced the structural and energetic disorder in the QD solid. Here, we report lead sulfide (PbS) QDs coupled to an oriented two-dimensionally (2D) confined crystalline matrix by using a halometallate ligand. The QDs undergo surface reconstruction during the ligand treatment process, which leads to change in their shape, size, and axis length. We show that the 2D matrix is a combination of two distinct crystalline layers consisting of a crystalline Pb amine complex and a 2D perovskite layer. The thickness of the matrix layer is modulated further by adjusting counter cations, which results in the enhancement in charge carrier mobility, carrier recombination lifetime, and diffusion length in the QD solid. 2D passivated QDs are implemented to fabricate photovoltaic devices with high power conversion efficiency of 9.1%.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">45</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8.097</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ramesh, Remya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reddy, D.

Silicon appears to be the right choice as a carbon isostere because of the similarity in chemical properties. Silicon can be strategically introduced in a molecule to modulate its druglike properties, providing medicinal chemists with an unconventional strategy for replacing a carbon atom. Silicon can also be introduced to replace other heteroatoms and can act as a surrogate of functional groups such as olefin and amide as well. The present Perspective focuses on the opportunities that silicon incorporation offers in drug discovery, with an emphasis on case studies where introduction of silicon has created a benefit over its analog.

NAn is sensitive to pseudopolymorphic transformations that affect its dissolution and consequently, its bioavailability. NAn exhibits a polymorphic conversion to metastable monohydrate (NHa) form during high-energy milling in presence of poorly soluble solvents like water. It is hence very important to quantify polymorphic conversion from NAn to NHa, as water is a commonly used solvent during various processing like ball milling and wet granulation. This main objective of the study was to examine the feasibility of Raman, NIR and MIR spectroscopic techniques for identification and quantification of polymorphic forms of niclosamide in binary mixtures and multicomponent mixtures. Calibration models were developed and validated by vibrational spectroscopic techniques in binary mixtures of NAn and NHa and in multicomponent mixtures by chemometric techniques. These techniques were further used to identify and quantify NHa during ball milling, granulation and in presence of other polymorphic forms of niclosamide. Identification and quantification of pseudopolymorphs in binary and multicomponent mixtures with an acceptable recovery of 100.13-102.99% for Raman and 100.07-101.28% for NIR with low % RSD of 2.38-3.12 for both techniques were obtained. The % NHa determined during ball milling and granulation was similar by NIR and Raman. Raman spectroscopy however showed a greater advantage over other techniques in determining the NHa in presence of NHb due to significant difference in the spectral region of hydrates, when compared to NIR and MIR.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4.244</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pal, S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kulkarni, A.

This paper presents a quantitative comparison of four different techniques for enhancement of solid handling processes in microchannels of two different diameters. These techniques include dosing of the inert gas phase, dosing of the inert and immiscible liquid phase, and changing the wall wettability and multi-point injection, which, in principle, individually follow different mechanisms to delay clogging. An antisolvent based method for precipitation of salt was used to generate solid particles during flow. Clogging time at various flow rates from all the methods was measured and analysed. Irrespective of the method of delaying clogging, the scaling law of clogging time as a function of residence time was seen to remain unchanged. Among these methods, dosing of an inert, immiscible liquid has been identified as the most effective and robust method to delay clogging while enhancing transport of particles in segmented flow.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.306</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patil, Suneha</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kate, Prachi R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Deshpande, Jaydeep B.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kulkarni, Amol A.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quantitative understanding of nucleation and growth kinetics of silver nanowires</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chemical Engineering Journal</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Conducting inks</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">growth</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nucleation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reaction kinetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Redox-crystallization</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Silver Nanowires</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">414</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">128711</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;We have demonstrated that using polyol synthesis, it is possible to prepare high aspect ratio silver nanowires by controlling the experiments for process related issues which are usually ignored, viz. the overhead space in the batch reactor. It is found that by controlling the presence/absence of NOx gases with refluxing of nitric acid in the batch reactor with an overhead space of 80% volume, near complete conversion (-99%) of high aspect ratio NWs (-1000) can be attained. We provide a detailed understanding of other factors assisting in rapid polyol synthesis like temperature, stirring rate, Chloride ion concentration, optimal PVP weight ratios and PVP/AgNO3 ratio that can lead to high aspect ratio NWs. Besides the process parameters and reagent concentration effects, kinetic studies based on our nucleation and R-C Model evaluate the overall reaction rate constants for silver nanowires and the JMAK approach is used to theoretically validate our experimental results of the reactor headspace having strongest effect on the aspect ratios. Our study highlights the importance of various complications in the polyol synthesis, through detailed kinetic modelling and affixes values of temperature, reactor headspace, stirring rate and residence time in order to achieve reproducible synthesis of nanowires with complete conversion along with a method to separate these nanowires.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;10.652&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maneri, Asma H.

	Realizing the potential of nano-hybrid biomaterials in various applications (nanoprobes to drug delivery), special attention has been devoted towards their synthesis and development. Nonetheless, several questions pertaining to the interface chemistry between the constituent entities (biomolecules and organic/inorganic part) of these hybrids, still remain unresolved. Keeping these unsolved issues in mind, the present theoretical investigation focuses on determining the electronic/physicochemical properties and interactions within gold and silver quantum dot-capped single lipid molecules. Quantum dots of varying sizes and shapes have been chosen and then coupled with lipid molecules (1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC), 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DMPE), 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol, sodium salt (DMPG)), at the choline/glycerol, carboxylate and phosphate site. It has been identified that Au Qds interact strongly as compared to Ag clusters. In addition to the type, the shape and size of the Qd also influences their attachment with lipids. Among various sites, the phosphate site provides a considerably stronger platform for the coupling of Qds. On the other hand, attachment at the choline site leads to significantly lower interaction energies. The trend noted in interaction energies coincides with the structure-electronic property analysis (interatomic bond distances, charge transfer, PO2- stretching frequencies), which further helps in deducing the nature of interactions. The molecular dynamics simulations performed on selected Qd-lipid complexes established that the Qd interacting with lipids at the phosphate site remains fairly stable at room temperature without undergoing fragmentation into individual components. On the other hand, at the choline site, the Qd-to-lipid coupling is unstable and therefore they experience disintegration at 300 K temperature. Additionally, a unique glycerol-to-phosphate site crossover is evidenced, which reaffirms that the phosphate site is selectively preferred by Qds for binding with lipid molecules.&lt;/p&gt;

	Efficient storage of hydrogen, green fuel with the highest energy density, remains a pressing challenge. Among the several materials investigated for their potential hydrogen storage, 2D materials, like graphene, have advantages such as mechanical strength and large surface area but fail to store hydrogen reversibly. In this context, the present computational experiment demonstrates the potential of Graphene Quantum Dots (GQDs) with 24, 40 and 42 carbon atoms for their hydrogen storage capacity in quasi-molecular mode. Factors such as edge terminations, heteroatom doping, and anchoring of metal atoms are evaluated as a function of their storage capacity. The study clearly demonstrates an enhanced storage capacity of quantum dots, particularly, when a single Ti adatom is anchored on a 24 carbon atom GQD with a storage weight % of 2.24 % w/w. The storage weight % is further noted to increase as a function of the number of Ti atoms anchored on the GQD with the highest hydrogen storage weight % of 6.1 % w/w. Importantly, the adsorption of hydrogen molecule on the Ti atom is through a quasi-molecular mode and is driven by Kubas interaction. This type of interactions makes GQDs as viable storage materials at room temperature. Secondly, the work demonstrates that GQDs offer higher storage capacities of hydrogen molecules as compared to their 2D counterparts viz., graphene sheets, making them attractive candidates to be explored experimentally.&lt;/p&gt;

Despite its efficacy, poor aqueous solubility (Biopharmaceutics classification system Class II) limits its bioavailability, necessitating advanced formulation strategies. This study reports a robust and validated Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for quantifying enzalutamide in bulk and eutectic formulations. A Quality by Design framework employing a Box–Behnken design was used to optimize chromatographic parameters: 60% acetonitrile, 1&amp;nbsp;mL/min flow rate, 30°C column temperature, and 234&amp;nbsp;nm detection wavelength. The method exhibited strong linearity (2–12&amp;nbsp;µg/mL,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &amp;quot;Open Sans&amp;quot;, icomoon, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;&quot;&gt;r&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 0; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; top: -0.5em; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &amp;quot;Open Sans&amp;quot;, icomoon, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &amp;quot;Open Sans&amp;quot;, icomoon, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;=&amp;nbsp;0.9985) with a limit of detection and limit of quantification of 0.464 and 1.40&amp;nbsp;µg/mL, respectively. Validation per International Council for Harmonisation Q2 (R1/R2) confirmed accuracy, precision, robustness, and system suitability. Forced degradation studies verified its stability-indicating capability. Eutectic mixtures with succinic acid, caffeine, and ferulic acid were prepared via liquid-assisted grinding and characterized using powder x-ray diffraction, confirming crystalline eutectic formation. Recovery ranged from 96.7% to 99.8%, supporting the method's applicability in routine analysis and formulation development. Greenness evaluation using various tools confirmed the method's low environmental impact and high operational feasibility. This validated RP-HPLC method enables reliable quantification of enzalutamide, supporting the development of novel bioavailability-enhancing formulations for effective prostate cancer management.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
