Tailoring of morphology and orientation of LaNiO3 films from polymeric precursors
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2007)
The aim of this work was to prepare lanthanum nickel oxide (LaNiO3, LNO) thin films of different morphology and orientation. The precursor solutions were prepared by a chemical method from citric salts of lanthanum and ...
Deposition of Pd nanoparticles on the walls of cathodically hydrogenated TiO2 nanotube arrays via galvanic displacement: A novel route to produce exceptionally active and durable composite electrocatalysts for cost-effective hydrogen evolution
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
Noble metal-based materials are inevitable components of cathodes for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in future water electrolysis systems for clean hydrogen fuel production. However, designing active and durable ...
Effects of the air pollutant SO2 on leaves: Inhibition of sulfite oxidation in the apoplast by ascorbate and of apoplastic peroxidase by sulfite
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 1992)
After SO2 has entered leaves of spinach (Spinacia oleracea) through open stomata and been hydrated in the aqueous phase of cell walls, the sulfite formed can be oxidized to sulfate by an apoplastic peroxidase that is ...
Leaf vitamin C contents modulate plant defense transcripts and regulate genes that control development through hormone signaling
(Amer Soc Plant Biologists, Rockville, 2003)
Vitamin C deficiency in the Arabidopsis mutant vtc1 causes slow growth and late flowering. This is not attributable to changes in photosynthesis or increased oxidative stress. We have used the vtc1 mutant to provide a ...
Low ascorbic acid in the vtc-1 mutant of arabidopsis is associated with decreased growth and intracellular redistribution of the antioxidant system
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, Cary, 2001)
Ascorbic acid has numerous and diverse roles in plant metabolism. We have used the vtc-1 mutant of Arabidopsis, which is deficient in ascorbate biosynthesis, to investigate the role of ascorbate concentration in growth, ...
Pt/C doped by MoOx as the electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction and methanol oxidation
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2008)
The oxidation of methanol and reduction of oxygen were studied on MoOx-Pt/C nano-catalysts prepared by the polyole method combined by MoOx post-deposition. The catalysts were characterized by TEM and EDX. The presented ...
Preparation and characterization TiOx-Pt/C catalyst for hydrogen oxidation reaction
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2009)
The hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) was studied at the home made TiOx-Pt/C nanocatalysts in 0.5 mol dm(-3) HClO4 at 25 degrees C. Pt/C catalyst was first synthesized by modified ethylene glycol method (EG) on commercially ...
Electromechanical Switch Based on Mo6S6 Nanowires
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2008)
We investigate the structural, electronic, and transport properties of mechanically deformed Mo6S6 nanowires using a density-functional based tight binding method extended with a Green's functions formalism. We present two ...
Mechanism of Fe uptake by the leaf symplast: Is Fe inactivation in leaf a cause of Fe deficiency chlorosis?
(Springer, Dordrecht, 1999)
The mechanism of iron (Fe) uptake from the leaf apoplast into leaf mesophyll cells was studied to evaluate the putative Fe inactivation as a possible cause of Fe deficiency chlorosis. For this purpose, sunflower (Helianthus ...
Study of self-assembly of the lignin model compound on cellulose model substrate
(Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, Weinheim, 2003)
Full Paper: Herein we report a topographical study of the supramolecular organization of enzymatically polymerized lignin model compound - dehydrogenative polymer (DHP) of coniferyl alcohol - on cellulose substrate, using ...
