Lateral flow immunoassay combined with color saturation for smartphone-based quantitative point-of-care detection of Klebsiella pneumoniae

Lateral flow immunoassay combined with color saturation for smartphone-based quantitative point-of-care detection of Klebsiella pneumoniae

Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most common pathogenic, multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria that triggers postoperative infections, leading to septic shock and fatality. Therefore, there is an urgent need to generate rapid and sensitive diag…

Improving the electrical conductivity and photo-conductivity of the photo-active layer P3HT:PCBM doped by Schiffbase for organic photo-sensor applications

Improving the electrical conductivity and photo-conductivity of the photo-active layer P3HT:PCBM doped by Schiffbase for organic photo-sensor applications

A Schiff-base material was synthesized and characterized by the 1H- and 13C-NMR, FTIR, Mass, and UV-visible spectroscopy. A thin layer of pure P3HT:PCBM and P3HT:PCBM:Schiffbase with two concentrations 2 mM and 4 mM are prepared using spin coating meth…

Highly ordered porous membranes for fabrication of multilayered nanostructures with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy

Highly ordered porous membranes for fabrication of multilayered nanostructures with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy

In this research, we describe the technology of fabrication of double-sided nanoporous alumina membranes with an ordered pore arrangement, adjustable pore size and smoothed surface relief, which allows maintaining the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy …

In the current investigation, the green synthesis of TiO2, ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) and TiO2-ZnO nanocomposite (NC) from the aqueous extract of Terminalia catappa (T.C) leaves and the assessment of their photocatalytic, cytotoxicity, antibacterial, and …

A facile green approach to prepare reduced Graphene Oxide

A facile green approach to prepare reduced Graphene Oxide

Herein, a simple and environment-friendly green approach has been used to prepare reduced graphene oxide (rGO) on a large scale using soya beans-drenched water. The prepared rGO has been characterized using x-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra, Field emissi…

A density-functional theory study of the interaction of rimantadine drug molecule with X-doped fullerene (X = B, Al, Ga, Si, Ge, BN, AlN, GaN, SiN, GeN)

A density-functional theory study of the interaction of rimantadine drug molecule with X-doped fullerene (X = B, Al, Ga, Si, Ge, BN, AlN, GaN, SiN, GeN)

This research investigated the interaction of rimantadine (RMT) drug molecule with fullerene C60 and heterofullerenes through density-functional theory calculations. Heterofullerene was used as a nanomaterial through the introduction of the following d…
