Potential broad spectrum inhibitors of the coronavirus 3CLpro: A virtual screening and structure-based drug design study
(MDPI, 2015)
Human coronaviruses represent a significant disease burden; however, there is currently no antiviral strategy to combat infection. The outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2003 and Middle East respiratory ...
Electrochemical aptasensor for endocrine disrupting 17β-estradiol based on a poly(3,4-ethylenedioxylthiopene)-gold nanocomposite platform
(MDPI, 2010)
A simple and highly sensitive electrochemical DNA aptasensor with high affinity for endocrine disrupting 17β-estradiol, was developed. Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxylthiophene) (PEDOT) doped with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was ...
A calibration report for wireless sensor-based weatherboards
(MDPI, 2015)
Sub-Saharan Africa contains the highest number of people affected by droughts. Although this can easily be mitigated through the provision of timely, reliable and relevant weather forecasts, the sparse network of weather ...
Electrochemical immunosensor based on polythionine/gold nanoparticles for the determination of Aflatoxin B1
(MDPI, 2008)
An aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) electrochemical immunosensor was developed by the
immobilisation of aflatoxin B1-bovine serum albumin (AFB1-BSA) conjugate on a
polythionine (PTH)/gold nanoparticles (AuNP)-modified glassy carbon ...
Service-aware clustering: an energy-efficient model for the internet-of-things
(MDPI, 2016)
Current generation wireless sensor routing algorithms and protocols have been designed
based on a myopic routing approach, where the motes are assumed to have the same sensing and
communication capabilities. Myopic routing ...
Metaviromics of namib desert salt pans: a novel lineage of haloarchaeal salterproviruses and a rich source of ssDNA viruses
(MDPI, 2016)
Viral communities of two different salt pans located in the Namib Desert, Hosabes and Eisfeld, were investigated using a combination of multiple displacement amplification of metaviromic DNA and deep sequencing, and provided ...
Salicylaldiminato chromium complex supported on chemically modified silica as highly active catalysts for the oxidation of cyclohexene
(Elsevier, 2013)
Immobilization of chromium complexes on modified silica support was achieved via two different synthetic routes using 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTS) as a linking group. The FTIR spectra, elemental and solid-state NMR ...
Synthesis of an ordered mesoporous carbon with graphitic characteristics and its application for dye adsorption
(Springer, 2013)
An ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) was prepared by a chemical vapor deposition technique using liquid petroleum gas (LPG) as the carbon source. During synthesis, LPG was effectively adsorbed in the ordered mesopores of ...
Imino-phospine palladium (II) and platinum (II) complexes: Synthesis, molecular structures and evaluation as antitumor agents
(Elsevier, 2013)
The imino-phosphine ligands L1 and L2 were prepared via condensation reaction of 2-(diphenylphosphino)
benzaldehyde with substituted anilines and obtained in very good yields. An equimolar reaction of L1 and L2
with ...
Oxidation of benzoin catalyzed by oxovanadium (IV) schiff base complexes
(Chemistry Central, 2013)
BACKGROUND: The oxidative transformation of benzoin to benzil has been accomplished by the use of a wide
variety of reagents or catalysts and different reaction procedures. The conventional oxidizing agents yielded ...
