Structure-activity relationship optimization of phenylalanine P1' and P2' regions with a phenylimidazole core resulted in a series of potent FXIa inhibitors. Introducing 4-hydroxyquinolin-2-one as the P2' group enhanced FXIa affinity and metabolic stability. Incorporation of an N-methyl piperazine amide...

Controlling microbial contamination during hydrolysis of AFEX-pretreated corn stover and switchgrass: effects on hydrolysate composition, microbial response and fermentation.

BACKGROUND: Microbial conversion of lignocellulosic feedstocks into biofuels remains an attractive means to produce sustainable energy. It is essential to produce lignocellulosic hydrolysates in a consistent manner in order to study microbial performance in different feedstock hydrolysates. Because of...

Hygrothermal aging effects on buried molecular structures at epoxy interfaces.

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids

Myers JN, Zhang C, Lee KW, Williamson J, Chen Z.
PMID: 24345068
Langmuir. 2014 Jan 14;30(1):165-71. doi: 10.1021/la4037869. Epub 2013 Dec 27.

Interfacial properties such as adhesion are determined by interfacial molecular structures. Adhesive interfaces in microelectronic packages that include organic polymers such as epoxy are susceptible to delamination during accelerated stress testing. Infrared-visible sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy (SFG) and...

Indocyanine green near-infrared laser angiography predicts timing for the division of a forehead flap.

Eplasty

Christensen JM, Baumann DP, Myers JN, Buretta K, Sacks JM.
PMID: 22977676
Eplasty. 2012;12:e41. Epub 2012 Aug 31.

INTRODUCTION: Reconstruction with flaps requiring delayed division remains common, even with increasing use of free tissue transfer. Patient quality of life and function are significantly decreased during the delay period. Delay could be minimized by developing methods to reliably...

Nondestructive in situ characterization of molecular structures at the surface and buried interface of silicon-supported low-k dielectric films.

The journal of physical chemistry. B

Myers JN, Zhang X, Bielefeld J, Lin Q, Chen Z.
PMID: 25558913
J Phys Chem B. 2015 Jan 29;119(4):1736-46. doi: 10.1021/jp510205u. Epub 2015 Jan 21.

As low-k dielectric/copper interconnects continue to scale down in size, the interfaces of low-k dielectric materials will increasingly determine the structure and properties of the materials. We report an in situ nondestructive characterization method to characterize the molecular structure...

OS043. Identification and validation of novel markers for the predictionof pre-eclampsia.

Pregnancy hypertension

Myers J, Tuytten R, Thomas G, McCowan L, Dekker G, Baker P, Poston L, Kenny L, Simpson N, North R.
