Anomalous effect of flow rate on the electrochemical behavior at a liquid|liquid interface under microfluidic conditions.

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids

Kaluza D, Adamiak W, Kalwarczyk T, Sozanski K, Opallo M, Jönsson-Niedziolka M.
PMID: 24328179
Langmuir. 2013 Dec 23;29(51):16034-9. doi: 10.1021/la403614z. Epub 2013 Dec 11.

We have investigated the oxidation of ferrocene at a flowing organic solvent|aqueous electrolyte|solid electrode junction in a microfluidic setup using cyclic voltammetry and fluorescent laser scanning confocal microscopy. At low flow rates the oxidation current decreases with increasing flow,...

Comp Clin Path. 2017;26(6):1347-1354. doi: 10.1007/s00580-017-2539-7. Epub 2017 Aug 24.

While cardiac troponins (cTnT and cTnI) have been used as blood biomarkers of myocardial injury such as myocardial infarction in both humans and animals, their high diagnostic sensitivity inevitably leads to decreased diagnostic specificity. For example, it is difficult...

Autoimmunity. 2016 Jan 20;1-6. doi: 10.3109/08916934.2015.1134508. Epub 2016 Jan 20.

Human organism is constantly exposed to harmful exogenous factors (xenobiotics) including drugs and carcinogenic compounds that can induce development of a large number of diseases. The processes of biotransformation in the organism are multidirectional and xenobiotics can be transformed...

Micrometer-sized graphitic balls produced together with single-wall carbon nanohorns.

The journal of physical chemistry. B

Fan J, Yudasaka M, Kasuya D, Azami T, Yuge R, Imai H, Kubo Y, Iijima S.
PMID: 16852307
J Phys Chem B. 2005 Jun 02;109(21):10756-9. doi: 10.1021/jp050548y.

We present in this report a new type of particles with micrometer-order sizes, which we called giant graphitic balls (GG balls). The GG balls are produced by CO2 laser ablation of graphite together with single-wall carbon nanohorns. They have...

Photocatalytic growth and plasmon resonance-assisted photoelectrochemical toppling of upright Ag nanoplates on a nanoparticulate TiO2 film.

Chemical communications (Cambridge, England)

Tanabe I, Matsubara K, Standridge SD, Kazuma E, Kelly KL, Sakai N, Tatsuma T.
PMID: 19521628
Chem Commun (Camb). 2009 Jun 28;(24):3621-3. doi: 10.1039/b904384e. Epub 2009 May 20.

Triangular and hexagonal Ag nanoplates deposited on a TiO(2) film in a mostly vertical orientation topple under visible light, resulting in a decrease of extinction at the excitation wavelength and increase at longer wavelengths.

Photoinduced reversible changes in morphology of plasmonic Ag nanorods on TiO2 and application to versatile photochromism.

Chemical communications (Cambridge, England)

Kazuma E, Tatsuma T.
PMID: 22159601
Chem Commun (Camb). 2012 Feb 07;48(12):1733-5. doi: 10.1039/c2cc16589a. Epub 2011 Dec 07.

We achieved reversible changes in length and spectrum of Ag nanorods based on plasmon-induced photoelectrochemical reactions. The changes are applied to multi-wavelength and dual-polarization photochromism in visible-infrared regions. It allows display of invisible images viewable only by infrared cameras....
