Immobilization of RGD peptides onto decellularized valve scaffolds to promote cell adhesion
Porcine aortic valves were decellularized with trypsinase/EDTA and Triton-100. With the help of a coupling reagent Sulfo-LC-SPDP, the biological valve scaffolds were immobilized with one of RGD (arginine-glyci...

Application of ionic liquid to a high-performance calcium-resistant additive for filtration control of bentonite/water-based drilling fluids
Bentonite/water-based drilling fluids (BT-WDFs) suffer serious fluid loss particularly at high temperatures, pressure levels, and divalent cation concentrations. The ionic liquid 1-vinyl-3-ethylimidazolium bro...

The substitution effect of tantalum on the visible-light-driven water reduction activity of SrNbO2N photocatalyst
A series of SrNb1-xTaxO2N (x=0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) was synthesized by partially substituting Nb with Ta in order to modulate the electronic structure and photocatalytic water splitting performance of SrNbO2N. Th...
