Dynamic Protein Adsorption-Desorption Analysis of Contact Lenses in a Three-Dimensional-Printed Eye Model
Adsorption of secreted protein on contact lenses is a dynamic and complex behavior. To understand this behavior, we used three-dimensional (3D) printing technology to create an eye model that simulated the ant...

Open AccessIdentification of a bridge-specific intramolecular exciton dissociation pathway in donor–π–acceptor alternating conjugated polymers
Intramolecular exciton dissociation is critical for high efficient mobile charge carrier generations in organic solar cells. Yet despite much attention, the effects of π bridges on exciton dissociation dynamic...

Reduction of Physical Strength and Enhancement of Anti-Protein and Anti-Lipid Adsorption Abilities of Contact Lenses by Adding 2-Methacryloyloxyethyl Phosphorylcholine
Biocompatible 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) can enhance the adsorption of water molecules and is therefore used for manufacturing contact lenses. This study investigated the mechanical strengt...

Gold nanorods decorated with graphene oxide and multi-walled carbon nanotubes for trace level voltammetric determination of ascorbic acid
An ultra-sensitive sensor is described for the voltammetric determination of ascorbic acid (AA). A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with graphene oxide (GO), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) an...

Direct detection of microRNA-126 at a femtomolar level using a glassy carbon electrode modified with chitosan, graphene sheets, and a poly(amidoamine) dendrimer composite with gold and silver nanoclusters
We describe a strategy for the determination of microRNA-126 (miRNA-126) that is based on the use of a glassy carbon electrode modified with (a) carboxy-terminated generation 3.5 poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendr...

Open AccessControlled fabrication of Sn/TiO2 nanorods for photoelectrochemical water splitting
In this work, we investigate the controlled fabrication of Sn-doped TiO2 nanorods (Sn/TiO2 NRs) for photoelectrochemical water splitting. Sn is incorporated into the rutile TiO2 nanorods with Sn/Ti molar ratios r...

Detection of the human prostate-specific antigen using an aptasensor with gold nanoparticles encapsulated by graphitized mesoporous carbon
We report on a sensitive electrochemical aptasensor for the detection of human prostate specific antigen (PSA). It is based on the signal amplification of the biotin-avidin system using a sensing platform that...
