Open AccessExploring in vivo cholesterol-mediated interactions between activated EGF receptors in plasma membrane with single-molecule optical tracking
The first step in many cellular signaling processes occurs at various types of receptors in the plasma membrane. Membrane cholesterol can alter these signaling pathways of living cells. However, the process in...

Formation of CdSe/CdS/ZnS-Au/SiO2 dual-yolk/shell nanostructures through a Trojan-type inside-out etching strategy
In this work we report the development of a rapid and selective etching strategy to synthesize a dual-yolk/shell nanostructure consisting of semiconductor-metal hybrid nanocrystals and hollow SiO2 for the first t...

Oxygen Dependent Quenching of Phosphorescence
Oxygen dependent quenching of phosphorescence has now been in use as a method for measuring oxygen for about 10 years. As expected for a new technique, these years have seen a rapid evolution of every aspect o...
