Impedimetric Detection of DNA Hybridization: Towards Near-Patient DNA Diagnostics
Immobilization strategies for the attachment of nucleotide probes to both microarrays and microfabricated interdigitated electrodes differ to... -
Immobilization of DNA on Microarrays
Microarrays are new analytical devices that allow the parallel and simultaneous detection of thousands of target compounds. Microarrays, also... -
Immobilization of Nucleic Acids Using Biotin-Strept(avidin) Systems
There are several advantages for using biotin-streptavidin/avidin (strept(avi-din)) systems to immobilize nucleic acids and other molecules. These... -
Immobilization of Oligonucleotides for Biochemical Sensing by Self-Assembled Monolayers: Thiol-Organic Bonding on Gold and Silanization on Silica Surfaces
The covalent immobilization of biomolecules on surfaces is of great interest for many medical and bioanalytical applications. Currently, there is... -
Analytical Ultracentrifuge for the Characterization of Detergent in Solution
We have characterized the hydrodynamic behaviour in H 2 O and D2O of two detergents, dodecyl-β-D-maltoside... -
Analytical Ultracentrifugation Studies of the Influenza M2 Homotetramerization Equilibrium in Detergent Solutions
Though much progress has been made in the field of membrane protein folding, there is still much to learn about the association of transmembrane... -
Self-Association of Phosphorylase Kinase under Molecular Crowding Conditions
Self-association of phosphorylase kinase (PhK) has been studied using analytical ultracentrifugation and dynamic light scattering under the... -
Molecular Properties and Electrostatic Interactions of Linear Poly(allylamine hydrochloride) Chains
The efficiency of two azoinitiators in the polymerization of allylamine salts in water and organic solvents was studied comparatively.... -
Oligomerization of Hydroperoxide Lyase, a Novel P450 Enzyme in Plants
The oligomeric state of fatty acid hydroperoxide lyase (HPL), of molar mass ∼55 kDa is uncertain and it has been reported as a trimer or tetramer... -
Aggregation of Dibutyl Phthalate Molecules in Decalin Solutions Evidenced by Hydrodynamic and Optical Measurements
Hydrodynamic and optical investigations were performed on the binary dibutyl phthalate (DBP)-decalin liquid mixtures with the DBP content varying... -
Ab initio and Constrained Modeling of Phosphorylase
The joint use of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and hydrodynamic data permits biologically useful reconstructions of protein structures to be... -
Monolithic Silicon Light Sources
Monolithic silicon light sources (LEDs and lasers) could have a significant impact when integrated on silicon chips. After a general introduction to... -
Monolithic Silicon Microphotonics
The technology evolution of optical interconnection is driven by the distance × product required for a given link. As such optical fiber deployment... -

Real-Space Renormalization and Energy-Level Statistics at the Quantum Hall Transition
We review recent applications of the real-space renormalization group (RG) approach to the integer quantum Hall (QH) transition. The RG approach,... -
Evidence for a Metal-Insulator Transition in Overdoped Cuprates: New Raman Results
Transport properties play a major role in the characterization of correlated metals such as the cuprates. The usual dc and optical conductivity... -
From Digital to Analogue Magnetoelectronics: Theory of Transport in Non-collinear Magnetic Nanostructures
Magnetoelectronics is mainly digital, i.e. governed by up and down magnetizations. In contrast, analogue magnetoelectronics makes use of phenomena... -
Models for Food Webs
Food webs are complex systems of many interacting biological species. After summarizing some of their properties, this contribution presents... -
Modeling of Metals and Metal Sponges via Embedded Particle Computer Simulation
In this article we review the embedded atom method when adapted to study solid friction and the mechanical behavior of model metals. The method... -
Scale Invariance and Dynamic Phase Transitions in Diffusion-Limited Reactions
Many systems that can be described in terms of diffusion-limited `chemical' reactions display non-equilibrium continuous transitions separating...
