Metallofoldamers are oligomers that fold into three-dimensional structures in a controlled manner upon coordination with metal ions. Molecules in this class have shown an impressive ability to form single-handed helical structures and other three-dimensional architectures. Several metallofoldamers have been applied as sensors due to their selective folding when binding to a specific metal ion, while others show promise for applications as respon ...
Introduces the reader to Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs), their isolation method and analysis, and commercially available platforms Presents the historical perspective and the overview of the field of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) Discusses the state-of-art methods for CTC isolation, ranging from the macro- to micro-scale, from positive concentration to negative depletion, and from biological-property-enabled to physical-property-based approache ...
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are an important functional material because of their potential implications in diverse research fields. The materials have been developed for a range of uses including separation, environmental, biomedical and sensor applications. In this book, the chapters are clustered into two main sections: Strategies to be employed when using the affinity materials, and rational design of MIPs for advanced applications ...
"Smart Polymers" oder clevere Materialien wollen Wissenschaftler heute entwickeln, d. h. Werkstoffe, die ihre Eigenschaften selbsttatig an die wechselnden au?eren Umwelteinflussen anpassen. Tolle Erfindungen, wie Gebaude und Brucken, die sich wahrend eines Erdbebens selbsttatig verstarken und entstandene Risse umgehend wieder verschlie?en, sind in greifbare Nahe geruckt. Unseren Alltag haben beispielsweise schon folgende Polymere erobert, ohne d ...
The first book dedicated specifically to automated sample preparation and analytical measurements, this timely and systematic overview not only covers biological applications, but also environmental measuring technology, drug discovery, and quality assurance. Following a critical review of realized automation solutions in biological sciences, the book goes on to discuss special requirements for comparable systems for analytical applications, tak ...
Critical overviews from the front line of ionic liquids research Ionic Liquids Completely UnCOILed: Critical Expert Overviews concludes the discussion of new processes and developments in ionic liquid technology introduced in the previously published volumes, Ionic Liquids UnCOILed and Ionic Liquids Further UnCOILed. The goal of this volume is to provide expert overviews that range from applied to theoretical, synthetic to structural, and analyt ...
Critical overviews from the front line of ionic liquids research Ionic Liquids Further UnCOILed: Critical Expert Overviews continues the discussion of new processes and developments in ionic liquid technology introduced in the first volume. Written by an international group of key academic and industrial chemists, this next book in the series includes eleven overviews of specific areas of ionic liquid chemistry including: Physicochemical propert ...
HEINRICH ZANKL UND KATJA BETZ LADEN EIN ZU DEN PARALYMPICS DER WISSENSCHAFT! Stephen Hawking ist wohl der bekannteste Wissenschaftler mit Handicap weltweit. Doch es gibt sehr viele gro?e Denker und Forscher, die korperlich oder psychisch beeintrachtigt waren: Darwins Symptome deuten auf eine Nerven?schwache hin, bei Einstein vermuten Wissenschaftler eine Variante des Asperger-Syndroms, Freud war suchtkrank und Edison schwerhorig, Marx litt unter ...
