Dye‐sensitized Devices: Photovoltaic and Photoelectrolytic Applications
(2018-11)
Dye‐sensitized approach along with stability and surface robustness in titanium dioxide (TiO2) against photocorrosion and degradation has been widely studied and applied in several important applications. This chapter ...
Bioactivity of prenylated hydroxybenzoic acids from Piper garagaranum C. DC
(2022)
A bio-assay guided fractionation of Piper garagaranum C. DC. led to the isolation of two prenylated hydroxybenzoic
acids (1-2) with anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic activities. The anti-inflammatory action was determined
in ...
From Ideality to Simplicity: A Robust and Affordable Hydrogen Reference Electrode
(2020-02-01)
In electrochemistry, the concept of a reference electrode is fundamental. Introductory courses might mention the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE), its working principle, and its theoretical design; however, chances are ...
Monomeric Germanium(II) Amides Bearing β-Diketiminato Ligands: Synthesis, Structural Characterization, and Thermal Properties
(2014-09)
Germanium(II) compounds featuring β-diketiminate-type ligands are attractive for applications as nanoparticle precursors, imaging agents, and components of electronic devices. In this work, we report the synthesis of ...
Modified Laccase-Gold Nanoparticles-Tetrathiafulvalene-SPCEs Based Biosensor to Determine W(VI) in Water
(2017)
It was developed an amperometric biosensor to determine tungsten in water, based on the inhibition of
laccase enzyme, by tungsten ions using pyrocathecol as a substrate. The enzyme was immobilized with a proper
mixture ...
Rapid Determination of the ‘Legal Highs’ 4-MMC and 4-MEC by Spectroelectrochemistry: Simultaneous Cyclic Voltammetry and In Situ Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy
(2021-12-31)
The synthetic cathinones mephedrone (4-MMC) and 4-methylethcathinone (4-MEC) are
two designer drugs that represent the rise and fall effect of this drug category within the stimulants
market and are still available in ...
Bile salts and derivatives: Rigid unconventional amphiphiles as dispersants, carriers and superstructure building blocks
(2015)
Steroidal surfactants like bile salts have a rigid amphiphilic structure significantly different from the typical head–tail one. As a result, these molecules show peculiar features in their self-assembly behavior and ...
Fotorreducción de dióxido de carbono usando TiO2 sensibilizado con trímeros de Co y Cu en medio acuoso
Carbon dioxide photoreduction using TiO2 sensitized with Co and Cu trimers in aqueous media
Fotorredução de dióxido de carbono usando TiO2 sensibilizado com trímeros de Co e Cu em meio aquoso
(2021-01-31)
En la presente investigación, se evaluó el desempeño de dos fotocatalizadores de dióxido de titanio, uno sensibilizado con un trímero de cobre (Cu3(dpa)4Cl2) (dpa = 2,2 ́-dipiridilamina) y el otro con un trímero de cobalto ...
A Chronoamperometric Screen Printed Carbon Biosensor Based on Alkaline Phosphatase Inhibition for W(VI) Determination in Water, Using 2-Phospho-l-Ascorbic Acid Trisodium Salt as a Substrate
(2015)
This paper presents a chronoamperometric method to determine tungsten in water using screen-printed carbon electrodes modified with gold nanoparticles and cross linked alkaline phosphatase immobilized in the working ...
Tropical Atmospheric Corrosion of Galvanized Steel, in a light urban atmosphere in the San José Valley of Costa Rica
Corrosión atmosférica tropical de Hierro Galvanizado en una atmósfera urbana leve, en el Valle de San José de Costa Rica
(2022)
Costa Rica imports most of the metallic materials it uses. In construction, Galvanized Steel (GS) is one of the most used elements in urban areas, where atmospheric corrosion is the main problem of its environmental ...
