Optical tissue transparency permits scalable cellular and molecular investigation of complex
tissues in 3D. Adult human organs are particularly challenging to render transparent …

This work reviews recent developments on Li-ion microbatteries. After a short literature
overview, use of TiO2 as an alternative anode for Li-ion batteries and enhanced …

Q-Naturale® is a natural food-grade surfactant isolated from the bark of the Quillaja
saponaria Molina tree. The major surface active components of Q-Naturale® are believed to …

Gold nanostars are one of the most fascinating anisotropic nanoparticles. The morphology of
a nanostar can be controlled by changing various synthetic parameters; however, the …

As green solvents, ionic liquids (ILs) can be substitutes for traditional organic solvents, and
form useful microemulsions with water. Microemulsions consisting of the IL, 1-butyl-3 …

Critical micelle concentrations (cmc) of cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) and
cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) surfactants in aqueous solution have been determined by …

We study the influence of different surfactants on NaCl crystallization during evaporation of
aqueous salt solutions. We found that at concentrations of sodium chloride close to …

Microfluidics is a promising system for efficiently optimizing the experimental conditions for
preparing nanomedicines, such as self-assembled nanoparticles. Poly (lactic-co-glycolic …

Surfactants are used in a vast array of products including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and
household formulations. From an industrial perspective, non-ionic surfactants are ideal for …

The electrochemistry of oxidizable and reducible substances solubilized in association
colloids is reviewed. The systems considered are aqueous micelles and both oil and water …
