Development of Microfluidic Devices Incorporating Electrochemical Detection
(University of Kansas, 2014-05-31)Neurological disorders affect millions of people worldwide every day. These disorders range from issues affecting mental health, like depression to degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. The ... -
Photoacoustic contrast imaging of biological tissues with nanodiamonds fabricated for high near-infrared absorbance
(Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2013-02)Radiation-damaged nanodiamonds (DNDs) are potentially ideal optical contrast agents for photoacoustic (PA) imaging in biological tissues due to their low toxicity and high optical absorbance. PA imaging contrast agents ... -
The renaissance of hybrid solar cells: progresses, challenges, and perspectives
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013-06-12)Solution-processed hybrid solar cells, a blend of conjugated polymers and semiconducting nanocrystals, are a promising candidate for next-generation energy-conversion devices. The renaissance of this field in recent years ... -
Identification and Modeling of Parameters that Influence Microdialysis Sampling in vitro and in vivo
(The University of Kansas, 1995-10-11)Microdialysis sampling has matured into a standard technique for sampling the rat brain in vivo. Microdialysis is beginning to be used for sampling from other tissues in laboratory animals. It has also been used in humans. ... -
Ionic-passivated FeS2 photocapacitors for energy conversion and storage
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013-08-08) -
Solid-Liquid Interfacial Premelting
(American Physical Society, 2013-02-28)We report the observation of a premelting transition at chemically sharp solid-liquid interfaces using molecular-dynamics simulations. The transition is observed in the solid-Al—liquid-Pb system and involves the formation ... -
Calculation of the interfacial free energy of a binary hard-sphere fluid at a planar hard wall
(American Institute of Physics, 2014-01-08)Using molecular-dynamics simulation and Gibbs-Cahn Integration, we calculate the interfacial free energy γ of a binary hard-sphere fluid mixture at a structureless, planar hard wall. The calculation is performed as a ... -
Single-fiber-laser-based wavelength tunable excitation for coherent Raman spectroscopy
(Optical Society of America, 2013-06)We demonstrate coherent Raman spectroscopy (CRS) using a tunable excitation source based on a single femtosecond fiber laser. The frequency difference between the pump and the Stokes pulses was generated by soliton self-frequency ... -
Optimally shaped narrowband pulses for femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy in the range 330-750 nm
(Optical Society of America, 2013-03-25)Spectral compression of femtosecond pulses by second harmonic generation in the presence of substantial group velocity dispersion provides a convenient source of narrowband Raman pump pulses for femtosecond stimulated Raman ... -
Nanoscale Manipulation of Surfaces and Interfaces: Engineering Electrical Properties Through Nanofabrication
(University of Kansas, 2013-05-31)Nanotechnology interest and research has increased dramatically over the last decade, but there remain fundamental limitations and barriers to the fabrication of ever smaller devices. To overcome these limitations, new ... -
Development of Analytical Methods for the Determination of Methylarginines in Serum
(University of Kansas, 2013-05-31)Nitric oxide (NO) plays a crucial role in numerous physiological pathways including the regulation of the endothelium that lines blood vessels throughout the body. Therefore, in order to maintain good endothelial health, ... -
Model membranes as a tool for biological studies and biosensor applications
(University of Kansas, 2013-12-31)The biological membrane is a fundamental cellular structure which forms the natural selective barrier separating cells from their environment. Model membranes have long been employed to study these complicated structures ... -
The Teaching of Chemistry in Universities and Colleges
(University of Kansas, 1912-06-01)The Teaching of Chemistry in Universities and Colleges. An Inquiry into the size and character of the Faculties, the character of the Courses of Study, and the Text Books used in the Chemistry Departments of 125 American ... -
The role of retinoic acid in hepatic lipid homeostasis defined by genomic binding and transcriptome profiling
(BioMed Central, 2013-08-28)Background: The eyes and skin are obvious retinoid target organs. Vitamin A deficiency causes night blindness and retinoids are widely used to treat acne and psoriasis. However, more than 90% of total body retinol is ... -
Palladium-catalyzed substitution of (coumarinyl)methyl acetates with C-, N-, and S-nucleophiles
(Beilstein-Institut, 2012-07-27)The palladium-catalyzed nucleophilic substitution of (coumarinyl)methyl acetates is described. The reaction proceeds though a palladium π-benzyl-like complex and allows for many different types of C-, N-, and S-nucleophiles ... -
