NIR-II fluorescence imaging greatly reduces scattering coefficients for nearly all tissue types
at long wavelengths, benefiting deep tissue imaging. However, most of the NIR-II …

Among various alcohols, those substituted with fluorine, such as 2, 2, 2-trifluoroethanol
(TFE) or 3, 3, 3, 3 ', 3 ', 3 '-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP), have a marked potential to induce …

The morphology formed in a crystalline-amorphous diblock copolymer, e-caprolactone-
blockbutadiene (PCL-fe-PB), has been investigated by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) …

Although the membrane fusion of spermatozoon and egg cells is the central event of
fertilization, the underlying molecular mechanism remains virtually unknown. Gene …

Biosourced and biodegradable polymers for additive manufacturing could enable the rapid
fabrication of parts for a broad spectrum of applications ranging from healthcare to …

Compactness and shape are two of the critical properties that describe the degree of protein
folding. Solution X-ray scattering is an effective technique for measuring these properties …

Disulfide bonds are naturally formed in more than 50% of amyloidogenic proteins, but the
exact role of disulfide bonds in protein aggregation is still not well-understood. The …

In alkali chlorides heavily doped with Cu+ ions, CuCl microcrystals of different sizes are
grown under different heat treatments. Their size and shape are studied using small‐angle X …

Deletion of 13 amino acids from the carboxyl terminus of the 149-amino acid staphylococcal
nuclease molecule results in a denatured, partly unfolded molecule that lacks persistent …

Methanol-induced conformational transitions of cytochromec (cytc) at acidic pH values were
investigated with a combined use of far and near-UV CD, fluorescence, NMR spectroscopy …
