Attractive self-interaction processes in antibody formulations increase the risk of aggregation and extraordinarily elevated viscosity at high protein concentrations. These challenges affect manufacturing and application. [...]

The cubic diamond (Fd-3m) group IVA element Si has been the material driver of the electronics industry since its inception. We report synthesis of a new cubic (Im-3m) group IVA material, a GeSn solid solution, upon heating Ge and Sn at pressures from 13 to 28 GPa using double-sided diamond anvil laser-heating and large volume press methods. [...]

This study investigates the microstructure across the interconnection zone of IN718/Al/IN718 couples obtained by the Transient Liquid Phase Bonding (TLPB) process at temperatures ranging from 800 °C to 1000 °C. The crystal structure and the chemical composition of the phases formed, including the AlNi intermetallic, were evaluated using TEM-EDS. [...]

Sorption-luminescent method for cerium determination based on natural Transcarpathian clinoptilolite without using of complex synthetic organic compounds and toxic solvents was proposed. Optimal luminophore preparation conditions are sorption of free Ce3+ ions by zeolite in the solution with pH 4.5. [...]

We performed in‐situ XAS study of N 2 O decomposition over CuO/CeO 2 catalysts. The Cu K‐edge and Ce L 3 ‐edge XANES and EXAFS analyses revealed the dynamic and crucial role of Cu 2+ /Cu + and Ce 4+ /Ce 3+ ionic pairs during the catalytic reaction. [...]

The majority of eukaryotic proteins is modified by N-terminal acetylation, which plays a fundamental role in protein homeostasis, localization, and complex formation. N-terminal acetyltransferases (NATs) mainly act co-translationally on newly synthesized proteins at the ribosomal tunnel exit. [...]

The mechanism of action of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) has been debated over many years, and various models have been proposed. In this work we combine small angle X-ray/neutron scattering (SAXS/SANS) techniques to systematically study the effect of AMPs on the cytoplasmic membrane of Escherichia coli (E. [...]
