Three-Dimensional Self-Assembly of Metallic Rods with Submicron Diameters Using Magnetic Interactions

J. Christopher Love, +3 more
- 26 Sep 2003 - 
TL;DR: This work provides a simple demonstration that magnetic interactions between ferromagnetic objects can direct and stabilize the formation of ordered, 3D structures by self-assembly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enzyme-catalyzed synthesis of N-acetyllactosamine with in situ regeneration of uridine 5'-diphosphate glucose and uridine 5'-diphosphate galactose

Chi-Huey Wong, +2 more
- 01 Dec 1982 - 
TL;DR: N-Acetyllactosamine has been synthesized on 80-mmol scale by an enzyme-catalyzed procedure starting from glucose 6-phosphate, N-acetylglucosamine, and phosphoenolpyruvate in a route requiring in situ (re)gen-eration of UDP-galactose (Scheme I).
Journal ArticleDOI

Generation and in Situ Evaluation of Libraries of Poly(acrylic acid) Presenting Sialosides as Side Chains as Polyvalent Inhibitors of Influenza-Mediated Hemagglutination

Seok-Ki Choi, +2 more
- 07 May 1997 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a simple microscale method for generating and evaluating libraries of derivatives of poly(acrylic acid) (pAA) that present mixtures of side chains that influence their biologi...
Journal ArticleDOI

Soft Actuators and Robots that Are Resistant to Mechanical Damage

Ramses V. Martinez, +5 more
- 01 May 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the ability of soft pneumatic actuators and robots to resist mechanical insults that would irreversibly damage or destroy hard robotic systems of comparable sizes is analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Odd-even effects in charge transport across self-assembled monolayers.

Martin M. Thuo, +6 more
- 16 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: The observed difference in charge transport between n-alkanethiols with odd and even numbers of methylenes--the "odd-even effect"--is statistically discernible using these junctions and demonstrates that this technique is sensitive to small differences in the structure and properties of the SAM.
