Auto-catalytic Ceria Nanoparticles Offer Neuroprotection to Adult Rat Spinal Cord Neurons
Mainak Das,Swanand Patil,Neelima Bhargava,Jung-Fong Kang,Lisa Riedel,Sudipta Seal,James J. Hickman +6 more
TL;DR: Retention of neuronal function is demonstrated from electrophysiological recordings and the possibility of its application to prevent ischemic insult is suggested from an oxidative injury assay and a mechanism is proposed to explain the auto-catalytic properties of these nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inkjet printing for high-throughput cell patterning
TL;DR: The results indicate that commercial inkjet printing technology can be used to create viable cellular patterns with a resolution of 350 microm through the deposition of biologically active proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heavily nitrogen doped, graphene supercapacitor from silk cocoon
Vikrant Sahu,Sonia Grover,Brindan Tulachan,Meenakshi Sharma,Gaurav Srivastava,Manas Roy,Manav Saxena,Niroj Kumar Sethy,Kalpana Bhargava,Deepu Philip,Hansung Kim,Gurmeet Singh,Sushil Kumar Singh,Mainak Das,Raj Kishore Sharma +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors have developed a cheap and easy process for synthesizing heavily nitrogen doped graphene from non-mulberry silk cocoon membrane (Tassar, Antheraea mylitta) by pyrolyzing the cocoon at 400°C in argon atmosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seed treatment with iron pyrite (FeS2) nanoparticles increases the production of spinach
Gaurav Srivastava,Chinmaya Kumar Das,Anubhav Das,Satish Kumar Singh,Manas Roy,Hansung Kim,Niroj Sethy,Ashok Kumar,Raj Kishore Sharma,Sushil Kumar Singh,Deepu Philip,Mainak Das +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors synthesized such iron pyrite nanoparticles in a controlled environment and used them as seed treatment agent (Pro-fertilizer) for spinach crops.
Journal ArticleDOI
Embryonic motoneuron-skeletal muscle co-culture in a defined system.
Mainak Das,John W. Rumsey,Cassie Gregory,Neelima Bhargava,Jung Fong Kang,Jung Fong Kang,Peter Molnar,Peter Molnar,Lisa Riedel,Lisa Riedel,Xiufang Guo,James J. Hickman,James J. Hickman +12 more
TL;DR: A minimalist serum-free defined system to co-culture rat mammalian nerve and muscle cells in order to form functional neuromuscular junctions provides a basic system that can be utilized for nerve-muscle tissue engineering, regenerative medicine and development of limb prosthetics.
