Journal ArticleDOI
The interaction of native DNA with Zn(II) and Cu(II) complexes of 5-triethyl ammonium methyl salicylidene orto-phenylendiimine
Arturo Silvestri,Giampaolo Barone,Giuseppe Ruisi,Daniele Anselmo,Serena Riela,Vincenzo Turco Liveri +5 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that CuL(2+) induces the formation of supramolecular aggregates of DNA in aqueous solutions in a function of the metal complex-DNA molar ratio by UV absorption spectrophotometry, circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of Ultra-small ZnS Nanoparticles by Solid−Solid Reaction in the Confined Space of AOT Reversed Micelles
TL;DR: In this article, a novel solid−solid reaction between Na2S and ZnSO4 nanoparticles in the confined space of AOT reversed micelles was performed by mixing two dry AOT/n-heptane solutions, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spectroscopic study of the interaction of NiII-5-triethyl ammonium methyl salicylidene ortho-phenylendiiminate with native DNA
Giampaolo Barone,Noemi Gambino,Angela Ruggirello,Arturo Silvestri,Alessio Terenzi,Vincenzo Turco Liveri +5 more
TL;DR: The interaction of native calf thymus DNA with the cationic Ni(II) complex of 5-triethyl ammonium methyl salicylidene ortho-phenylendiimine (NiL(2+)) with DNA has been monitored as a function of the metal complex-DNA molar ratio by UV absorption spectrophotometry, circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
How self-assembly of amphiphilic molecules can generate complexity in the nanoscale
TL;DR: A panoramic view of this exciting problematic clarifying what is meant with the concept of complexity and how the rich world of amphiphilic molecules are employed for obtaining complex nanostructure-based systems with novel characteristics for applications in nanotechnology as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic properties of alcohols in a micellar phase. Binding constants and partial molar volumes of pentanol in sodium dodecylsulfate micelles at 15, 25, and 35°C
TL;DR: In this article, the concentration of pentanol in the ternary system was analyzed using a mass-action model for the alcohol distribution in micellar solutions and the partial molar volume of alcohol bound to the micelles and the ratio between the binding constant and the aggregation number of the surfactant were calculated.
