TL;DR: In this paper, the fracture behavior is improved by using tungsten laminated materials and wire reinforced materials, which can achieve self-passivation, which is essential in case of loss-of-coolant accidents for plasma facing materials.

TL;DR: The maximum number of observed charges for peptides and smaller proteins correlates well with the number of basic amino acid residues (Arg, Lys, His), except for disulfide-containing molecules, such as lysozyme and bovine albumin.
Abstract: Electrospray ionization produces multiply charged molecular ions for biomolecules with molecular weights in excess of 100,000. This allows mass spectrometers with limited mass-to-charge range to extend their molecular weight range by a factor equal to the number of charges. The maximum number of observed charges for peptides and smaller proteins correlates well with the number of basic amino acid residues (Arg, Lys, His), except for disulfide-containing molecules, such as lysozyme and bovine albumin. However, reduction of disulfide linkages with 1,4-dithiothreitol (Cleland's reagent) may allow the protein to be in an extended conformation and make "buried" basic residues available for protonation to yield higher charged molecular ions by the electrospray ionization process. For larger proteins reduction of disulfide bridges greatly increases the maximum charge state, but charging of basic amino acid residues remains less efficient than for smaller proteins.

TL;DR: In this article, a differential centrifugation technique was used to obtain NCC whiskers with a narrow size distribution, and it was shown that the volume of NCC in different fractions had an inverse relationship with relative centrifugal force.
Abstract: Nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) was prepared by sulfuric acid hydrolysis of microcrystalline cellulose. A differential centrifugation technique was studied to obtain NCC whiskers with a narrow size distribution. It was shown that the volume of NCC in different fractions had an inverse relationship with relative centrifugal force (RCF). The length of NCC whiskers was also fractionized by differential RCF. The aspect ratio of NCC in different fractions had a relatively narrow range. This technique provides an easy way of producing NCC whiskers with a narrow size distribution.

TL;DR: A new class of robust, ultrafine silica core-shell nanoparticles formed from silica cross-linked, individual block copolymer micelles are reported, which could potentially provide a new nanomedicine platform for imaging, detection, and treatment, as well as novel colloidal particles and building blocks for mutlifunctional materials.
Abstract: Micellar nanoparticles made of surfactants and polymers have attracted wide attention in the materials and biomedical community for controlled drug delivery, molecular imaging, and sensing; however, their long-term stability remains a topic of intense study. Here we report a new class of robust, ultrafine silica core-shell nanoparticles formed from silica cross-linked, individual block copolymer micelles. Compared with pure polymeric micelles, the main advantage of the new core-shell nanoparticles is that they have significantly improved stability and do not break down during dilution. We also studied the drug loading and release properties of the silica cross-linked micellar particles, and we found that the new core-shell nanoparticles have a slower release rate which allows the entrapped molecules to be slowly released over a much longer period of time under the same experimental conditions. A range of functional groups can be easily incorporated through co-condensation with the silica matrix. The potential to deliver hydrophobic agents into cancer cells has been demonstrated. Because of their unique structures and properties, these novel core-shell nanoparticles could potentially provide a new nanomedicine platform for imaging, detection, and treatment, as well as novel colloidal particles and building blocks for mutlifunctional materials.
