摘要:
The present invention provides a method of correcting peptide or protein misfolding, which can be used to treat peptide and protein disorder in a mammalian subject. The method comprises administering to the mammalian subject, preferably a human subject, an effective amount of a composition comprising sterically stabilized simple micelles (SSM) of a hydrophilic polymer-conjugated lipid or sterically stabilized mixed micelles (SSMM) of a hydrophilic polymer-conjugated lipid and a water-insoluble lipid. The composition may further comprise a biologically active compound, such as but not limited to vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), associated with the SSM or SSMM.
摘要:
A device is presented comprising a multi-layer structure with a plurality of metal islands on the surface of a solid transparent substrate. The islands are coated by an ultrathin sol-gel derived silica film via self-assembled monolayer.
摘要:
A conducting polymer film with an improved space filling is formed on a metal electrode surface. A self-assembling monolayer is formed directly on the metal surface where the monolayer has a first functional group that binds to the metal surface and a second chemical group that forms a chemical bonding site for molecules forming the conducting polymer. The conducting polymer is then conventioonally deposited by electrochemical deposition. In one example, a conducting film of polyaniline is formed on a gold electrode surface with an intermediate monolayer of p-aminothiophenol.
摘要:
An electrochemical method for fast and non-destructive visual detection of nonmetallic surface inclusions in metallic substrates is provided. The method uses electrode modification techniques, wherein, for example, a monomer is electrochemically polymerized, to form a dark film on the metallic substrate, thus causing any nonconductive inclusions, which will not be coated with the film, to appear bright and highly visible.
摘要:
A method is presented for use in fabrication of metal islands on an oxide substrate. The method comprises: depositing a selected metal on the oxide substrate by evaporation of said selected metal; and annealing a film of the selected metal on said substrate at temperatures including an annealing temperature being less than 50° C. lower than a glass transition temperature, thereby forming the metal islands partially embedded in said substrate.

摘要:
This invention seeks to provide methods and apparatus for analysis. Electromagnetic radiation is transmitted through a plurality of metallic islands on a transparent substrate. A resultant optical property of the plurality of metallic islands is measured. Thereafter a chemical substance is adsorbed onto the plurality of metallic islands so as to produce a chemical substance-metallic islands moiety.Electromagnetic radiation is transmitted through the chemical substance-metallic islands moiety and a resultant optical property of metallic islands in the chemical substance-metallic islands moiety is measured. The resultant optical property of the metallic islands in chemical substance-metallic islands moiety and the resultant optical property of the plurality of metallic islands are employed so as to provide at least one of a quantitative indication and a qualitative indication of at least one of: the chemical substance-metallic islands moiety, a functionality of the chemical substance-metallic islands moiety, the plurality of metallic islands, a functionality of the plurality of metallic islands, the chemical substance and a functionality of the chemical substance.
