  2. 1. Immobilisation of Ru-Based Molecular Catalysts for Electrochemical Water Oxidation

    Author : Andrew Howe; Sascha Ott; Javier Concepcion; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular Catalysis; Metal-Organic Frameworks; Water Oxidation; Post-Synthetic Exchange; Electro-chemistry.; Kemi; Chemistry; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Artificial photosynthesis requires catalysts for efficient and selective conversions of small molecules. Molecular catalysts are advantageous to use in these instances as they offer precise control over chemical reactivity. READ MORE

  4. 2. Unraveling the importance of thiol compounds on mercury speciation, uptake and transformation by the iron-reducer Geobacter sulfurreducens

    Author : Mareike Franziska Gutensohn; Erik Björn; Ulf Skyllberg; Jeffra K. Schaefer; Vera Slaveykova; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mercury; low molecular mass thiols; speciation; uptake; methylation; reduction; Hg 0 ; Hg II ; MeHg; Geobacter sulfurreducens; ICP-MS; LC-MS MS; X-ray absorption spectroscopy; cell physiology;

    Abstract : The biogenic methylation of inorganic, divalent mercury (Hg(II)) by methylating microorganisms leads to formation and bioaccumulation of monomethyl mercury (MeHg) in the environment and can cause severe damage to ecosystems and human health. Diverse microorganisms carry the gene sequence hgcAB and are able to methylate Hg(II) intracellularly. READ MORE

  5. 3. Modification of microcapsules for controlled release

    Author : Markus Andersson Trojer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; block copolymer; coordination chemistry; polyelectrolyte multilayer; cross-linking; vibrational spectroscopy; electron paramagnetic resonance; imidazole; controlled release; colloidal stability; Microcapsule; quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation;

    Abstract : Fouling of marine organisms such as algae and barnacles on the boat hull is an enormous problem for the shipping industry. The negative consequences for the society are both economical and environmental. To prevent fouling in general, biocides are typically incorporated directly into the paint. READ MORE

  6. 4. Unravelling Sensitisation and Quenching Pathways in Lanthanide Luminophores

    Author : Salauat Kiraev; Eszter Borbas; Thomas Just Sørensen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lanthanide; Luminescence; Sensitisation; Quenching; Energy Transfer; Electron transfer; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Lanthanide (Ln) ions find use in cellular detection and probing of many analytes, owing to their unique photophysical properties. However, to make the Ln emission efficient, one has to develop a light-harvesting antenna, which is an organic chromophore that absorbs and transfers energy to the Ln. READ MORE

  7. 5. Linear models for multiscale materials simulations : Towards a seamless linking of electronic and atomistic models for complex metal oxides

    Author : Akshay Krishna Ammothum Kandy; Peter Broqvist; Jolla Kullgren; Eddie Wadbro; Ben Hourahine; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : Multiscale modelling approaches, connecting data from electronic structure calculations all the way towards engineering continuum models, have become an important ingredient in modern materials science. Materials modelling in a broader sense is already amply used to address complex chemical problems in academic science, but also in many industrial sectors. READ MORE
