Development of efficient and stable bifunctional transition metal phosphide catalysts is critical for advancing hydrogen production technologies. Herein, RuCo co-doped NiP (RuCoNiP) was designed and synthesized by one-step electrodeposition for Ni electronic structure modulation, and evolved to RuCoNiP@α-Ni(OH) and RuCoNiP@Co/Ni(OH) heterointerfaces by self-assembled reconstruction during HER and OER processes, respectively. RuCoNiP@α-Ni(OH) enhances HER activity (305.

As the main protein forming the vascular extracellular matrix, collagen has a weak antigenicity, making it an attractive candidate for coatings of vascular grafts. In order to bring antithrombotic properties to collagen for obtaining suitable blood compatibility of surfaces and further bioactive molecule carrying capacity, heparinization appears as a method of choice. Thus, in this article, pH-driven self-assembly was used to form collagen-based hydrogels with physical incorporation of heparins, especially low molecular weight heparin or unfractionated heparin at 1 IU/mL and 6 IU/mL.

Dipeptides were constructed using hydrophobic amino acid residues following AMP prediction. After that Boc-modification was performed on the screened peptides and finally Boc-Phe-Trp-OMe and Boc-Trp-Trp-OMe were synthesized. Even though no inhibition zones were observed in agar well diffusion assays, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) analysis revealed anti-bacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, with MIC ranging from 230 to 400 μg/mL.

The immobilization of proteins onto clay surfaces has proven beneficial for pharmaceutical and environmental applications. This study examines the adsorption of sodium caseinate (Cas), an amphiphilic protein widely used in pharmaceutical formulations, onto sodium montmorillonite (Mt). Adsorption isotherms and kinetics were examined at two pHs, above and below Cas isoelectric point (IEP).

The adsorption of ellipsoidal colloidal particles on liquid interfaces induces interfacial deformation, resulting in anisotropic interface-mediated interactions and the formation of superstructures. Soft prolate-shaped microgels at the air-water interface offer an ideal model for studying spontaneous capillary-driven self-assembly due to their tunable aspect ratio, controlled functionality, and softness. These microgels consist of a polystyrene core surrounded by a cross-linked, fluorescently labeled poly([Formula: see text]-isopropylmethylacrylamide) shell.
