A bioinspired soft actuated material.
A class of soft actuated materials that can achieve lifelike motion is presented. By embedding pneumatic actuators in a soft material inspired by a biological muscle fibril architecture, and developing a simple finite element simulation of the same, tunable biomimetic motion can be achieved with fully soft structures, exemplified here by an active left ventricle simulator.
متن کاملMild and Efficient Oxidation of Alcohols with NaIO4 Catalyzed by a Manganese Porphyrin-polyoxometalate Hybrid Material
Efficient and selective oxidation of alcohols with NaIO4 catalyzed by an organic-inorganic hybrid material in which manganese(III)5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-aminophenyl)porphyrin chloride, MnIII(TAPP)Cl, is covalently linked to a Lindqvist structure of polyoxometalate, Mo6O192-, at room temperature is reported. The effect of various parameters such as catalyst amount, solvent and oxidant were studie...

متن کاملAntimicrobial Activity of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles
The production and use of iron oxide nanoparticles are growing exponentially due to its wide applications in different fields of science and technology. The objective of this study is to synthesize iron oxide nanoparticles, and modification of its surface to make it less toxic. The iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method, and surface modification was done u...
متن کاملIron uptake by Escherichia coli.
Ferric iron is transported into Escherichia coli by a number of chelating compounds. Iron transport through the outer membrane by citrate, ferrichrome, enterobactin, aerobactin, yersiniabactin, and heme is catalyzed by highly specific proteins and across the cytoplasmic membrane by ABC transport systems with lower specificity. Transport across the outer membrane requires energy, which is provid...
