development of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles

a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...

Development of Semiconductor Laser for Optical Communication

The performance, functionality and productivity of the semiconductor laser have been dramatically improved since its invention in 1962. Today it came to be indispensable for our life as optical components connecting home and the Internet as well as long-distance large-capacity trunk networks. It may be said that the information revolution pulled by the explosive spread of the Internet is origin...

30 YEARS OF THE MINERALOCORTICOID RECEPTOR: Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists: 60 years of research and development

The cDNA of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) was cloned 30 years ago, in 1987. At that time, spirolactone, the first generation of synthetic steroid-based MR antagonists (MRAs), which was identified in preclinical in vivo models, had already been in clinical use for 30 years. Subsequent decades of research and development by Searle & Co., Ciba-Geigy, Roussel Uclaf and Schering AG toward iden...

Stroke: 30 years of progress.

In 3 decades, Stroke has evolved from a fledgling publication to the leading journal in the field. Many factors have contributed to this, particularly the succession of outstanding editors in chief. We begin a series on “Stroke: 30 Years of Progress,” wherein each editor recalls the highlights of his tenure, providing a unique view of the past 3 decades (see page 3 for Dr Millikan’s editorial)....
