Highly efficient human serum filtration with water-soluble nanoporous nanoparticles

Highly efficient human serum filtration with water-soluble nanoporous nanoparticles

BACKGROUND Human serum has the potential to become the most informative source of novel biomarkers, but its study is very difficult due to the incredible complexity of its molecular composition. We describe a novel tool based on biodegradable nanoporous nanoparticles (NPNPs) that allows the harvesting of low-molecular-weight fractions of crude human serum or other biofluids. NPNPs with a diamet...

Electrochemical Studies of Water-Soluble Palladium Nanoparticles

Aqueous-soluble monolayer-protected palladium nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrogen reduction of Pd(II) in a water solution. The particles were then further functionalized by incorporating multiple copies of mercapto derivatives of viologen into the particle protecting monolayers. The electrochemistry of the viologen moieties with the particles dissolved in solution or immobilized onto ele...

Irritant Gases ( Moderately Highly Water Soluble ) Irritant

mixture of suspended small particles, fumes, and gases. More than 400 toxic compounds have been demonstrated in the smoke of a typical house fire. Polyvinyl chloride, a component of many plastic goods, generates at least 75 different toxic products when burned. Of these toxic substances, carbon monoxide (CO) appears to be the most common fatal substance associated with fire victims. Thermal inh...
