Fast and High-Resolution Reversed-Phase Separation of Synthetic Oligonucleotides

Synthetic DNAand RNA-based oligonucleotides are among many successful biotherapeutic drugs to treat many different kinds of illnesses. They are synthesized in a multistep process. Although coupling efficiencies are high, the overall yield of oligos decreases as the number of cycles increases, with failure in coupling with single (N-1) and double (N-2) deletions as the major impurities. To ensur...

Nanoscale phase separation in manganites

We study the possibility of nanoscale phase separation in manganites in the framework of the double exchange model. The homogeneous canted state of this model is proved to be unstable toward the formation of small ferromagnetic droplets inside an antiferromagnetic insulating matrix. For the ferromagnetic polaronic state we analyze the quantum effects related to the tails of electronic wave func...

Phase separation in confined systems

We review the current state of knowledge of phase separation and phase equilibria in porous materials. Our emphasis is on fundamental studies of simple fluids (composed of small, neutral molecules) and well-characterized materials. While theoretical and molecular simulation studies are stressed, we also survey experimental investigations that are fundamental in nature. Following a brief survey ...

Reentrant Phase Separation in Microemulsions.

We propose a mechanism for reentrant phase separation in globular microemulsions based on the combined effects of a shape transition and attractive interactions. Long cylindrical globules can phase separate at relatively low interglobular attractions. A transformation from elongated globules to compact spherical drops alters the balance between the entropy and effective interglobule interaction...
