Polysilsesquioxane Having Glycidyl Group as A New Hybrid Adhesive Material

Recombinant mussel adhesive protein as a gene delivery material.

Efficient target gene delivery into eukaryotic cells is important for biotechnological research and gene therapy. Gene delivery based on proteins, including histones, has recently emerged as a powerful non-viral DNA transfer technique. Here, we investigated the potential use of a recombinant mussel adhesive protein, hybrid fp-151, as a gene delivery material, in view of its similar basic amino ...

Tunable Thermal Transport in Polysilsesquioxane (PSQ) Hybrid Crystals

Crystalline polymers have attracted significant interest in recent years due to their enhanced mechanical and thermal properties. As one type of organic-inorganic hybrid polymer crystals, polysilsesquioxane can be synthesized by large-scale and inexpensive so-gel processes with two precursors. In this paper, both octylene-bridged and hexylene-bridged PSQ crystals are characterized with infrared...

A new aminothiazolylcephalosporin having 1-carboxyethoxyimino group, ME1228.

Aminothiazolylacetamidocephalosporins having 1-carboxyethoxyimino groups were synthesized and found to have excellent antibacterial activities including anti-pseudomonal activity and low toxicities. Among these cephalosporins, ME1228 having (S)-1-carboxyethoxyimino substituent and being combined with an (N-ethyl-4-pyridinio)thiomethyl group at C-3 showed marked therapeutic effects against syste...

Symmetric (36,15,6) Design Having U(3,3) as an Automorphism Group

Up to isomorphism there are four symmetric (36,15,6) designs with automorphisms of order 7. Full automorphism group of one of them is the Chevalley group G(2, 2) ~ U(3,3) : Z2 of order 12096. Unitary group U(3,3) acts transitively on that design.
