Rational Design of an Amphiphilic Coordination Cage-Based Emulsifier

design of an analog fuzzy logic controller chip

fuzzy logic has been developed over the past three decades into a widely applied techinque in classification and control engineering. today fuzzy logic control is one of the most important applications of fuzzy set theory and specially fuzzy logic. there are two general approachs for using of fuzzy control, software and hardware. integrated circuits as a solution for hardware realization are us...

Rational Design of Pathogen-Mimicking Amphiphilic Materials as Nanoadjuvants

An opportunity exists today for cross-cutting research utilizing advances in materials science, immunology, microbial pathogenesis, and computational analysis to effectively design the next generation of adjuvants and vaccines. This study integrates these advances into a bottom-up approach for the molecular design of nanoadjuvants capable of mimicking the immune response induced by a natural in...

Design of Protein Cage – Based Biohybrid Materials

Guest-induced formation of an icosahedral coordination cage.

A coordination cage with an elusive icosahedral geometry was obtained by K+-induced rearrangement of a hexanuclear [(cymene)Ru(pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate)]6 complex.

An octanuclear coordination cage with a 'cuneane' core--a topological isomer of a cubic cage.

The octanuclear coordination cage [Ni(8)(L(14Naph))(12)](BF(4))(16) has the core structure of a 'cuneane'--a toplogical isomer of a cube--with a metal ion at each of the eight vertices and bridging ligand spanning each of the twelve edges; this is the only possible 8-vertex polyhedron other than a cube that will form a cage in which each metal is connected to three others.
