چکیده

9 Photoinduced electron transfer (ET) reactions between coumarin dyes and N, N10 dimethylaniline have been investigated inside niosome, a nonionic innocuous 11 Polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based surfactant assemblies using steady state and time12 resolved fluorescence measurements. The location of coumarin dyes has been 13 reported inside bilayer headgroup region of niosome and it was verified by 14 determination of high distribution coefficient of all the dyes inside niosome compared 15 to bulk water. Fluorescence anisotropy parameters of the dyes inside niosome are also 16 in good correlation with the above inference about their location. Bimolecular 17 diffusion guided rates inside niosome was determined by comparing the 18 microviscosities inside niosome and in acetonitrile and butanol solutions and it was 19 found that diffusion of donor and acceptor is much slower than the ET rates implying 20 insignificant role of reactant diffusion in ET reaction inside niosome. We have 21 obtained Marcus inversion region in our restricted media, which shows maxima at 22 lower exergonicity. Such behavior has been demonstrated by the presence of 23 nonequilibrium solvent excited state using two dimensional ET (2DET) theory. 24 Unusually high quenching rates of two coumarins C-152 and C-152A inside niosome 25 were explained by the presence of stable non-fluorescent twisted intramolecular 26 charge transfer (TICT) state along with emissive intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) 27 state. Moreover, intermolecular hydrogen bonding between carbonyl oxygen of these 28 two dyes with water in their non-emissive and emissive charge transfer states also play 29 a key role for their dynamical exchange to each other. 1 30 Electronic Supplementary Material (ESI) for Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics This journal is © The Owner Societies 2012

Microstructural Evaluation of Ti-6AL-4V Alloy during Hot Deformation

Among the titanium alloys, Ti-6Al-4V is the most widely used. In the present work, the uniaxial hot compressive behavior of Ti-6Al-4V has been investigated under constant strain rates. A series of dilatometery experiments were carried out to determine the transformation temperatures at different cooling rates. Specimens were homogenized at 1050 °C for 10 minutes followed by fast cooling to dif...

The Ballistic Behavior of High Strength, Low Alloy-100 Steel at Sub-zero Temperatures

The ballistic response of the high strength, low alloy (HSLA-100) steel at ambient and temperatures of -400°C, -800°C and -1960°C is investigated in this work. Lambert-jonas equation is used to fit the experimental results into a curve. The effect of quenching on ballistic behavior of HSLA-100 is also studied. The experiments are conducted on 3mm thick rectangular specimens impacted by blunt ti...

3β-Hydroxysterol Δ24-Reductase on the Surface of Hepatitis C Virus-Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells Can Be a Target for Molecular Targeting Therapy

In our previous study, we demonstrated that 3β-hydroxysterol Δ24-reductase (DHCR24) was overexpressed in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and that its expression was induced by HCV. Using a monoclonal antibody against DHCR24 (2-152a MAb), we found that DHCR24 was specifically expressed on the surface of HCC cell lines. Based on these findings, we aimed to establis...
