Introduction: One of the combination therapies for the treatment of cancer is ultrasound with other agents, which has received considerable attention in recent years. Ultrasound causes cavitation phenomenon that can produce some effects, such as; Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), which results in damage to cancer cells. When a particle is in liquid, the cavitation threshold decrea...

This work presents the synthesis and studies of a red-NIR luminescent liquid crystal compound based on an octahedral metallic cluster core orthogonally bounded to six non-mesogenic organic ligands. It evidences synergetic effects between the organic and inorganic parts of the hybrid, resulting in the generation of liquid crystal properties on cooling from the isotropic melt.

We have demonstrated that the infiltration of temperature-responsive polymers (e.g., PNIPAAm) into vertically-aligned carbon nanotube forests created synergetic effects, which provided the basis for the development of smart nanocomposite films with temperature-induced self-cleaning and/or controlled release capabilities.

The possibility of application ERS-2 SAR for monitoring of Russian European tundra ecosystem components was investigated. The synergetic using of SAR with Landsat data can be widely used for investigation and mapping of tundra vegetation, soils, for the ecosystem monitoring of anthropogenic effects.

A class of novel nickel cobalt oxide hollow nanosponges were synthesized through a sodium borohydride reduction strategy. Due to their porous and hollow nanostructures, and synergetic effects between their components, the optimized nickel cobalt oxide nanosponges exhibited excellent catalytic activity towards oxygen evolution reaction.

the development of regional logistics system is a typical self-adapting and self-organizing evolution process. According to the structures and operation of regional logistics, the self-organizing characteristics of regional logistics synergetic evolution are analyzed. Moreover, the space evolution phases of regional logistics system are educed based on the complex system theory, and the enterpr...

The synergetic combination of two metals in bimetallic (BM) nanoparticle (NP) significantly changes the optical, catalytic, electronic and magnetic properties. The possible reason for synergetic effects is the heterometallic bond between two metals, dilution of active site, the combination of two kinds of metals and their fine structures. The enhanced catalytic properties of BM nanoparticles ar...
