HIGH STABILITY THIOL-COATED GOLD NANOSTARS MONOLAYERS WITH PHOTO-THERMAL ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY AND WETTABILITY CONTROL

High Stability Thiol-Coated Gold Nanostars Monolayers with Photo-Thermal Antibacterial Activity and Wettability Control

The adhesion and proliferation of bacteria on abiotic surfaces pose challenges in LOCKDOWN SPRAY both health care and industrial applications.Gold nanostars (GNSs) monolayers grafted on glass have demonstrated to exert antibacterial action due to their photo-thermal features.Here, these GNS layers were further functionalized using thiols monolayers

Chronic mild stress induces anhedonic behavior and changes in glutamate release, BDNF trafficking and dendrite morphology only in stress vulnerable rats. The rapid restorative action of ketamine

Depression is a debilitating mental disease, characterized by persistent low mood and anhedonia.Stress represents a major environmental risk factor for depression; the complex interaction of stress with genetic factors results in different individual vulnerability or resilience to the disorder.Dysfunctions of the glutamate system have a primary rol

MCORD - MPD Cosmic Ray Detector a new features

The main detector system at the Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) Double Breast Pumps located in Dubna, Russia is the Multi-Purpose Detector (MPD).For better calibration reason, the MPD needs an additional trigger system for an off-beam calibration of MPD sub-detectors and for rejection (veto) of cosmic muons.The system should also be us
