Here we present a colloidal approach to synthesize bismuth chalcohalide nanocrystals (BiEX NCs, in which E=S, Se and X=Cl, Br, I). Our method yields orthorhombic elongated BiEX NCs, with BiSCl...
Oleogels are a class of solid-fat mimetics that contain a large fraction of oil. Most of these materials have low stiffness and poor oil-binding capacity at commercially viable concentrations, which...
Recently, we have reported the preparation of a silk fibroin-supported Palladium catalyst (Pd/SF) and its use in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of aryl iodides. Since its synthetic applicability and structural features...
On a sample of the Turin Shroud (TS), we applied a new method for dating ancient linen threads by inspecting their structural degradation by means of Wide-Angle X-ray Scattering (WAXS)....
Neurodegenerative disorders (NDs) such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD) and prion diseases are some of the most common forms of age-related diseases. Even if pathogenesis of these neurodegenerative...
Mitochondria dysfuntion in Cockayne syndrome: the role of DRP1 protein
Hyaluronic acid (Hy) is a glycosaminoglycan widely distributed in humans and it is the main component of the extracellular matrix. The wide range of physiological functions includes hydration and turgidity...
