SYNTHESIS OF MONODISPERSE NANOCRYSTALS VIA MICROREACTION: OPEN-TO-AIR SYNTHESIS WITH OLEYLAMINE AS A COLIGAND

Synthesis of Monodisperse Nanocrystals via Microreaction: Open-to-Air Synthesis with Oleylamine as a Coligand

Abstract Microreaction provides a controllable tool to synthesize CdSe nanocrystals (NCs) in an accelerated fashion.However, the surface traps created during the fast growth usually Griddle result in low photoluminescence (PL) efficiency for the formed products.Herein, the reproducible synthesis of highly luminescent CdSe NCs directly in open air w

FOXA1 promotes tumor progression in prostate cancer via the insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 pathway.

Fork-head box protein A1 (FOXA1) is a "pioneer factor" that is known to bind to the androgen receptor (AR) and regulate the transcription of AR-specific genes.However, the precise role of FOXA1 in prostate cancer (PC) remains unknown.In this study, we report that FOXA1 plays a critical role in PC cell proliferation.The expression of FOXA1 was highe

Physical and biological determinants of collective behavioural dynamics in complex systems: pulling chain formation in the nest-weaving ant Oecophylla smaragdina.

The evolution of nest weaving, the inclusion of larval silk in the nest walls, is considered one of the pinnacles of cooperative behaviour in social insects.Within the four ant genera in which this has evolved, Oecophylla are Motor Contol Board unique in being the only group that precedes the deposition of larval silk by actively manipulating the l
