Towards the synthesis of PNAG crosslinkers to identify protein binding partners
(2019)Bacterial biofilms are an area of major concern in the medical field due to natural drug resistance. Many pathogenetic species of bacteria that infect humans including Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas ... -
PHOTOINDUCED ELECTRON TRANSFER FOR PROTECTING GROUPS AND POLYMER SYNTHESIS
(2019)Using light to drive chemical reactions affords spatial and temporal control not typically displayed in thermal chemistry. For this reason, light induced transformations have been used in the manufacturing of polymers and ... -
HIGH REPETITION RATE LASER-DRIVEN ELECTRON ACCELERATION TO MEGA-ELECTRON-VOLT ENERGIES
(2019)Laser-driven particle accelerators have the potential to be a compact and cost-effective replacement for conventional accelerators. Despite the significant achievements of laser wakefield acceleration in the last two ... -
EXPLORING THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN FUEL AND OXIDIZER REACTION OF BIOCIDAL ENERGETIC MATERIALS
(2019)Energetic materials are defined as a class of material with extremely high amount of stored chemical energy that can be released when ignited, along with intensive light emission and shock generation. Developing new energetic ... -
EXPLORING ENDOGLYCOSIDASES FOR ANTIBODY GLYCOENGINEERING
(2019)Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) comprise a rapidly growing class of therapeutics with great potential in treating infections, inflammations, cancers, and autoimmunities. The glycosylation of an antibody determines its functional ...
