Efficient microencapsulation of a liquid isocyanate with in situ shell functionalization

Title:  Efficient microencapsulation of a liquid isocyanate with in situ shell functionalization Authors:  Nguyen, Le-Thu T. Hillewaere, Xander K. D. Teixeira, Roberto F. A. Keywords:  SELF-HEALING POLYMERS;;MICROCAPSULES;CHEMISTRY Issue Date:  2015 Publisher:  ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY, THOMAS GRAHAM HOUSE, SCIENCE PARK, MILTON RD, CAMBRIDGE CB4 0WF, CAMBS, ENGLAND Citation:  ISIKNOWLEDGE Abstract:  We report on a one-pot, facile approach for the encapsulation of the liquid hexamethylene diisocyanate isocyanurate trimer in polyurea microcapsules formed via the oil-in-water interfacial reaction of an uretonimine- modified diphenyl methane diisocyanate trimer with triaminopyrimidine, with in situ shell functionalization/modification using different types of hydrophobic agents. Remarkably, the use of hexa-methylenedisilazane resulted in microcapsules of about 70 mu m in diameter, with a smooth outer surface and a high isocyanate core content up to 85 wt% as determined by quanti

An efficient algorithm for global alignment of protein-protein interaction networks

Title:  An efficient algorithm for global alignment of protein-protein interaction networks Authors:  Dông, D.D. Hà, T.N. Hai, D.T. Cuong, D.C. Huân, H.X. Keywords:  Biological network alignment;FASTAn;Heuristic algorithm;Protein-protein interaction networks Issue Date:  2016 Publisher:  IEEE Computer Society Citation:  Scopus Abstract:  Global alignment of two protein-protein interaction networks is an essentially important task in bioinformatics/computational biology field of study. It is a challenging and widely studied research topic in recent years. Accurately aligned networks allow us to identify functional modules of proteins and/or orthologous proteins from which unknown functions of a protein can be inferred. We here introduce a novel efficient heuristic global network alignment algorithm called FASTAn, which includes two phases: the first to construct an initial alignment and the second to improve such alignment by exerting a repeated local optimization proce
