Metal nanoparticles that are stabilized in solutions by polymer surfactants or are imbedded
in polymer composites have been of intense recent interest1 with regard to their fabrication …

Desert plants are hypothesized to survive the environmental stress inherent to these regions
in part thanks to symbioses with microorganisms, and yet these microbial species, the …

Isolable, water-soluble gold clusters protected by monolayers of tiopronin (tiopronin−MPCs)
or coenzyme A (CoA−MPCs) were synthesized by a procedure of comparable simplicity to …

<p id="p001">A suspected case of sexual transmission from a male survivor of Ebola virus
disease (EVD) to his female partner (the patient in this report) occurred in Liberia in March …

Existing compendia of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) are incomplete, in part because they are
derived almost exclusively from small and polyadenylated RNAs. Here we present a more …

This paper describes gold, silver, and palladium nanoparticles coated with monolayers of
trimethyl(mercaptoundecyl)ammonium ligands. The monolayer-protected clusters (MPCs) are …

This paper describes the synthesis, characterization, reactivity, and electrochemistry of
monolayer-protected clusters (MPCs) of palladium that are passivated by monolayers of …

Grape seed proanthocyanidins are known to possess a broad spectrum of pharmacological,
medicinal and therapeutic properties. Previous studies in our laboratories have …

Background Agaves are succulent monocotyledonous plants native to xeric environments of
North America. Because of their adaptations to their environment, including crassulacean …

Ovarian folliculogenesis is characterized, in part, by the formation and expansion of the fluid-filled
antrum. Development of this cavity requires water influx, which may occur by …
