A summary of X-ray, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier transform infra-red analytical results is presented to describe the structure of the primer and delineate the differences with a typical sol-gel prepared by acid hydrolysis of a metal alkoxide.R.A. Pike and M.A. DeCrescente...
This high-performance DTM coating can be applied directly to properly prepped metal or over roughened painted surfaces without the need for a primer, forming a moisture-repelling barrier for lasting protection. Its exceptional adhesion and weather resistance make it ideal for use over POR-15 Rust ...
Several approaches have been developed over the last 20 years in attempts to replace chromate-based surface treatments and primers, but very few offer equivalent technical performances in regard to corrosion protection, adhesion and solvent resistance [6], [7], [8], [9]. Among them, sol–gel...
For many applications elution of the mRNA from the beads is not required as the beads do not interfere with downstream enzymatic reactions. The bead-bound oligo (dT)25can also function as a primer for RT and synthesis of first-strand cDNA, allowing the construct...
primers, topcoats or direct-to-metal topcoats. These urethane coatings inherently suffer from poor corrosion protection and adhesion when applied directly to metal substrates such as cold-rolled steel, aluminum, and galvanized steel. As an answer to this problem, we have develope...
Condensation and remodeling of nuclear genomes play an essential role in the regulation of gene expression and replication. Yet, our understanding of these processes and their regulatory role in other DNA-containing organelles, has been limited. This stu
The use of immobilized enzymes as biocatalysts has great potential to improve the efficiency and environmental sustainability of many industrial processes. Here, we report a novel approach that allows for the direct production of a highly active immobili
With the aim of exploringE. coli’sability to synthesize methionine via the direct-sulfurylation pathway using the MetXand MetYenzymes, we cloned four differentmetY/Xgene pairs to complement the ΔmetABmethionine auxotroph bacteria. The selection ofmetY/Xgene pairs was based on a previously chara...
compared to conventional cryopreservation routines in cryo vials, one billion cells were frozen in 50 mL cryo bags. Upon thawing, the cells were immediately seeded in scalable suspension-based bioreactors for expansion to assess the stemness maintenance and for neural differentiation to assess their di...
If you're a financial institution, and you are going to have Web-based banking, it gives you the ability to have sticky security controls, rather than “stovepipes.” If you're a utility industry, and you have to comply withNorth America Reliability Corporation (NERC)andCritical Infrastructure...
