The use of infrared spectroscopy for biological and clinical applications has been demonstrated by a large number of proof-of-principle studies showing a high sensitivity and specificity […]

Conventional methods for phosphorus (P) analysis are time-consuming and laborious, which limited the application of rapid P monitoring in water. In this study, silicon (Si) was applied to […]

Nucleation and crystallization arising from liquid to solid phase are involved in a multitude of processes in fields ranging from materials science to biology. Controlling the […]

A molecular-level understanding of phase changes in hydrogen-bonded solid-state systems is of great importance in fields spanning thermal science to medical therapeutics. Polyols have recently emerged […]

Attenuated total reflection, surface enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (ATR-SEIRAS) is a spectrochemical method used to study heterogeneous redox reaction mechanisms. ATR-SEIRAS can detect changes in the […]

We demonstrate how combined in-situ measurements and finite element method modeling can provide new insight into the relative contribution of mass transport to the growth of […]

The pH low insertion peptide (pHLIP) is a pH-sensitive cell penetrating peptide that transforms from an unstructured coil on the membrane surface at pH > 7, to a transmembrane (TM) […]

Surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS) is an increasingly popular analytical technique for studying molecular adsorption, finding applications in catalysis, biosensing and battery research. Crucial to its […]

The electrochemical oxidation of furfural and down-pathway intermediate and product species (furoic acid, 2(5H)-furanone, 5-hydroxy-2(5H)-furanone, and maleic acid) is investigated on platinum electrodes via attenuated total […]
