An in Situ Infrared Spectroscopic Investigation of Lysine Peptide and Polylysine Adsorption to TiO2 from Aqueous Solutions

Water‐Soluble Ultra Small Paramagnetic or Superparamagnetic Metal Oxide Nanoparticles for Molecular MR Imaging

“…Bonding structures between either amino acid or dicarboxylic acid groups and metal oxide nanoparticles has been spectroscopically well characterized by other groups. [18][19][20][21] According to their results, the oxygen atoms of the carboxylic group chemically bind to the surface metal ions, which can be confirmed by the redshifted C=O stretches. Note that the C=O stretches of the surface coating ligands used in this work, i.e.…”

Polylysine‐Catalyzed Hydrogen Evolution at Mercury Electrodes

“…By analogy, biosynthetic polynucleotides (both homopolymers and copolymers) were successfully used in DNA and RNA electrochemistry [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35], leading to a better understanding of the electrochemical behavior of natural nucleic acids. On the other hand poly(aa)s, which were widely used in biochemical research, were little utilized in electrochemistry of proteins [36,37], and to our knowledge no paper was published about the electroactivity of some amino acid residues in poly(aa)s, such as oxidation at carbon electrodes or reduction at Hg electrodes.…”

D‐Glucuronic Acid Coated Gd(IO3)3·2H2O Nanomaterial as a Potential T1 MRI‐CT Dual Contrast Agent

“…This redshift has already been observed in metal oxide nanoparticles coated with various ligands containing COOH groups. [41][42][43] As each formula unit of the NM contains two water molecules, water stretching and bending absorptions were also strongly observed at 3410 and 1620 cm -1 , respectively.…”
