Heat capacities and thermodynamic functions of neodymia and samaria doped ceria
(Elsevier, 2021)
Doped ceria materials are ionic conductors currently under investigation for use in solid oxide fuel cells, catalysts, and other applications. We measured the heat capacity of several doped ceria samples from 1.8 K to 300 ...
Beyond COVID-19: Do biothermodynamic properties allow predicting the future evolution of SARS-CoV-2 variants?
(Elsevier, 2022)
During the COVID-19 pandemic, many statistical and epidemiological studies have been published, trying to predict the future development of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. However, it would be beneficial to have a specific, ...
XBB.1.5 Kraken cracked: Gibbs energies of binding and biosynthesis of the XBB.1.5 variant of SARS-CoV-2
(Elsevier, 2023)
The SARS-CoV-2 Hydra with many heads (variants) has been causing the COVID-19 pandemic for 3 years. The appearance of every new head (SARS-CoV-2 variant) causes a new pandemic wave. The last in the series is the XBB.1.5 ...
The effect of gamma irradiation on the synthesis, microbiological sterility, and improvement of properties of PMMA-Al2O3 composite used in dental prosthesis manufacturing
(Radiation Physics and Chemistry, 2023)
Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is a polymer material widely used in dental applications due to its excellent biocompatibility, stable physicochemical properties, easy manipulation, and low cost. The combination of biocompatible ...
Strain wars 4 - Darwinian evolution through Gibbs’ glasses: Gibbs energies of binding and growth explain evolution of SARS-CoV-2 from Hu-1 to BA.2
(Elsevier, 2022)
All processes in nature are driven by negative Gibbs energy. Gibbs energy is used by various viruses and their strains to hijack host cell metabolic machinery. The analysis was made by using the atom counting method to ...
Quantifying oxygen vacancies in neodymium and samarium doped ceria from heat capacity measurements
(Elsevier, 2020)
It has been previously reported in the literature that the vacancy concentration in a solid can be estimated using the linear term derived from low temperature heat capacity measurements. This paper investigates how such ...
Why doesn’t Ebola virus cause pandemics like SARS-CoV-2?
(Elsevier, 2022)
Ebola virus is among the most dangerous, contagious and deadly etiological causes of viral diseases. However, Ebola virus has never extensively spread in human population and never have led to a pandemic. Why? The mechanistic ...
Strain wars 5: Gibbs energies of binding of BA.1 through BA.4 variants of SARS-CoV-2
(Elsevier, 2022)
This paper reports, for the first time, standard Gibbs energies of binding of the BA.1, BA.2, BA.3, BA.2.13, BA.2.12.1 and BA.4 Omicron variants of SARS-CoV-2, to the Human ACE2 receptor. Variants BA.1 through BA.3 exhibit ...
Proteomic analysis of pyridoxal oxime derivatives treated Listeria monocytogenes reveals down-regulation of the main virulence factor, Listeriolysin O
(Elsevier, 2020)
Proteomic analysis of foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes after treatment with three disinfectants based on ammonium salts of pyridoxal oxime (POD) reveal perturbation of cellular processes. These inhibitors caused ...
Influence of Perovskite Interface Morphology on the Photon Management in Perovskite/Silicon Tandem Solar Cells
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2020)
Perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells are considered as one of the cost-effective solutions for determining high energy conversion efficiencies. Efficient photon management allows improving light incoupling in solar cells ...
