Hydrophobically assisted switching phase (HASP) synthesis is a concept that allows the choice between the advantages of solid-supported chemistry and those of solution-phase synthesis. Starting from the examination of adsorption and desorption properties of hydrophobic molecules to and from reversed-phase

Patients with the autosomal recessive form of rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (AR-RCDP) and other generalized peroxisomal disorders are deficient in the incorporation of fatty alcohol into plasmalogen lipids. To determine whether these patients accumulated fatty alcohol, we measured their plasma fatty

We investigate the phase behavior of surface-functionalized silica colloids at both the molecular and macroscopic levels. This investigation allows us to relate collective properties such as aggregation, gelation, and aging directly to molecular interfacial behavior. By using surface-specific vibrational spectroscopy

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) due to their unique structural and physicochemical properties, have been proposed as delivery systems for a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic agents. However, SWNTs have proven difficult to solubilize in aqueous solution, limiting their use in
