[EN] In nature, coordinated communication between different entities enables a group to accomplish sophisticated functionalities that go beyond those carried out by individual agents. The possibility of programming and ...

A novel capped silica nanoscopic mesoporous hybrid material for photo-driven cargo release applications has been designed and prepared. The capped system, which shows a zero release, contains a photo-cleavable bulky ...

[EN] In the present review, we would like to cover the most fundamental advances achieved in the design of ordered titanosilicates since the earlier discovery of TS-1 reported by EniChem in the mid-eighties. The invention ...

[ES] El pardeamiento del vino, debido principalmente a la oxidación enzimática y química de los compuestos fenólicos, representa uno de los procesos más temidos que pueden surgir durante la vinificación. En la viticultura, ...

A series of different carbon materials have been obtained by self-assembly method under different conditions in order to study the effect of the nature of carbon precursor, pore forming agent and catalyst concentration on ...

[EN] This work reports a new gated nanodevice for acetylcholine-triggered cargo delivery. We prepared and characterized Janus Au-mesoporous silica nanoparticles functionalized with acetylcholinesterase on the Au face and ...

[EN] Gated community: Peptides anchored to the surface of silica mesoporous supports by a valid procedure act as gatekeepers. In this way, "zero release" supports that selectively deliver the cargo in the presence of a ...

Trapped: Mesoporous silica nanoparticles were loaded with a fluorescent guest and functionalized with octadecyltrimethoxysilane. The alkyl chains interact with paraffins, which build a hydrophobic layer around the particle ...

[EN] A hybrid capped mesoporous material, which was selectively opened in the presence of Tetryl and TNT, has been synthesised and used for the fluorogenic recognition of these nitroaromatic explosives.
