Finding fluoride: An azo dye functionalized with tert-butyldimethylsilyl ether has been synthesized and used as a selective chromogenic fluoride sensor in the acetonitrile/water mixtures. The chromogenic response arises ...

[EN] In this work, we demonstrate experimentally the use of an array of gold nanodisks on functionalized silicon for chemosensing purposes. The metallic nanostructures are designed to display a very strong plasmonic resonance ...

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 ...

[ES] En el presente proyecto, mediante la combinación de las tecnologías de impresión 3D y electrospinning, se desarrolla un dispositivo (núcleo o core) de polímero biocompatible, biodegradable y bioabsorbible recubierto ...

[EN] This review highlights how the combination of supramolecular principles and nanoscopic solid structures enables the design of new hybrid sensing ensembles with improved sensitivity and/or selectivity and for the ...

We present an experimental and theoretical characterization of single cigar-shaped nanopores with pH-responsive carboxylic acid and lysine chains functionalized on the pore surface. The nanopore characterization includes ...
