Augmenting Hypothermia Therapy for Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy in Neonates: Localizing Drug Delivery using pH and Temperature Responsive Nanoparticles
DownloadFall 2022
The obstruction of blood flow to regions of an infant brain leads to a reduction of oxygen and essential nutrients, causing what is known as hypoxic-ischemic (HI) damage to that region. Presently the only treatment available for affected neonates is hypothermia: head or whole-body cooling....

CO2 solubility in brine in silica nanopores in relation to geological CO2 sequestration in tight formations: Effect of salinity and pH
Download2021-05-01
Li, Wenhui, Nan, Yiling, You, Qing, Jin, Zhehui
Geological CO2 sequestration during CO2 enhanced oil recovery in tight formations is a technically and economically viable option to alleviate carbon emission. In tight formations, there existsare enormous number of nano-scale pores, which can be filled with connate and injected water. In...

The Behaviour and Interactions of the Silica/Water Interface Studied through Nonlinear Optics
DownloadFall 2020
The chemistry of silica in contact with water is rich and diverse. These two substances are among the most ubiquitous on the surface of the Earth. Yet, despite many investigations into the interactions between silica and water, there is still more to discover. In aqueous solution, the silica...
