Echinocandins are the newest class of antifungal drugs in clinical use. These agents inhibit β-glucan synthase, which catalyzes the synthesis of β-glucan, an essential component of the fungal cell wall, and have a high ...

Optical nanoantennas have a great potential for enhancing light-matter interactions at the nanometer scale, yet fabrication accuracy and lack of scalability currently limit ultimate antenna performance and applications. ...

La determinació dels nivells de contaminants en el sol és una pràctica de gran importància pels estudis geològics, ja que ens permeten valorar la qualitat que presenta una determinada zona com a resultat de l'activitat ...

The interpretation of a Raman spectrum is based on the identification of its characteristic molecular bands. However, the assignment of the vibrational modes is often compromised by the presence in the spectrum of an intense ...

The greatest advances in the biomedical field would not have been possible without microscopy. The higher the resolution of the image obtained, the more details one can know about the sample. In the last few decades, ...

While super-resolution microscopy has brought a significant improvement in nano-scale imaging of molecular assemblies in biological media, its extension to imaging molecular orientation using fluorescence anisotropy has ...

X-Ray Diffraction is a technique used in materials science to identify the crystalline structures that can appear on the object of interest. In this project, the materials of interest are samples extracted from historical ...

We investigate the feasibility of both one photon and two photon fluorescence excitation using whispering gallery mode microresonators. We report the linear and non linear fluorescence real-time detection of labeled IgG ...
