Investigation of the thermostability and activity of biomolecules in bio-friendly deep eutectic solvents
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
The solvent environment of a biomolecule is critical to its optimal performance in various scenarios, including biocatalysis, drug delivery, therapeutics, and biosensing. This dissertation mainly discusses the implementation ...
An evaluation of the need for critically refined purification procedures in fluorescent carbon dot syntheses : the ramifications of the ubiquitous presence of reaction by-products on quenchometric and light harvesting applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Fluorescent carbon dots constitute a novel and intriguing class of nanocarbons that display unique optical properties and can be purportedly generated from virtually any carbon-containing source. For example, the thermal ...
Polyionic nanoclays as tailorable hybrid organic-inorganic platforms
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
We disclose the synthesis, characterization, and application of an imidazolium-based hybrid inorganic-organic layered magnesium phyllo(organo)silicate nanosheets, coined polyionic nanoclays (PINCs), as an emergent class ...
Sustainable chemical approaches to two-dimensional nanosheets and mesoporous platforms and catalysts
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
, there is widespread recognition of the need to adopt cleaner, sustainable practices to enhance the quality and control of commercial products through a knowledge based approach. The goal for the researchers in sustainable chemistry is to meet the objective without...
