The Zero Locus of Symmetric Polynomials

Topping, Heather

Homogeneous polynomials $f_1, f_2, \dots, f_n$ form a regular sequence in the polynomial ring $\mathbb{C}[x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n]$ when the reduced affine variety of these polynomials only contains the origin. In this report, ...

Zeta Potential of Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) in Contact with Aqueous Electrolyte–Surfactant Solutions

Khademi, Mahmoud; Wang, Wuchun; Reitinger, Wolfgang; Barz, Dominik P. J. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2017-10-10)

The addition of surfactants can considerably impact the electrical characteristics of an interface, and the zeta potential measurement is the standard method for its characterization. In this article, a comprehensive study ...

Zinc exposure increases resistance to polymyxins in Pseudomonas aeruginosa through activation of the arn operon and two-component regulatory systems

Giovannitti, Oliver

Metal cations have long been known to play a role in driving antibiotic resistance. The metal cation Zn2+ has previously been shown to drive antibiotic resistance in various bacterial species, including the opportunistic ...

A Zinc(II) Benzamidinate-N-oxide Complex as an Aggregation-Induced Emission Material: toward Solution-Processable White Organic Light-Emitting Devices

Cibian, Mihaela; Shahalizad, Afshin; Souissi, Fathi; Castro, Jessica; Ferreira, Janaina; Chartrand, Daniel; Nunzi, JM; Hanan, Garry (Wiley, 2018-10-11)

The synthesis, characterization, photophysical and redox properties of a dinuclear complex Zn2(AMOX)4 (AMOX = 4-bromo N,N’-diphenylbenzamidinate-N-oxide) are highlighted. This compound is a first example of a novel class ...
