Application


  • Observation of neutron emission during acoustic cavitation of deuterated titanium powder.: This study explores the novel use of mineral oil as a neutron moderator in experimental setups involving acoustic cavitation, highlighting its unique properties that aid in neutron capture and measurement in nuclear research (Fomitchev-Zamilov, 2024).

  • Air trap and removal on a pressure-driven PDMS-based microfluidic device.: Demonstrating the utility of mineral oil in microfluidic applications, this research focuses on its role in managing air traps in lab-on-a-chip systems, crucial for biomedical and diagnostic device efficiency (Xu et al., 2024).

  • Kinetic Assessment of Kraft and Thermally Upgraded Kraft Papers Aged in Five Alternative Dielectric Fluids.: Investigating the impact of mineral oil and alternative fluids on the aging behavior of kraft paper, this study contributes to better understanding of material durability in electrical insulation systems (Mendez et al., 2024).

Cells respond to signals by regulating gene expression. The relation between the level of input signals and the transcription rate of the gene is called the gene's input function. Because most genes are regulated by more than one signal, the

Na(4)Si(4) and Na(4)Ge(4) are ideal chemical precursors for inorganic clathrate structures, clusters, and nanocrystals. The monoclinic Zintl phases, Na(4)Si(4) and Na(4)Ge(4), contain isolated homo-tetrahedranide [Si(4)](4-) and [Ge(4)](4-) clusters surrounded by alkali metal cations. In this study, a simple scalable route

Deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) is an essential nucleoside kinase critical for the production of nucleotide precursors for DNA synthesis. This enzyme catalyzes the initial conversion of the nucleosides deoxyadenosine (dA), deoxyguanosine (dG), and deoxycytidine (dC) into their monophosphate forms, with subsequent
