Analyzing Pentaerythritol Stearate Homologs with NMR Spectroscopy

A pentaerythritol stearate sample with subscribfy_subscription_product unknown composition was analyzed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy (i.e., 1H NMR, quantitative 13C NMR, DEPT135, 1H-1H COSY, 1H-1H NOESY, 1H-13C HSQC and 1H-13C HMBC).The results indicated that the sample contained mainly monopentaerythritol tetrastearate, but Jan

On the pathway of cellular uptake: new insight into the interaction between the cell membrane and very small nanoparticles

For any living cell the exchange with its environment is vital.Therefore, many different kinds of cargo are able to enter cells via energy-dependent or -independent routes.Nanoparticles are no exemption.It is known that small silica nanoparticles with a diameter below 50 nm are taken up by cells and that their uptake exerts pronounced toxic effects
