Large-scale nanoporous amorphous silica nanostructure is fabricated via a simply etched approach and effective thermal evaporation process. The nanoporous amorphous silica was synthesized by a general and scalable process via etching by metal particles on the silica sheets. In this study, we elucidated how a nanoporous structure was performed and the addition of indium is the key factor that determined the formation of the nanoporous structures. The morphology and the sizes of the porous structure could be tunable by the sizes and the shape of the metal. We discovered a promising optical property in the as-synthesized nanostructures, which have a photoluminescence in an intensive ultraviolet emission as well as a broad visible emission at room temperature.

This paper describes a sol-gel (SG) method for the coating of gold nanoparticles with uniform shells of amorphous silica. The thickness of silica could be conveniently controlled in the range of 10 to 120 nm by increasing the amount of water. Although spherical gold nanoparticles generally have a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) at a wavelength of about 520 nm, a spherical gold core with a silica shell offers a very highly tunable SPR wavelength depending on the thickness of the silica shell.

Ensilication is a novel method of protein thermal stabilisation using silica. It uses a modified sol–gel process which tailor fits a protective silica shell around the protein to enable room temperature storage of biopharmaceuticals.

5-Benzyloxymethyl-NNH2-benzoyl-cytosine (4) is formed from 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine (1) in 80% yield by benzylation and subsequent benzoylation. The benzylation readily takes place with benzyl alcohol and catalytic amounts of hydrochloric acid in tetrahydrothiophen-1.1-dioxide as solvent. — 4 is quantitatively converted in pyridine at room temperature to a toluene soluble mercury (II) salt 5.5 condenses easily with 2.3.5-tribenzoyl-D-ribofuranosyl chloride to give the β-nucleoside 6, no a-anomer being found. — The removal of all protecting groups by catalytic hydrogenation and treatment with sodium methoxide or ammonia leads to cristalline 5-hydroxymethyl cytidine 10 (ca. 60% yields based on 1). — In an analogous manner N-3-β-D-glucosyl-5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine 15 is prepared. — Selective removal of certain of the protecting groups in 6 and 11 yields potentially valuable synthetic intermediates.

In the present investigation, nanocrystalline silica xerogel (NSX) powders were produced from an amorphous silica xerogel (ASX) extracted from sago waste ash. The NSX powders have been calcined at 1200oC, milled and then annealed at temperatures ranging from a room temperature to 1200oC. Their properties (and most notably the size of the particles) have been characterized on the basis of the experimental data obtained using thermal analysis (DSC/TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Infrared and Raman spectroscopy. For the crystalline silica xerogel powders the results show a narrow distribution of the particle sizes centered around an average value of 636  67 nm. The DSC analysis of NSX indicates that in the temperature range from a room temperature to 300oC five distinct stages of the crystallization process take place, which are delimited by the transition temperature of 38oC, 92oC, 129oC, 168oC, and 246oC, respectively. Above 300oC, the crystalline phase is similar to an amorphous silica xerogel (ASX), i.e. cristoballite-like and tridymite-like crystalline silica phases confirmed by the XRD analysis. It has been observed that the characteristic band of cristoballite is strongly dependent on the thermal history and the NSX transforms into a stable form at a temperature of 1200oC. Both the Raman and the FTIR spectra elucidate the bonding system of the constituent atoms and groups (such as Si, O and OH) and throw light on their underlying structure. The obtained results are important for optimization of the parameters of the technological processes for production of nanocrystalline silica glass ceramics used as a host matrix for luminescence materials, each of which requires a specific porosity and structure.

ABSTRACTDiatoms are the most abundant resource of biosilica on Earth. These microalgae are encased in a 3-D amorphous silica “shell” called frustule whose size and morphology is strictly dependent on the diatom species. Naturally nanostructured biosilica from diatoms exhibit unique adsorption and confinement properties useful for delivery of molecules of pharmacological interest.In this work fossil biosilica was used as a carrier for Ophiobolin A (a fungal macrolide with anticancer and antiparasitic properties), with the aim to develop a model system of Ophiobolin A loading / delivery. Ophiobolin A delivery properties of fossil diatoms were investigated by spectophotometric analyses.
