Cationic antimicrobial peptides, such as human [beta]-defensins (HBDs) and LL-37, can rapidly interact with the negatively charged bacterial cell wall and permeabilize it (Ganz 2003; Lee et al.
The molecule contains two negatively charged ions, which was originally regarded as impossible since it defied a nearly 250-year-old chemical law, and has only recently come under new scrutiny.
The drops become superheated and negatively charged, which creates ideal conditions for making nanoproducts, researchers demonstrate October 29 in Nature Communications.
Each of the PLGA nanoparticles is given either a positively charged coating made of chitosan (a biocompatible material normally found in shrimp shells), or a negatively charged coating made of alginate (a biocompatible material normally found in seaweed).
When you comb your hair, the object that loses electrons (your hair) becomes more positively charged, and the object that gains electrons (the comb) becomes more negatively charged. A charged object begins to attract molecules around it.
The method is comprised of attaching a reactive group X--Y to a surface of a pigment; and subsequently displacing Y with an organic substrate N--S--ZM to form a surface-modified pigment having attached X--N--S--ZM; wherein X is a sulfonyl, phosphoryl, or 1,3,5-triazine group; Y is fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine; N is an amine, an imine, a pyridine, or a thiol group; S is substituted or unsubstituted alkyls, aryls, or polymer chains having a molecular weight range from approximately 300-8000; Z is a carboxyl, sulfonyl, phenolic, phosphoryl, ammonium, trimethylammonium, or tri-butylammonium group; and M is a halide, a negatively charged ion, a proton n salt form, or a cation in salt form.
