"Hot Nanotechnology Papers 2011": First Self-assembly Study of Betulinic acid, a Renewable Nano-sized, 6-6-6-6-5 Pentacyclic Monohydroxy Triterpenic acid

Title of the paper:  First Self-assembly Study of Betulinic acid, a Renewable Nano-sized, 6-6-6-6-5 Pentacyclic Monohydroxy Triterpenic acid

Authors: Braja Gopal Bag and Shib Shankar Dash

University/Institute: Vidyasagar University

Abstracts: Self-assembly of betulinic acid, a renewable nano-sized 6-6-6-6-5 pentacyclic triterpenic acid studied in twenty two organic liquids and alcohol-water mixtures showed that it self-assembled in all the liquids studied affording strong gels in nineteen organic liquids and also in alcohol-water mixtures.  Optical and electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy studies revealed fibrillar networks having fibers of nano- to micro-meter cross sections and micrometer lengths.

Braja  Gopal - After  Bordeaux conference did you got some new joint research programme with them or not?  Can we discusse about the application of this SAM material. 

Best Wishes & regards,

Welcome

Welcome! Nanopaprika was cooked up by Hungarian chemistry PhD student in 2007. The main idea was to create something more personal than the other nano networks already on the Internet. Community is open to everyone from post-doctorial researchers and professors to students everywhere.

There is only one important assumption: you have to be interested in nano!
