2. Active corrosion protection due to nanostructured thin films

A Swiss SME has developed an active corrosion protection by incorporation of metallic nanoclusters into the hydrocarbon matrix (a-C:H) of thin films so as to adjust the electrochemical potential of the substrate. The obtained anodic or cathodic protection of the material suppresses the corrosion attack. So far, they have established oxidising or reducing 'nanocontacts' for the metals silver, aluminium, ...

12. Characterization of the PHO1 proteins involved in phosphate transport and homeostasis in plants

Inorganic phosphate (Pi) is one of the most limiting nutrients for plant growth. In order to acquire and distribute Pi across the whole plants, ions must be transported first into the cells of the root to be then exported into the xylem vessels for ion delivery to the shoot. Pi loading into the xylem of the root is thus an important step for the plant Pi utilization. We have cloned a gene from the plant ... (read more)
