Biochemical Analysis of Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Film Degradation Kinetics of Engineered IsPETase Variants by Zhong-Johnson, En Ze Linda

“…However, little is known about the surface reaction and how biochemical behavior might differ on a 2D solid surface compared to solution phase. Consequently, traditional solution-phase biochemical models, such as Michaelis-Menten, may not be directly applicable to kinetics of these enzymes, as the catalysis is occurring under a heterogeneous phase. …”

A materials science framework for connecting protein stability with surface adsorption and coating applications by Ma, Gamaliel Junren

“…The noncovalent adsorption behavior of protein molecules is governed by various interfacial forces between the protein molecule in solution and the solid surface, as well as by intramolecular forces which determine a protein’s folded structure and solution-phase conformational stability. Although a protein’s conformational stability has been closely linked to its extent of unfolding in the adsorbed state, it remains to be understood how this relationship may be exploited in order to control a protein’s adsorption behavior and adlayer properties to suit specific application needs. …”

Machine learning from quantum chemistry to predict experimental solvent effects on reaction rates by Chung, Yunsie, Green, William H.

“…In this work, we generate a large set of data with the COSMO-RS method for over 28 000 neutral reactions and 295 solvents and train a machine learning model to predict the solvation free energy and solvation enthalpy of activation (ΔΔG‡solv, ΔΔH‡solv) for a solution phase reaction. On unseen reactions, the model achieves mean absolute errors of 0.71 and 1.03 kcal mol−1 for ΔΔG‡solv and ΔΔH‡solv, respectively, relative to the COSMO-RS calculations. …”

Variable selection in parametric and semiparametric models by Lin, Bingqing

“…Since the proposal of the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) (Tibshirani, 1996) and the smoothly clipped absolute deviation (SCAD) method (Fan and Li, 2001), there have been extensive developments on model selection based on penalized log-likelihood and the computational issues of solving these problems in linear models. …”

Electrode modification by diazonium chemistry : studies on the effect of steric bulk on film thickness, and modified activated carbon cloths for energy storage by Subrata, Arnold

“…Among these molecules were single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), which allowed for the formation of GC–TMA–SWCNT and an assessment of the ability of the tethered SWCNTs to function as molecular wires for both solution-phase and SWCNT-bound species. The second part of the thesis puts the focus on the modification of activated carbon cloth (ACC) electrodes for their use in supercapacitors, such as electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs). …”
