Conformational design characterization of a truncated diamine oxidase by Razali, Nur Nadia

“…By maintaining the native protein’s pH profile, the mini protein was highly active at 40 °C and stable at pH 7, with a half-life of 80 min at 50 °C. Results from the kinetic studies showed that the Km value for native diamine oxidase was 0.274 mM and 1.3 mM for the mini protein. …”

HiPIMS deposition of VO2 thermochromic coating for enhanced optical properties by Vu, Tuan Duc

“…In chapter 4, a HiPIMS deposition technique for VO2(M) thin film on a commercial material, such as soda-lime glass substrate, was established with a high deposition rate of 5.7 nm/min. The VO2(M) deposited on soda-lime glass exhibits excellent crystallinity and thermochromic properties (highest luminous transmission Tlum ≈ 30.4%, and solar modulation ΔTsol ≈ 12%) in comparison with similarly prepared VO2 on high temperature glass and quartz substrates. …”
