Water is an essential element contributing to human life. Evidence shows that only a portion
of the water from sewage/tailings is recovered in the consolidated tailings process. The …

The counterions neutralizing the charges on polyelectrolytes such as DNA or heparin may
dissociate in water and greatly influence the interaction of such polyelectrolytes with …

Abstract AI, ML, and NLP are profoundly altering the way organizations work. With the
increasing influx of data and the development of AI systems to understand it in order to solve …

Oppositely charged polyelectrolytes can undergo an associative phase separation, in a
process known as polymeric complex coacervation. This phenomenon is driven by the …

We developed a new method for coarse-grained simulations of acid–base equilibria in a
system coupled to a reservoir at a given pH and concentration of added salt, that we term the …

The net charge of solvated entities, ranging from polyelectrolytes and biomolecules to
charged nanoparticles and membranes, depends on the local dissociation equilibrium of …

Peptides containing amino acids with ionisable side chains represent a typical example of
weak ampholytes, that is, molecules with multiple titratable acid and base groups, which …

Complexation of oppositely charged macromolecules is essential in several biological
phenomena. Recent reports have demonstrated the importance of DNA local flexibility in …

Multilayer capsules have been of great interest for scientists and medical communities in
multidisciplinary fields of research, such as drug delivery, sensing, biomedicine, theranostics …

The ionization degree, charge density, and conformation of weak polyelectrolytes can be
adjusted through adjusting the pH and ionic strength stimuli. Such polymers thus offer a …
