Renal toxicity is an important aspect to be assessed when a new drug is tested. To study this toxicity, in vitro cell-based assays are often used. Unfortunately, translating the results of such cell (...)

In liquids such as water or liquid ammonia, solvated electrons exist in isolated form, strongly confined within cavities formed in the solvent and, according to various scientific hypotheses, they can (...)

One strategy for curbing the proliferation of pathogenic viruses is to disrupt their assembly as they multiply in infected cells, in particular with small molecules known as assembly modulators (...)

This document presents a selection of the remarkable results achieved by our users and teams. They allow us to remain optimistic for the future, despite a difficult context linked to the consequences (...)

The use of hydrogen H 2 as a clean energy carrier is one of today's technologically viable avenues 1. Hydrogen can be produced by water photoelectrolysis: an electrolysis reaction using electrodes (...)

Hydrogen (H 2), as an indispensable clean energy vector, can be produced by biomass decomposition powered by solar light (photoreforming). But a high decomposition extent is required to maximize H 2 (...)

Solvent molecules can easily alter the energy of the outermost electrons of an organic solute affecting the coloring of the solution, i. e. solvatochromism. Less obvious is the effect that solvation (...)

The ability to control the magnetic properties of a material by means of an electric field represents a "Holy Grail" for applications in the field of magnetic memories. For this reason, so-called (...)

Understanding the mechanisms of X-ray radiation damage in biological systems is of prime interest in medicine (radioprotection, X-ray therapy...). The soft X rays, with an energy between 100 - 1000 eV (...)

As presented previously , topological insulators are electrically insulating materials, but whose surface (on some atomic layers) is conductive. At the CASSIOPEE beamline, studies on Bi 1-xSb x alloys (...)

The next generation of wearable and stretchable electronics will rely on the development of low-cost, high-performance electronics using organic semiconductor films. Such development requires to (...)
