• liquids were used [34][35][36]. The d-spacing of the carbon shells was determined from the zoomed images in Figure 5. It was estimated to be ≈0.34 nm, confirming the outer shell to be made of graphite [37][38][39]. A similar analysis was conducted on the nanofibre-like structures formed when Hf was

However, the formation of nanofibres has been reported in [10][30]. Due to Brownian motion [48], some nuclei and crystals escape from the jet flow and agglomerate [43

• nanofibres with well-oriented antibodies anchored by protein A/G. Our study shows that stripping with glycine buffer pH 2.5 allows the nanofibres to be reused as long as protein A/G has been previously anchored, leaving both nanofibre and protein A/G unchanged. On the other hand, we investigated the

• stability of the nylon nanofibres. To achieve this, we analysed any loss of immunocapture ability of well-oriented antibodies anchored both to the nylon nanofibres and to a specialised surface with high protein binding capacity. The nanofibre immunocapture system maintained an unchanged immunocapture

Studies on nanofibre composite mats of PAN/TiO2 have shown large photocatalytic efficiency under ultraviolet light and the potential use of these mats as catalyst in the decomposition of phenol, airborne aromatic compounds and methylene blue [25][26][27][28].
