Contributions To Venominformatics : Sequence-Structure-Function Studies Of Toxins From Marine Cone Snails. Application Of Order-Statistics Filters For Detecting Membrane-Spanning Helices
(2009-07-21)
Venomous animals have evolved a vast array of peptide toxins for prey capture and defense. Nature has evolved the venoms into a huge library of active molecules with high selectivity and affinity, which could be explored ...
Light Scattering Investigations Near The Critical Point In Some Solvophobic Systems And The Design And Analysis Of A Microkelvin Thermostat For Critical Phenomena Studies
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-05-21)
This thesis reports light-scattering experiments and visual investigations close to the critical point, in the solvophobic systems, 3-methylpyridine (3MP) + heavy water (D2O) + sodium bromide (NaBr) and methyl ethyl ketone ...
Graphene And Carbon Nanotubes : Field Induced Doping, Interaction With Nucleobases, Confined Water And Sensors
(2010-12-08)
This thesis presents experimental and related theoretical studies of single layer graphene, bilayer graphene and single walled carbon nanotubes. The thesis is divided into three parts; the first part describes the phonon ...
Preparation, Characterization And Ionic Conductivity Studies On Certain Fast Ionic Conductors
(2011-01-20)
Fast ionic conductors, i.e. materials in which charge transport mainly occurs through the motion of ions, are an important class of materials with immense scope for industrial applications. There are different classes of ...
Studies of Static and Dynamic Multiscaling in Turbulence
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-06-17)
The physics of turbulence is the study of the chaotic and irregular behaviour in driven fluids. It is ubiquitous in cosmic, terrestrial and laboratory environments. To describe the properties of a simple incompressible ...
NMR Investigations Of Oriented Systems : Novel Techniques And Applications
(2011-02-22)
This thesis presents results of novel methodologies applied to oriented systems. Both pure liquid crystalline materials as well as molecules oriented in liquid crystalline matrices have been studied. In particular this ...
Multicarrier Effects In High Pulsed Magnetic Field Transport And Optical Properties Of Mercury Cadmium Telluride
(2011-01-17)
This thesis on multicarrier effects in the magnetotransport and optical properties of Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT or HgCdTe) covers mainly: design, construction and calibration of a 12T 4K and 19T 77K pulsed high magnetic ...
Synthesis, Optical And Photoelectrical Investigations On PbS nano-,micro-structures
(2010-10-21)
The thesis describes the synthesis of PbS nano-, micro-structures by colloidal and hydrothermal techniques. Size and morphology dependent luminescence studies were carried out in detail. Application oriented studies like ...
Generalizations Of The Quantum Search Algorithm
(2010-12-03)
Quantum computation has attracted a great deal of attention from the scientific community in recent years. By using the quantum mechanical phenomena of superposition and entanglement, a quantum computer can solve certain ...
Crystal Structure Of Abrus Precatorius Agglutinin-I (APA-I) : Insights Into The Reduced Toxicity Of APA-I In Relation To Abrin. Formation Of Ordered Nanotubes Through Self Assembly In The Crystal Structures Of Dipeptides Containing α. β-dehydrophenylalanine
(2009-07-22)
Ribosome Inactivating Proteins (RIPs) are protein or glycoprotein toxins that bring about the arrest of protein synthesis by directly interacting with and inactivating the ribosomes. Such toxins are in general, of plant ...
