Mineralized Bionanoparticle Pickering Emulsions
… of mineralized, bionanoparticle-stabilized Pickering emulsions were investigated in this work. Proteins (HSA, BSA, fetuin-A), protein cages (ferritin) and plant viruses (CPMV, TYMV, TMV) were employed to produce functional nanopatterned surfaces and interfaces by means of Pickering emulsions …

Pickering Lumber Company: Archival Processing Project
<p>Founded by W.R. Pickering in 1894, the Pickering Lumber Company had lumber operations in Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, and California. The company practiced cut-and-run policy that dictated the relocation of lumber operations when the company exhausted its timber holdings. The Pickering Lumber …

Equilibrium Conditions of Hydrate-Forming Pickering Emulsions
A key factor in hydrate risk management for an oil-governing system is the stability of the emulsified water with gas hydrate formation. The kinetics of formation of cyclopentane hydrates is investigated in a water-in-oil emulsion using differential scanning calorimetry with the effect of …

The Design, Preparation and Characterisation of Light-Responsive Pickering Emulsions
Light-responsive particle-stabilised (Pickering) emulsions can, in principle, be selectively emulsified or demulsified on-demand through the remote application of light. However, despite their wide-ranging potential in applications such as drug delivery and biphasic catalysis, their rational design …

Post-medieval colonisation in the forests of Bowland, Knaresborough and Pickering
… in detail; those of Bowland, Knaresborough, and Pickering, but they were well spaced across the former county of Yorkshire with their extremities extending virtually from coast to coast. Although their origins were diverse, and they show considerable differences, they were chosen largely on …

Magnetic field directed self-assembly of gold Pickering emulsion for preparing patterned film.
… ordered arrays of the gold nanoparticle Pickering ferrofluid in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) emulsion, in the form of a thin film on glass and silicon substrate. Previously-conducted MSCDS processes lacked the control over the dimensions of the prepared patterns. Here, the static magnetic …

The late glacial and post glacial history of the Vale of Pickering and northern Yorkshire Wolds
… the late Quaternary history of the Vale of Pickering and Northern Wolds in Yorkshire. This involved the critical analysis of part evidence together with the collation and interpretation of data from a variety of sources, some published, some unpublished but mostly from field work.The course …

Special isotopes of the FUGEN nuclear reactor
… the FUGEN nuclear power plant in Japan and the Pickering nuclear power plant in Canada and makes a comparison between them. This comparison is accomplished by modeling the fuel assemblies of both reactors in MCNP and performing depletion calculations on them to calculate the type and quantity of …

Monte Carlo simulations for the purpose of efficiency curve calibration for the Fastscan whole body counter
… were created for both the Darlington and the Pickering Fastscan WBCs, and the simulations were benchmarked against experimental results with good agreement. The Pickering Fastscan was found to have agreement to within ±9%, and the Darlington Fastscan had agreement to within ±11%. Further …

Unique Emulsions based on recombinant Hydrophobins
… sandwiches were used for the formation of Pickering Emulsions. It turned out that the synergistic use of clay and hydrophobin resulted in homogenous, long-term stable and tooth-paste like emulsions. The clay particles improved strikingly the rigidity and elasticity of the self-supporting …

Novel techniques for microencapsulation of probiotic bacteria
… of living cells, we used templates of Pickering emulsions stabilised with latex nanoparticles to fabricate colloidosomes loaded with viable probiotics. Depending on the method of transfer, we have shown that magnetic colloidosomes containing pH-sensitive polyelectrolyte loaded with …

Carbon Nanotubes for the Stabilization of Lipid Nanostructured Particles
… to obtain surfactant-free emulsions also called Pickering (or Ramsden Pickering) emulsions. Natural and synthetic clays, silica nanoparticles and hydrocolloids have been used for this purpose. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have received noteworthy attention due to their unique structural, physical and …
