Application

1-Hexanethiol can be mixed with 4-mercaptophenol to functionalize gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) for use as chemi-resistive sensors. It can also form a protective coating against oxidative reactions and contaminating layers on copper surfaces. It can also be used as a thiol based ligand which finds potential application as a semiconducting material in thin film solar cells.
It is used to tune the electrical characteristics in networked carbon nanotube field-effect transistors. It is also used as a monolayer on copper surfaces to retard surface oxidation during exposure to the environment which can then be desorbed effectively with an annealing step in inert N₂ to provide a clean Cu surface.

General description

1-Hexanethiol is an organothiol that forms a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) on a variety of nanoparticles. It consists of S head group, CH₂alkane chain, and CH₃ terminal group.

Altered expression of NU-T2-BMZ antigen and type VII collagen in basal cell epithelioma.

N Yasaka et al.

Journal of dermatological science, 7(2), 136-141 (1994-04-01)

The cutaneous basement membrane zone (BMZ) is composed of a large number of molecular components. We have recently reported that one of the CD1b monoclonal antibodies (MoAb), NU-T2, reacts to the BMZ of the normal human skin, esophagus and stomach.

Epidermolysis bullosa acquisita (EBA) is an acquired blistering skin disease characterized by the presence of IgG autoantibodies to type VII collagen. EBA autoantibodies recognize four major immunodominant epitopes localized within the amino-terminal, noncollagenous (NC1) domain. In this study, we developed
