Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adfm201470045-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>On page 907, a gold‐titanium dioxide (Au/TiO₂) hybrid prepared by L. Fruk and co‐workers using a bifunctional bridging linker is shown on this cover image. The bright yellow spots are gold nanoparticles stabilized by a dopamine‐lipoic acid derivative, which are then bound to titanium dioxide matrix (purple). This hybrid material shows remarkable catalytical activity towards activation of heme containing enzyme upon light irradiation. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg4sr7x8ck" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
