Protocol for engineering poly(ethylene terephthalate) hydrolases via directed evolution using a high-throughput screening assay

STAR Protocols
Summary: Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) hydrolases, which depolymerize PET to its monomers, have gained attention for their potential to facilitate bio-industrial recycling of this waste plastic.

Structure of bottle-brush brushes under good solvent conditions. A molecular dynamics study

, 2011
We report a simulation study for bottle-brush polymers grafted on a rigid backbone. Using a standard coarse-grained bead-spring model extensive molecular dynamics simulations for such macromolecules under good solvent conditions are performed.

Effects of a valved infant-bottle with ergonomic teat on the coordination of sucking, swallowing, and respiration in late-preterm infants. The Safe Oral Feeding randomized Trial

Frontiers in Pediatrics
IntroductionBreastfeeding naturally enables the coordination of sucking, swallowing, and respiration patterns for safe feeding. When breastfeeding is not possible a feeding device that releases milk in response to intra-oral vacuum could potentially ...

Topological Phases on Non-orientable Surfaces: Twisting by Parity Symmetry

, 2016
We discuss (2+1)D topological phases on non-orientable spatial surfaces, such as M\"obius strip, real projective plane and Klein bottle, etc., which are obtained by twisting the parent topological phases by their underlying pairty symmetries through ...

Patient‐Level Barriers and Facilitators to Inpatient Physical Therapy in Adolescents and Young Adults With a Hematological Malignancy: A Qualitative Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite their increased risk for functional impairment resulting from cancer and its treatments, few adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with a hematological malignancy receive the recommended or therapeutic dose of exercise per week during inpatient hospitalizations.
