Epigenome: A Biomarker or Screening Tool to Evaluate Health Impact of Cumulative Exposure to Chemical and Non-Chemical Stressors

Biosensors, 2016
Current risk assessment practices and toxicity information are hard to utilize for assessing the health impact of combined or cumulative exposure to multiple chemical and non-chemical stressors encountered in the “real world” environment.

Protection and post-fault recovery of large HVDC networks using partitioning and fast-acting DC breakers at strategic locations

The Journal of Engineering, 2019
DC fault protection arrangements for a large multi-terminal HVDC (MTDC) network are proposed where fast-acting DC circuit breakers are only used at strategic locations with the large DC network to be operated interconnected but partitioned into islanded ...

Diagnosis of series DC arc faults - a machine learning approach [PDF]

, 2017
Increasing prevalence of DC sources and loads has resulted in DC distribution being re-considered at a micro-grid level. However, in comparison to AC systems, the lack of a natural zero crossing has traditionally meant that protecting DC systems is ...

Expanding Chemical Space of Nucleic Acid Nanoparticles for Tunable Antiviral‐Like Immunomodulatory Responses and Potent Adjuvant Activity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We introduce a nucleic acid nanoparticle (NANP) platform designed to be rrecognized by the human innate immune system in a regulated manner. By changing chemical composition while maintaining constant architectural parameters, we identify key determinants of immunorecognition enabling the rational design of NANPs with tunable immune activation profiles

Spleen‐Targeting Biomimetic Hybrid Nanocarriers for Systemic Immune Reprogramming in Colitis: RBC Membrane Vesicle‐Fused Lipid Nanoparticles

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A spleen‐targeting hybrid nanoplatform (RBCMV‐LNP‐RP) harnessing erythrophagocytosis mimics senescent red blood cell clearance to achieve spleen‐specific delivery of rapamycin. This biomimetic system enables selective accumulation in splenic macrophages, orchestrating systemic immune reprogramming and promoting mucosal healing in an inflammatory bowel ...
