Influence of Mechanical Stress in a Packaged Frequency-Modulated MEMS Accelerometer
Frequency modulated accelerometers composed of two double-ended tuning fork (DETF) resonators on a differential configuration were characterized for their sensitivity to force applied to their package. Commonly, differential architectures are employed to

Preparation and characterization of renal cell peptides from fetal rats for their antitumor activity
This study aimed to prepare renal cells (RCs) from fetal rats which were digested by enzymes. Candidate peptides RCPs were characterized by capillary HPLC and MS and their bioactivity was predicted using peptideranker. The predicted top 10 bioactive peptides were synthesized.

Linear and nonlinear capacitive coupling of electro-opto-mechanical photonic crystal cavities [PDF]
We fabricate and characterize a microscale silicon electro-opto-mechanical system whose mechanical motion is coupled capacitively to an electrical circuit and optically via radiation pressure to a photonic crystal cavity.

Hysteretic behavior of a belt tensioner: modeling and experimental investigation [PDF]
In this paper we describe the modeling of the hysteretic behavior of belt tensioners. An initial experimental device is composed only of the tensioner by using forcing frequencies, preloads and deflection amplitudes.

Nitric oxide‐forming nitrite reductases in the anaerobic ammonium oxidizer Kuenenia stuttgartiensis
Anammox bacteria remove fixed nitrogen from their environment via anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) with nitrite as electron acceptor and dinitrogen gas as product. The first anammox step is the conversion of nitrite to nitric oxide by nitrite reductase.
