Development and Initial Evaluation of an In‐House Paediatric CT Immobilisation Device
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.Paediatric imaging often requires repeat scans due to motion artefacts, increasing radiation exposure and discomfort. This study developed a cost‐effective in‐house CT immobilisation device, which showed comparable image quality to commercial devices but highlighted the need for improvements in stability and infection control.

Recent Developments in Sustainable Composites for Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs): A Review
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.This review presents the potential of using natural plant fibers and biodegradable polymers as sustainable printed circuit boards (PCBs). This review provides future directions in innovation and sustainable PCBs development. Bio‐composites PCBs are both environmentally friendly and sustainable due to the natural fibres they contain.

On the unlikelihood of specific long range forces in immunologic and enzymatic reactions [PDF]
, 1950 In the past few years, a great many experiments have been performed by Rothen (24, 25) which he has interpreted as suggesting that antigen and antibody, and enzyme and substrate proteins, can react specifically, although separated by distances of ...

Impact of E‐Beam Sterilization on Bioglass Composite Shape Memory Scaffolds
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.Electron beam (E‐beam) sterilization is an attractive alternative to conventional methods (e.g., ethylene oxide) to sterilize medical devices such as scaffolds used to heal bone defects. Herein, the impact of E‐beam sterilization on the properties of “self‐fitting” shape memory polymer (SMP) scaffolds prepared from resorbable polyesters and a bioglass ...

Bio‐Inspired, Zwitterionic Copolymers with Amphiphilic Character
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Zwitterionic copolymers based on arginine‐derived monomers are produced by xanthate‐supported photo‐iniferter reversible‐addition‐fragmentation chain‐transfer polymerization. Experiments in relevant conditions show that the designed (co)polymers hardly interact with biologically relevant proteins and enzymes such as bovine serum albumine (BSA), fetal ...
