Non-Solvent Induced Phase Separation (NIPS) for Fabricating High Filtration Efficiency (FE) Polymeric Membranes for Face Mask and Air Filtration Applications

open access: yesMembranes, 2022
Protection against airborne viruses has become very relevant since the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2. Nonwoven face masks along with heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) filters have been used extensively to reduce infection rates; however, some of

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Filtration Property of Monofilament Core–Shell Mesh Fabric Treated Via Tourmaline Hot Coating

open access: yesAUTEX Research Journal, 2019
In this study, woven fabrics with numerous electrostatic charges and desirable charge stability were investigated. A kind of core–shell monofilaments with different melting points between outer and inner layers were applied to wove the fabrics.

Community Masks - from an Emergency Solution to an Innovation Booster for the Textile Industry

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2022
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in shortages of personal protective equipment and medical devices in the initial phase. Agile small and medium-sized enterprises from regional textile industries reacted quickly. They delivered alternative products such as

An Efficient Dual Sampling Algorithm with Hamming Distance Filtration [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Computational Biology, 2018
Abstract Recently, a framework considering ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequences and their RNA secondary structures as pairs has led to new information theoretic perspectives on how the semantics encoded in RNA sequences can be inferred.

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

A context‐dependent modulatory role for eIF6 in acquired resistance to vemurafenib in melanoma

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Acquired resistance to vemurafenib upregulates the translation factor eIF6 in melanoma cells. Silencing eIF6 in resistant cells reduces proliferation and partially restores drug sensitivity, whereas its overexpression increases sensitivity across melanoma lines regardless of BRAF status, via modulation of mTOR, S6K, and MAPK signaling.

Exploring Reusability of Disposable Face Masks: Effects of Disinfection Methods on Filtration Efficiency, Breathability, and Fluid Resistance

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, 2021
To curb the spread of the COVID‐19 virus, the use of face masks such as disposable surgical masks and N95 respirators is being encouraged and even enforced in some countries.

Morse Theory for Filtrations and Efficient Computation of Persistent Homology [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete & Computational Geometry, 2013
Persistent homology is a growing technique in the analyis of large data sets (see \textit{G. Carlsson} [Topology and data, Bull. Am. Math. Soc., New Ser. 46, No. 2, 255--308 (2009; Zbl 1172.62002)]). The authors of this paper propose a method of reducing the complexity of computing persistent homology by reducing the number of cells in the filtered ...
