Quantitative fluorescent nanoparticle tracking analysis and nano-flow cytometry enable advanced characterization of single extracellular vesicles. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Extracell Biol
In this study, we aimed to define the standardized operating procedures and reference material for fluorescent characterization of EVs with two commonly used EV analytical platforms—NTA and nFCM. We achieved quantitative fluorescence analyses and evaluated the sensitivity levels of ZetaView and NanoAnalyzer, by utilizing yellow‐green FluoSpheres (FS ...

Human-Inspired Reflex to Autonomously Prevent Slip of Grasped Objects Rotated with a Prosthetic Hand. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Healthc Eng, 2018
Autonomously preventing grasped objects from slipping out of prosthetic hands is an important feature for limb‐absent people since they cannot directly feel the grip force applied to grasped objects. Oftentimes, a satisfactory grip force in one situation will be inadequate in different situations, such as when the object is rotated or transported. Over

ReBiA-Robotic Enabled Biological Automation: 3D Epithelial Tissue Production. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
In vitro tissue models are a valuable tool for regulatory evaluation of drug candidates prior to clinical trials, but challenges such as standardization and cost hinder their adoption. The ReBiA system uses a dual‐arm robot to automate laboratory processes, ensuring consistent quality of tissue models and less costs.

On‐farm response of inbred and hybrid rice cultivars to furrow irrigation

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 115, Issue 6, Page 2900-2911, November/December 2023., 2023
Abstract Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) water management reduces irrigation demand compared to a continuous flood in the drill‐seeded, delayed‐flood rice (Oryza sativa L.) production system, but land preparation is time consuming and labor intensive.

A comparison of ancient deltaic shoreline progradation with modern deltaic progradation rates: Unravelling the temporal structure of the shallow‐marine Blackhawk Formation, Upper Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway, USA

open access: yesBasin Research, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 825-841, April 2023., 2023
Delta progradation rates in the Blackhawk Formation are comparable to rates measured in modern analogues. By measuring the time scale dependence of sedimentation rates, we develop a new source‐to‐sink tool for basin analysis. Abstract Understanding how sedimentary rocks represent time is one of the significant challenges in sedimentology. Sedimentation

Microencapsulation of roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) anthocyanins: Effects of drying conditions on some physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities of spray‐dried powder

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 191-203, January 2022., 2022
Increasing the carrier ratio reduced antioxidant contents and activities. High inlet temperature effectively retained phenolic compounds. High encapsulation efficiency of anthocyanin (above 85%) was obtained at an ACN:MD ratio of 1:100 (w/w). Increasing carrier ratio and inlet temperature resulted in decrease in moisture content, and the solubility of ...

Modified clays reduce leaching of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances from AFFF‐contaminated soils

open access: yesAWWA Water Science, Volume 3, Issue 5, September/October 2021., 2021
Abstract Technologies applicable at a field scale to mitigate soil and groundwater pollution by per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) due to the release of aqueous film‐forming foams are urgently needed. We demonstrate that modified bentonite clays as soil amendments can effectively reduce the leaching of PFAS from impacted soils.

Field evaluation of portable soil water content sensors in a sandy loam

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, Volume 19, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Abstract Ground observations are critical in the validation of soil water content (SWC) estimates from both satellites and land surface models. Portable SWC sensors provide useful information to determine the amount of SWC in the topsoil layer for various applications; however, these probes are not accurate without site‐specific correction.
