Cooling and thermometry of atomic Fermi gases

, 2016
We review the status of cooling techniques aimed at achieving the deepest quantum degeneracy for atomic Fermi gases. We first discuss some physical motivations, providing a quantitative assessment of the need for deep quantum degeneracy in relevant ...

Engineering Murine Cross‐Reactivity Into an Affibody to Human Death Receptor 5

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Interspecies cross‐reactive protein therapeutics that target conserved epitopes across species are critical for translational research. The present study showcases the engineering of an affibody molecule, originally discovered for binding to human death receptor 5 (hDR5) with 94 nM affinity, to simultaneously acquire cross‐reactivity to murine

Thermodynamic Evaluation of Dual Substrate Growth

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Various C₁–C₂ compounds are increasingly available through electrochemical reduction of CO2. Although not always suitable as a sole substrate, these compounds can supplement a primary substrate like glucose to enhance microbial growth. Yet, the mechanisms underlying the effects of dual substrate consumption on growth rate and growth yield ...

A Comprehensive Review of the Key Factors Affecting Biogas Production From Anaerobic Digestion of Organic Waste

CleanMat, EarlyView.
Efficient conversion of organic waste to biogas depends on the coordinated optimization of feedstock composition, pretreatment, operational parameters, reactor design, and microbial community dynamics. This review highlights how these interacting factors improve methane yield and process stability, advancing anaerobic digestion as a practical pathway ...

Bridging the gap in pre-market immunological evaluation: a progressive strategy for recombinant collagen medical devices

Collagen and Leather
Conventional immunotoxicological approaches are often insufficient to comprehensively elucidate the complex immune responses that may arise during the degradation, metabolite generation, and tissue integration of protein-based medical devices. To address

Smartphone-based pathogen diagnosis in urinary sepsis patients. [PDF]

, 2018
BackgroundThere is an urgent need for rapid, sensitive, and affordable diagnostics for microbial infections at the point-of-care. Although a number of innovative systems have been reported that transform mobile phones into potential diagnostic tools, the

Sidelining Mitigation: Climate Delay Discourses Among Municipal Legislators in Southeastern Brazil

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how municipal legislators frame climate mitigation and how these framings shift responsibility, narrow the perceived scope of municipal authority, and reduce the urgency or feasibility of local action. We analyzed 31 interviews with city councilors serving on Permanent Environmental Committees across municipalities in ...

Ranking of antiseizure medications in a panel of focal seizure models predicts their comparative efficacy in clinical add‐on trials in drug‐resistant focal epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Most antiseizure medications (ASMs) have been discovered by testing in animal models, which are generally thought to predict antiseizure activity in patients. However, it is not known whether any of these models (or a combination of models) can predict whether a novel ASM exhibits higher clinical efficacy in focal drug‐resistant ...

Predictive analysis of B-cell antigenic epitopes in phospholipase D toxins from Loxosceles spiders

Toxicon: X
The Phospholipase D (PLD) toxin family, a major component of the Loxosceles spider venom, is a valuable biotechnological tool for developing antivenom treatment and diagnostic assays to overcome and prevent loxoscelism.

Intra- and interspecies transmission of H7N7 highly pathogenic avian influenza virus during the avian influenza epidemic in the Netherlands in 2003 [PDF]

The poultry epidemic of H7N7 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus in the Netherlands in 2003 was probably the result of the introduction of an H7N7 low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) virus (by interspecies transmission from wild birds) and ...
