Stiff to Soft: A Protein-Based Buffer Layer for Improving the Long-Term Performance of Microneedle Sensors. [PDF]

Adv Mater
To enhance stability and long‐term biocompatibility of wearable microneedle sensors, a crosslinking‐recombination bovine serum albumin material is used as a buffer layer coated on microneedle sensors. This coating layer possesses a unique stiff‐to‐soft transition function balancing the mechanical stiffness desired for puncturing and soft required for ...

Methods for estimating milk production of dairy cows with full cow-calf contact

JDS Communications
Dairy cows with full cow-calf contact can nurse their calves and perform maternal behaviors without hindrance. Owing to the unrestricted suckling, the total milk production of the suckled cows (i.e., machine milk yield [MMY] and milk consumed by the calf)
