Decoupling Membrane Electrode Assembly Materials Complexity from Fuel Cell Performance through Image‐Based Multiphase and Multiphysics Modelling

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A high‐resolution image‐based multiphase and multi‐physics modelling framework is developed to decouple structural changes in the membrane electrode assemblies of high‐temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cells. These changes are then digitally combined to show how morphological defects such as membrane pores, catalyst cracks, and phase migration ...

On the emergence of criticality for inhalation-driven particle deposition in the anatomical upper airway [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Inhalation directs air through a defined pathway, initiating from nostrils, moving through the main nasal cavity, past the pharynx and trachea, and culminating in the lungs. Inhaled particles, of a range of sizes, are ferried by this incoming air but are filtered and trapped by upper airway structures to protect the delicate lower respiratory system ...

Lysophosphatidic acid, a growth factor-like lipid, in the saliva

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2002
Lysophosphatidic acid is a multifunctional phospholipid mediator and elicits a variety of biological responses in vitro and in vivo. Evidence is accumulating that lysophosphatidic acid plays important physiological roles in diverse mammalian tissues and ...

Are the demographics for squamous cell cancer in the head and neck changing in the United Kingdom? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is well known to be more common in men than women. Smoking and alcohol are the key risk factors causing such malignancies and there are several publications which have suggested that the prevalence of these diseases ...

Immunostimulatory DNA Tetrahedron‐Based Nanovaccine Combined With Immune Checkpoint PD‐1 Blockade for Boosting Systemic Immune Responses Against Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesAggregate, EarlyView.
This study introduces an immunomodulatory DNA tetrahedral framework nucleic acid‐based nanovaccine tFNA‐CpG. The functionalized nanovaccine shows stable and well‐defined morphological characteristics and can be efficiently taken up by APCs. When combined with the immune checkpoint inhibitor anti‐PD‐1, it notably ameliorated the immunosuppressive ...

Bichir external gills arise via heterochronic shift that accelerates hyoid arch development

open access: yeseLife, 2019
In most vertebrates, pharyngeal arches form in a stereotypic anterior-to-posterior progression. To gain insight into the mechanisms underlying evolutionary changes in pharyngeal arch development, here we investigate embryos and larvae of bichirs. Bichirs

Cake formation in the filtration of associative microgel suspensions

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In this work, we investigate the jamming behavior of associative microgel suspensions used as fluid loss additives in model porous media. We first construct a phase diagram using drying experiments, followed by characterization of the suspensions' rheology and the permeability of the filter cakes at maximum microgel concentration. Microfluidic
