Antithrombotic and Flow Drag‐Reducing Material for Blood‐Contacting Medical Devices
Blood‐contacting medical devices are often associated with shear‐induced and contact activation thrombosis. Superhydrophobic materials have shown promise to reduce flow drag forces, but not contact activation.

Measuring the role of surface chemistry in silicon microphotonics [PDF]
Utilizing a high quality factor (Q~1.5×10^6) optical microresonator to provide sensitivity down to a fractional surface optical loss of alphas[prime]~10^–7, we show that the optical loss within Si microphotonic components can be dramatically altered by ...

Optimization of Biomethane Yield of Xyris capensis Grass Using Oxidative Pretreatment
Biogas production from lignocellulose feedstocks has become an acceptable energy source globally due to their availability and economy. Lignocellulose materials have a complex arrangement that hinders digestion during the process. Therefore, applying the
