TORCH (toxoplasmosis, rubella, cytomegalovirus, and herpes simplex virus) screening of small for gestational age and intrauterine growth restricted neonates: efficacy study in a single institute in Korea [PDF]
PurposeRoutine screening for toxoplasmosis, rubella, cytomegalovirus (CMV), and herpes simplex virus (TORCH) in intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and small for gestational age (SGA) neonates has become a common practice.

Programmable Microscale Actuation of Hydrogels With Tunable Response via Printing on Particles
We fabricate microscale hydrogels with precisely tunable phase transition temperatures (23–60 °C) by particle‐templated two‐photon polymerization using chemically tailored inks. Multi‐material printing enables stepwise thermal actuation through sequential volume changes at distinct VPTTs, while pH‐dependent hysteresis drives anisotropic actuation with ...

Active lithium loss (ALL) and capacity fade can be compensated by prelithiation, apparently simple via sacrificing additives e.g., lithium squarates. However, as a cathode additive it ruptures the cathode via gas evolution, while as an electrolyte additive it gets reductively depleted on anode side in course of solid electrolyte interphase (SEI ...

Proton‐coupled electron transfer doping with benzoquinone is applied to p‐dope dense films of semiconducting single‐walled carbon nanotubes. The doping efficiency depends on the pH of the doping solution and the bandgap of the nanotubes. The highest conductivities and power factors are achieved for small‐bandgap nanotubes, remaining stable for over 120
