Different Stationary Phase Selectivities and Morphologies for Intact Protein Separations [PDF]
, 2017 The central dogma of biology proposed that one gene encodes for one protein. We now know that this does not reflect reality. The human body has approximately 20,000 protein-encoding genes; each of these genes can encode more than one protein.

Application and Analysis of an Ionic Liquid Gel in a Soft Robot
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 Due to their light weight, flexibility, and low energy consumption, ionic electroactive polymers have become a hotspot for bionic soft robotics and are ideal materials for the preparation of soft actuators. Because the traditional ionic electroactive polymers, such as ionic polymer‐metal composites (IPMCs), contain water ions, a soft actuator does not ...
