Chemical vapor deposition of poly-p-xylylene in narrow tubes

AIP Advances, 2017
Depositing a film via chemical vapor deposition results in superior conformity compared with other deposition techniques, primarily due to the unique chemical interactions between the surface and the reactive compounds.

SR-LSTM: State Refinement for LSTM Towards Pedestrian Trajectory Prediction [PDF]

Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2019
In crowd scenarios, reliable trajectory prediction of pedestrians requires insightful understanding of their social behaviors. These behaviors have been well investigated by plenty of studies, while it is hard to be fully expressed by hand-craft rules ...

Decreased levels of discomfort in repeatedly handled mice during experimental procedures, assessed by facial expressions

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2023
Mice are the most commonly used laboratory animal, yet there are limited studies which investigate the effects of repeated handling on their welfare and scientific outcomes.

Reduction in Cold Stress in an Innovative Metabolic Cage Housing System Increases Animal Welfare in Laboratory Mice

Animals, 2023
Housing in metabolic cages can induce a pronounced stress response. Metabolic cage systems imply housing mice on metal wire mesh for the collection of urine and feces in addition to monitoring food and water intake.

The ethical justification for the use of animals in biomedical research [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2010
Despite all the benefits, the use of animals in biomedical research is still a subject of debate with respect to its true value. The sensitivity of the community and the interest of scientists who work in the field of laboratory animal science and ...

Non-uniform refinement: adaptive regularization improves single-particle cryo-EM reconstruction

Nature Methods, 2019
Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is widely used to study biological macromolecules that comprise regions with disorder, flexibility or partial occupancy.

Remote Controlled Nociceptive Threshold Testing Systems in Large Animals

Animals, 2020
Nociceptive threshold (NT) testing is widely used for the study of pain and its alleviation. The end point is a normal behavioural response, which may be affected by restraint or unfamiliar surroundings, leading to erroneous data.

Microglia-targeting nanosystems that cooperatively deliver Chinese herbal ingredients alleviate behavioral and cognitive deficits in Alzheimer’s disease model mice

Journal of Nanobiotechnology
The effective treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is challenging because of its complex and controversial pathological mechanisms. Moreover, multiple barriers, such as the blood–brain barrier (BBB), reduce drug delivery efficiency.

Modulation and Refinement of In–N re-Bonding of InGaN Through in Post-Flow During a Refined Temper Fire Treatment Process

IEEE Access, 2020
In this article, we describe a subtle method for modulating and refining the indium-nitrogen (In-N) re-bonding effect of InGaN by employing an In post-flow during temper fire (ΔT = 110°C) treatment. After optimizing the In flow rate and the

Photographic Image Synthesis with Cascaded Refinement Networks [PDF]

IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision, 2017
We present an approach to synthesizing photographic images conditioned on semantic layouts. Given a semantic label map, our approach produces an image with photographic appearance that conforms to the input layout.
