Cap‐oPMN: Oral Inflammatory Load Quantification Using Capillary Microfluidics and Automated Image Processing

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quantifying oral polymorphonuclear neutrophils (oPMNs) is a clinically validated approach for assessing periodontal inflammation. However, current methods, such as manual hemocytometry and flow cytometry, are time‐consuming (>3 h), require invasive sampling, and depend on staining and complex instrumentation, making them unsuitable for point ...

Morphology‐Driven Electromechanical Performance of Graphene‐Based Electrofluids for Emerging Soft Electronic Systems

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Here, two types of electronic components are presented: a strain sensor and a stable resistor. Electrofluids properties are tuned to match these behaviors by selecting the type of filler. We show that the morphology of the filler together with its oxygen content are the key parameters to create electrical and mechanical networks with distinct responses.

Finite Time Non-Ruin Probability Formulae for Erlang Claim Interarrivals and Continuous Interdependent Claim Severities

, 2011
A closed form expression, in terms of some functions which we call exponential Appell polynomials, for the probability of non-ruin of an insurance company, in a finite-time interval is derived, assuming independent, non-identically Erlang distributed claim inter-arrival times, τi ∼ Erlang (gi, λi) , i = 1, 2, . . ., any continuous joint distribution of
