Evaluation of a sticky trap (AedesTraP), made from disposable plastic bottles, as a monitoring tool for Aedes aegypti populations

Parasites & Vectors, 2012
Background Dengue virus, which is transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes is the most important emerging viral disease, infecting more than 50 million people annually. Currently used sticky traps are useful tools for monitoring and control of A. aegypti,

Biodegradable 3D‐Printable and Coatable Antifouling Composites for Marine Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Marine biofouling damages submerged surfaces and raises greenhouse gas emissions. Biodegradable antifouling biocomposites were developed by hot‐mixing beeswax, Tween 80, and calcium stearate or stearic acid. Adjusting the component ratio enables processing via hot‐pressing, 3D‐printing, or dip‐coating.

Cost Stickiness and Anti-Cost Stickiness of Non- Manufacturing Costs in Iranian Firms

مطالعات تجربی حسابداری مالی, 2017
Cost stickiness denotes the asymmetric response of costs to sales increasesversus sales decreases. In this paper, we also consider the concept of costanti-stickiness. Cost anti-stickiness happens when the decrease of costs incase of a fall in sales is more than the increase of costs due to an equal rise insales.

HOW ADJUSTMENT COST RELATE WITH STICKINESS COST?

Jurnal Reviu Akuntansi dan Keuangan, 2019
This study aims to analyze stickiness cost and how the adjustment cost affects stickiness cost. Equity intensity is used as a proxy for measuring the adjustment cost. The population of this research is consumer goods company listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2014-2015, there are 24 companies that became the sample of this study.

Current‐Driven Chirality Detection of Magnetic Textures in Cylindrical Nanowires

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Current‐assisted anisotropic magnetoresistance measurements in individual Ni/Au cylindrical nanowires enable detection of vortex chirality near Au segments and selective magnetic reversal in defined wire sections at magnetic fields lower than the propagation field. This approach provides a simple, cost‐effective, and non‐invasive method for probing and

An annotated image dataset of pests on different coloured sticky traps acquired with different imaging devices

Data in Brief
The sticky trap is probably the most cost-effective tool for catching insect pests, but the identification and counting of insects on sticky traps is very labour-intensive.

Advances in 3D Bioprinting for Breast Cancer Modeling: Tumor Microenvironment, Metastasis, and Drug Screening

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional bioprinting transforms breast cancer modeling from simple constructs into spatially organized, multicellular, perfused, and patient‐derived platforms. This review shows how bioinks, cellular composition, architecture, and flow govern tumor behavior and drug response, while revealing why complexity alone is insufficient without ...

NeuroVisio SyncPatch: A Skin‐Conformal Multimodal EMG–Motion Sensing Platform for Quantitative Neuromuscular Rehabilitation and Performance Monitoring

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
NeuroVisio SyncPatch integrates skin‐conformal electromyography (EMG) electrodes with camera‐tracked markers to jointly assess muscle activity and three‐dimensional knee kinematics during rehabilitation. Parallel feedback pathways provide real‐time kinematic guidance during movement and post‐trial neuromuscular feedback.
