On finitely subadditive outer measures and modularity properties
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2003 Let ν be a finite, finitely subadditive outer measure on P(X). Define ρ (E)=ν (X)−ν (E′) for E⊂X. The measurable sets Sν and Sρ and the set S={E⊂X/ν (E)=ρ (E)} are investigated in general, and in the presence of regularity or modularity assumptions on

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.SpyCatcher‐mi3 nanoparticles displaying RBD‐SD1 from MERS‐CoV, NL140422, and HKU4 elicited robust and cross‐reactive IgG responses in mice. Only MERS‐CoV RBD‐SD1 induced neutralizing antibodies against MERS‐CoV and protected human DPP4 mice from a MERS‐CoV challenge, indicating conserved serologic but limited cross‐neutralizing epitopes.
