Spatial Control of Light‐Responsive Proteins and Optogenetics Within Hydrogels via Volumetric Bioprinting

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Spatiotemporal control over cell behavior within bioprinted constructs remains a key challenge in biofabrication. Volumetric bioprinting using multi‐wavelength light sources permits to activate light‐sensitive intracellular proteins as well as optogenetic gene and protein expression circuits in bioprinted cells, in addition to enabling fast printing of

Aggregation‐Controlled Vat Dyeing of Meta‐Aramid Fibers: Mechanistic Insights and Suppression of Surface Dye Deposition

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Supramolecular aggregation governs the interfacial adsorption, diffusion, and fixation of anthraquinone‐based vat dyes in meta‐aramid fibers. By correlating reduction chemistry, aggregate formation, and fiber microstructure, a multiscale mechanism for aggregation‐controlled dyeing is established, providing an effective strategy to suppress surface dye ...

3D‐Printed Corneal Substitutes: Materials, Fabrication, and Preclinical Progress

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Successful clinical translation of 3D‐printed corneal substitutes relies on the interplay between the bioink properties, cellular component, and the fabrication process. These factors influence the critical properties of the construct, including optical transparency, mechanical stability, suture retention, that ultimately govern long‐term stromal ...

The Effects of VAT on Inflation in Iran’s Economy in 2010 [PDF]

پژوهشهای اقتصادی, 2014
The value-added tax (VAT) system has been implemented in more than half of countries in the globe during recent decades. This tax, which is collected from firms’ value-added in various phases of production and distribution, has several advantages such as

Discussion on VAT and "VAT Reform"

International Journal of Global Economics and Management
Value-added tax and business tax have attracted much attention as the two main taxes in China. This article is composed of three parts: the current situation of VAT, the future development trend of VAT and its corresponding reasons, and the improvement process of "replacing business tax with VAT" and its impact on the economy and society.

The Incidence of VAT Evasion

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2020
Who benefits from the evasion of value added taxes (VAT)? Using a reform that enforced VAT on previously non-compliant large retailers in Armenia, we estimate a one-third passthrough of the tax burden on prices. This suggests that pre-enforcement evasion rents were broadly shared with consumers through lower prices.

Durability of Soft Pneumatic Actuators: A Review and Benchmarking Protocol

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Lack of durability is a key challenge hindering the broad scale adoption of soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs) in automation industries. This review provides a comprehensive overview of existing research on SPA durability, introduces a standardized durability benchmarking protocol to consolidate the testing of SPAs, and outlines promising directions for ...

VAT FRAUD PREVENTION

Zeszyty Naukowe Wyższej Szkoły Finansów i Prawa w Bielsku-Białej, 2016
Making a clear distinction between tax fraud and activities related to the so called tax optimisation, appears to be most relevant in the fight against fiscal offences. VAT leaking is not only a problem for Polish state authorities, but also for all countries with value added tax in their fiscal system.
