摘要:
Disclosed herein are multi-layer structures comprising a first composite layer disposed over a second composite layer, wherein the first composite layer contains a first active material dispersed in a first polymer containing an elastomeric polymer and the second composite layer contains a second polymer which may have a second active material dispersed therein, wherein the first active material chemically or physically interacts with at least one toxic chemical and is selected from the group consisting of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), metal oxides, metal hydroxides, zeolites, and combinations thereof, and wherein the active material and the second active material (if present) are the same as or different from each other, and the first polymer and second polymer are the same as or different from each other, subject to the proviso that the first composite layer and the second composite layer compositionally differ from each other in at least one respect.

摘要:
The present invention provides a specific set of gene expression markers from peripheral blood leukocytes that are indicative of a host response to exposure, response, and recovery infectious pathogen infections. The present invention further provides methods for identifying the specific set of gene expression markers, methods of monitoring disease progression and treatment of infectious pathogen infections, methods of prognosing the onset of an infectious pathogen infection, and methods of diagnosing an infectious pathogen infection and identifying the pathogen involved.
摘要:
A system for conducting inhalation studies includes an inhalation exposure chamber and an aerosol delivery line connected to the inhalation exposure chamber. The aerosol delivery line is configured to produce a bi-directional and symmetrical presentation of aerosol to the inhalation exposure chamber. A laminar flow element is configured to create an ante-chamber where complete and turbulent mixing of the aerosol occurs. A radial exhaust and the laminar flow element enable laminar flow of the aerosol through the inhalation exposure chamber.

摘要:
A method is disclosed for reversing fixation-induced cross-linking in tissue specimens that have been preserved for histological examination. The method involves placing the fixed tissue in a liquid under elevated temperature and pressure conditions that are sufficient to reverse the fixation-induced cross-linking, restore antigenicity to proteins, and permit improved molecular and proteomic analysis of the preserved tissue specimen. Methods are also disclosed for processing tissues for histological examination under elevated pressure conditions that enhance the perfusion of liquid reagents into the tissue and reduce overall processing times.

The invention generally relates to a purified inactivated Zika virus (ZIKV), methods for producing the purified inactivated ZIKV, immunogenic compositions and vaccines comprising the purified inactivated ZIKV and methods for the prevention and/or treatment of infection by ZIKV.
摘要:
Quantum dots conjugated to SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein receptor binding domain (RBD) interact with gold nanoparticles bound to angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and thus undergo energy transfer. This energy transfer indicates RBD/ACE binding and can be used to assay for inhibitors thereof. Moreover, these labeled quantum dots were found to undergo endocytosis in cells expressing ACE2.
摘要:
The present invention relates to pathogen detection and identification by use of DNA resequencing microarrays. The present invention also provides resequencing microarray chips for differential diagnosis and serotyping of pathogens present in a biological sample. The present invention further provides methods of detecting the presence and identity of pathogens present in a biological sample.
摘要:
Systems and methods are provided for a software defined optical time-domain reflectometer (SD-OTDR) using high-speed optical transceiver modules. Enabled by the reconfigurable computing resource, an SD-OTDR in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure can realize in-situ diagnostics of optical fiber without adding any overhead to existing systems. In addition, an SD-OTDR in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure can also be used for high-resolution distributed sensing. Additionally, an SD-OTDR in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure can directly map optical reflections at different locations along the length of a fiber to a processing element array in a Field-Programmable Gate Array for real-time in-sensor parallel data processing.
