摘要: Evaluating viral clearance of a sample including a drug of interest is performed via modified viral surrogate nanoparticles that mimic a target live virus equivalent. The nanoparticles include fluorescent materials and a viral surface-mimicking layer that physicochemically mimics the external surface of the target live virus equivalent. One or more capsid proteins of the live virus are bound to the nanoparticle core (for non-enveloped viruses) or incorporated into a lipid bilayer (for enveloped viruses). A process solution is formed by adding the nanoparticles to the sample. The solution is subjected to purification steps to eliminate impurities, forming a product process solution. The product process solution is filtered through a dead-end flow nanofiltration membrane separator configured to bind the fluorescent nanoparticles. A load process solution is filtered as well. Baseline decomposition of the fluorescence intensity measurements from the separate membranes can, upon application of a standard curve indicate the relative nanoparticle concentration and thus the efficacy of the purification steps against the target live virus equivalent.

摘要: In one embodiment, there is provided a dynamic multi-source image reconstruction apparatus. The apparatus includes a first reconstruction stage, a second reconstruction stage, and a refinement stage. The first reconstruction stage is configured to receive an input data set including a group of data frames. Each data frame corresponds to a respective time step. Each data frame includes a number of projection data sets. Each projection data set corresponds to a respective source-detector pair of a stationary multi-source tomography system. The first reconstruction stage is further configured to reconstruct a first intermediate image based, at least in part, on the group of data frames. The second reconstruction stage is configured to receive a selected data frame and to reconstruct a second intermediate image with a constraint of the first intermediate image as prior. The refinement stage is configured to refine the second intermediate image to produce a three-dimensional output image.

摘要: A system for generating a high resolution (HR) computed tomography (CT) image from a low resolution (LR) CT image is described. The system includes a first generative adversarial network (GAN) and a second GAN. The first GAN includes a first generative neural network (G) configured to receive a training LR image dataset and to generate a corresponding estimated HR image dataset, and a first discriminative neural network (DY) configured to compare a training HR image dataset and the estimated HR image dataset. The second GAN includes a second generative neural network (F) configured to receive the training HR image dataset and to generate a corresponding estimated LR image dataset, and a second discriminative neural network (DX) configured to compare the training LR image dataset and the estimated LR image dataset. The system further includes an optimization module configured to determine an optimization function based, at least in part, on at least one of the estimated HR image dataset and/or the estimated LR image dataset. The optimization function contains at least one loss function. The optimization module is further configured to adjust a plurality of neural network parameters associated with at least one of the first GAN and/or the second GAN, to optimize the optimization function.

摘要: A liquid material including a polysaccharide is manufactured by creating a mixture of polysaccharides and an aqueous solvent or an aqueous cosolvent with organic solvents at a temperature at which gelation does not occur. The mixture is also irradiated at this lower temperature, such as with ultrasound waves in combination with stirring and/or bubbling of inert gases. to apply ultrasound to a mixture of. Compared with conventional reactions with low concentration solutions, the product yield and advantageous mechanical properties are significantly increased. Depolymerization (decomposition, disassembly) of polysaccharide in the liquid material does not occur to any substantial degree, and the molecular structure of the polysaccharide is maintained. Further, the liquid material does not gel even when the temperature is raised, and thus, its fluidity is maintained, despite polysaccharides being maintained at a high concentration. The liquid material is applicable to myriad industries, including pharmaceuticals and health foods.

摘要: The electrochemical energy conversion system of the present disclosure includes an anode, a cathode, and an ion exchange membrane including a polymer having an aromatic polymer chain and an alkylated substrate including an alkyl chain, and at least one ionic group. The alkylated substrate is bound to at least one aromatic group in the polymer chain via Friedel-Crafts alkylation of the at least one aromatic group. The alkylation reaction utilizes a haloalkylated tertiary alcohol or a haloalkylated alkene as a precursor. In the presence of an acid catalyst, a carbocation is generated in the precursor which reacts with the aromatic rings of the polymer chain. The at least one ionic group is then replaced with a desired cationic or anionic group using a substitution reaction. The membranes exhibit advantageous stability achieved through a simplified and scalable reaction scheme.

摘要: For a passage text and a corresponding answer text, perform a word-level soft alignment to obtain contextualized passage embeddings and contextualized answer embeddings, and a hidden level soft alignment on the contextualized passage embeddings and the contextualized answer embeddings to obtain a passage embedding matrix. Construct a passage graph of the passage text based on the passage embedding matrix, and apply a bidirectional gated graph neural network to the passage graph until a final state embedding is determined, during which intermediate node embeddings are fused from both incoming and outgoing edges. Obtain a graph-level embedding from the final state embedding, and decode the final state embedding to generate an output sequence word-by-word. Train a machine learning model to generate at least one question corresponding to the passage text and the answer text, by evaluating the output sequence with a hybrid evaluator combining cross-entropy evaluation and reinforcement learning evaluation.
