摘要:
At least one method and container are described for maintaining a target temperature within the container. The container generally includes a vacuum insulated body; a lid couplable to the vacuum insulated body; a heatsink, coupled to the lid, wherein a portion of the heatsink is positionable within the vacuum insulated body; and at least one thermoelectric cell coupled to the heatsink, wherein the at least one thermoelectric cell is operated to promote the transfer of heat between the inside of the container and the outside of the container to cool the inside of the container or to warm the inside of the container. The container may be arranged so that internal and external portions of the heatsink may be arranged in a decoupled position to reduce heat transfer therebetween.

An engineered Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) vector is provided. In particular, the present disclosure provides methods of treating or preventing a disease such as cancer, or an infectious disease, or methods for eliciting an immune response, with the engineered NDV vector. The engineered NDV vector provided herein is useful as an immunogenic composition, an oncolytic agent, or a vaccine.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to compounds of the formula (I) which are precursor compounds of esters, whereby upon hydrolysis of the precursor compound, an ester compound is released. This ester precursor approach can be useful for applications where controlled release of, for example, ethyl formate, is beneficial.

Toughened polyolefins and methods used to produce toughened polyolefins in presence of a bio-filler. These materials can substitute traditional thermoplastic polyolefins known as TPOs or mineral filled TPOs. Exemplary compositions include a phase based on α-olefin elastomers and the use of biobased fillers. The bio-based filler used, can be a material rich in elemental carbon content. The use of additives is of regular usage for these compositions as they may be related to coupling agents, UV absorbers, light stabilizers, antioxidants, and so forth. These composition offer a remarkable lower density compared to traditional TPOs compositions altogether with bio-based value-performance addition.
摘要:
Biocarbon is presented as an alternative to synthetic carbon black. Master batches having biocarbon for usage in raw plastics and/or the production of composites. Biocarbon is mainly derived from plant biomass, but other sources can be used. A method of producing the master batch: (a) pyrolyzing processed biomass in an oxygen-starved environment to produced biocarbon; (b) comminuting the biocarbon in a reduced oxygen atmosphere; (c) cooling the comminuted biocarbon; (d) mixing the cooled comminuted biocarbon with a carrier resin, thereby producing the master batch.
摘要:
Described are recombinant viral vectors obtained from fowl adenovirus 9 (FAdV-9) and associated methods. The recombinant FAdV-9 vectors may include one or more deletions at the left end and/or right end of the FAdV-9 genome. Optionally, the vectors include one or more exogenous nucleotide sequences, such a sequences encoding for a polypeptide of interest. The recombinant FAdV-9 vectors may be used as a dual delivery vector. Also described is the use of the vectors for generating an immunogenic response in a subject and/or for the prevention of disease.
摘要:
Described are methods and products useful for identifying subjects with Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP). A number of protein antigens secreted into culture filtrate by MAP are identified and binding proteins selective for these antigens are demonstrated to be useful for detecting subjects with MAP infections including subjects with Johne's disease.
摘要:
A green roofing substrate brick comprises a water-permeable fabric box having an open top, and a solidified and non-compressed substrate in the box. The substrate comprises a water storage and drainage medium, and a binder solidifying the water storage and drainage medium.
摘要:
A high performance acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) polymer blend comprising ABS, polylactic acid (PLA), an acrylic copolymer based lubricant and a polymeric chain extender.
摘要:
The present invention relates to synthetic lung surfactant compositions that contain one or more of phospholipase-resistant phospho-glycerol derivatives, phospholipase-resistant phospho-choline derivatives, and surface active proteins or peptides, more preferably a combination of at least two or all three of these materials. Novel phospholipase-resistant phospho-glycerol derivatives, phospholipase-resistant phospho-choline derivatives, and surface active peptides are also disclosed herein. Uses of the surfactant compositions of the present invention to treat endogenous surfactant dysfunctional or deficient lung tissue, to prepare synthetic peptides for use in the surfactant compositions, and to deliver therapeutic agents are also disclosed.
