    摘要: The invention provides a method for fabricating analyzers, the method comprising providing a radiation manipulating material on a first surface of a flexible support; contacting a second surface of the flexible support to a permeable mold, wherein the mold has a first flexible support contact surface and a second surface; and applying negative pressure to the second side of the flexible support to cause the flexible support to conform to the first flexible support contact surface of the mold. Also provided is a system for fabricating crystal analyzers, the system comprising crystal structures reversibly attached to a flexible support; a porous mold reversibly contacting the flexible support, wherein the mold defines a topography; and a negative pressure applied to the flexible support to cause the crystal structures to conform to the topography.

    摘要: Products and methods for redirecting the pathological biochemical process of accumulation of reduced pyridine nucleotides under deleterious hypoxia conditions toward the reduction of the precursor salt and the biosynthesis of biologically compatible, antioxidant noble metal nanoparticles and the simultaneous restoring of the tissue redox state are provided. The products and methods have application in the treatment of hypoxia and hypoxia-related diseases and disorders. Such products and methods are also useful in organ transplantation and recovery, in screening of anti-hypoxia agents, and in detecting elevated levels of the reducing equivalents of the redox state, for example, NADH, NADPH, GSH, and TrxSH2, in cells, tissues, or organs.

    摘要: The invention provides an in situ method for protecting material exposed to molten salt, the method having the steps of supplying metal in a first nonreactive state to the molten salt to create a mixture; measuring a redox state of the mixture; and transforming the metal to a second reactive state when the redox state indicates corrosion of the material is about to occur. Also provided is a system for preventing corrosion of structural alloys in molten salt environments, the system having a vessel defining a void containing the molten salt; a voltammetry sensor inserted into the molten salt; a first cathode inserted into the molten salt; and a first anode inserted into the molten salt, whereby the cathode and anode are in electrical communication with an electrical power source.
