Developing a portable, high-speed, low-cost desktop photoacoustic tomography imaging system by Kalva, Sandeep Kumar

“…Usually Nd:YAG-OPO laser is bulky, heavy and needs an optical table to deliver non-fluctuating laser beam and it needs external op- tics (reflectors/prisms) to direct the laser beam onto the sample (there are portable OPO lasers from OpoTek, EKSPLA, and various other companies that do not require optical table but they are more expensive than conventional Nd:YAG-OPO lasers). Also, the detecting element of the SUT is placed at orthogonal direction to the laser illumination for deep tissue imaging. …”

Security for automotive electrical/electronic (E/E) architectures by Mundhenk, Philipp

“…Thus, messages can be transmitted priority-based and messages longer than one slot lengths can be transmitted. This allows the implementation of authentication frameworks and increases the available entropy per message through enlargement, supporting encryption efficiently. …”

Blood-stage malaria vaccine candidate RH5.1/Matrix-M in healthy Tanzanian adults and children; an open-label, non-randomised, first-in-human, single-centre, phase 1b trial by Silk, SE, Kalinga, WF, Salkeld, J, Mtaka, IM, Ahmed, S, Milando, F, Diouf, A, Bundi, CK, Balige, N, Hassan, O, Mkindi, CG, Rwezaula, S, Athumani, T, Mswata, S, Lilolime, NS, Simon, B, Msami, H, Mohamed, M, David, DM, Mohammed, L, Nyaulingo, G, Mwalimu, B, Juma, O, Mwamlima, TG, Sasamalo, IA, Mkumbange, RP, Kamage, JJ, Barrett, JR, King, LDW, Hou, MM, Pulido, D, Carnrot, C, Lawrie, AM, Cowan, RE, Nugent, FL, Roberts, R, Cho, J-S, Long, CA, Nielsen, CM, Miura, K, Draper, SJ, Olotu, AI, Minassian, AM

“…We found similar functional quality (ie, GIA per μg RH5-specific IgG) across all age groups and dosing regimens at 14 days after the final vaccination; the concentration of RH5.1-specific polyclonal IgG required to give 50% GIA was 14·3 μg/mL (95% CI 13·4–15·2). 11 children were vaccinated with the delayed third dose regimen and showed the highest median anti-RH5 serum IgG concentration 14 days following the third vaccination (723 μg/mL [IQR 511–1000]), resulting in all 11 who received the full series showing greater than 60% GIA following dilution of total IgG to 2·5 mg/mL (median 88% [IQR 81–94]).…”

Pnictogen-halide semiconductors for photovoltaics by Liu, P

“…The intensity of indoor light sources is approximately three orders of magnitude lower than 1-sun illumination [2, 3]. Crystalline silicon photovoltaics (PVs), which dominate the outdoor PVs industry, are not suitable for indoor light harvesting because of their low bandgap and high dark currents, which limits their performance under indoor illumination. …”

Effects of noise exposure on occupational stress among palm oil mill workers in Malaysia by Roya, Latifi Naeini

“…Finding shows that the mean of PSI among high-exposed group (33.96 (19.10)) is higher than low- exposed group (14.48 (11.61)) and there is a significant different in PSI score level between two groups (t=-5.125, p<0.001). …”

Development of human enterovirus 71 nano calcium phosphate adjuvanted candidate vaccine for parenteral and mucosal delivery by Saeed Ahmed, Mohamed Ibrahim

“…Intramuscular immunization with either nano- or microparticles CaP adsorbed HEV71 killed-virus was able to induce higher viral specific antibodies than the nano-CaP adsorbed vaccine alone. Chitosan encapsulation of the vaccine or a vaccine with nano-CaP induced a high IgA level due to its extended swelling, and reversibility of releasing the vaccine. …”

Coordinated power management for islanded microgrids by Lin, Pengfeng

“…A well-devised high gain observer is adopted to estimate the electrical coupling of a particular DU subsystem with other DUs and the load. Then, rather than coping with the MG as a whole, the DCC is locally designed to offset the estimated coupling and stabilize the internal states of the DU subsystem. …”
