a-reum: the Korean bojagi reimagined by Hur, So Hyun

“…‘a-reum’ is a cultural design project inspired by traditional Korean art, symbols and motifs. a-reum explores a journey through Korean heritage and a contemporary fashion adaptation, by delving into the intricate world of bojagis (wrapping cloths). The designed bojagis act as a testament to the fusion of traditional motifs curated to encapsulate a distinct visual ‘Korean-ness’ while bridging past and present, tradition and modern style.…”

Synthesis of lead selenide (PbSe) quantum dots for photovoltaic applications by Yang, Shuai

“…PbSeO3 phase was present in X-ray Diffraction (XRD) patterns that suggested the PbSe had low stability due to lack of capping agent. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) results confirmed that the particle size increased with increasing water to surfactant ratio, and UV-vis NIR Absorption Spectra of the PbSe quantum dots showed a red shift also with increasing water to surfactant ratio, the corresponding band gap was more than 1eV, which was larger than that of bulk PbSe.…”

Purification of miraculin from miracle fruit [Synsepalum dulcifium (Schumach. & Thonn.) Daniell] by He, Zuxing

“…Different effects for forward extraction and backward stripping were examined. Crude at pH 8 as the aqueous phase and 100 mM AOT/isooctane as the solvent phase during forward extraction; 0.5 M NaCl solution at pH 11, without isopropanol, as the aqueous phase during backward stripping were the optimal conditions to purify miraculin by the RME system. …”
