Mathematical model for the integrated portable temperature calibrator unit system by Nurfaezah Norahim

“…Two methods explored to solve for the unknown coefficients of the equations are QR factorization and least square method. Among the two methods, the least square method is more practical than QR factorization to be used in the portable calibrator unit for its less complexity Another method explored to prove the reliability of Steinhart-Hart equation is inverse calibration equation.…”

Controlling fibrous capsule formation through long-term down-regulation of collagen type I (COL1A1) expression by nanofiber-mediated siRNA gene silencing by Rujitanaroj, Pim-On, Jao, Brian, Yang, Junghoon, Wang, Feng, Anderson, James M., Wang, Jun, Chew, Sing Yian

“…By encapsulating complexes of COL1A1 siRNA with a transfection reagent (Transit TKO) or the cell penetrating peptides CADY or MPG within the nanofibers (550–650 nm in diameter), a sustained release of siRNA was obtained for at least 28 days (loading efficiency ∼60–67%). Scaffold-mediated transfection significantly enhanced cellular uptake of oligonucleotides and prolonged in vitro gene silencing duration by at least 2–3 times as compared to conventional bolus delivery of siRNA (14 days vs. 5–7 days by bolus delivery). …”
