Optical fiber based environmental sensors by Huang, Jieyuan

“…The joint fiber end consists of a standard single-mode fiber (SMF) and a multi-mode fiber (MMF) segment with certain length. A tunable laser and an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) were used as a power source and CNTs were deposited at the end of the fiber due to gradient force. …”

Deciphering the mechanisms of cross-presentation for exogenous ROPs through their interaction with cathepsin S by Stephens, AJ

“…<p>Recombinant overlapping peptides (ROPs) are composed of short overlapping peptide sequences formed into one chain encompassing the sequence of a cancer antigen. Each overlapping segment is separated by a cathepsin S cleavage site for processing within dendritic cells to promote antigen cross-presentation and an anti-tumour response. …”

Unified quantum theory of electrochemical kinetics by coupled ion–electron transfer by Bazant, Martin Z.

“…In the limit of large ion transfer energies, the theory predicts Butler–Volmer kinetics of “ion-coupled electron transfer” (ICET), where the charge transfer coefficient and exchange current are connected to microscopic properties of the electrode/electrolyte interface. In the ICET regime, the reductive and oxidative branches of Tafel’s law are predicted to hold over a wide range of overpotentials, bounded by the ion-transfer energies for oxidation and reduction, respectively. …”

The interrelation of EU law with inter se international agreements of the EU member states by Georgaki, K, Eleftheriadis, P

“…Chapter Three then examines the position of EU law within international law, identifying EU law as an autonomous sub-system within public international law, in the sense of a broadly conceived ‘self-contained regime’. Chapter Four moves on to define the notion of ‘conflict’ between EU law and inter se agreements and provides the conceptual framework, within which it is to be grasped. …”

The Emergence of State Sphere in Social Media: A Political Balkanization in Malaysia by Mohamed@Bakar, Badrul Azmier, Yusoff, Moharnrnad Agus, Mohd. Zain, Zawiyah, Efendi, Dori

“…Blogs have transformed news reporting; YouTube has reinvented talent sourcing; and “the trinity” (Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube) have revolutionary changed the rules of the game of regime change. Enabling commoners to be producers and its interactiveness are the two most important characteristics that grant the ordinary citizens to be extra-ordinary. …”
