Effect of chain length on low temperature gold-gold bonding by self assembled monolayers by Ang, X. F., Chen, Z., Wong, Chee C., Wei, J.

“…The tensile strength of thermocompression gold joints formed with prior surface coatings of alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) depends on the chain length (n) of the SAM. Enhancement of bond strength is most significant at n=6 while no improvement can be achieved using octadecanethiol (n=18). …”

Effect of inflammation on apolipoprotein A-1(apoA-1) secretion by intestinal cells. by Yu, Kenneth.

“…In contrast, pro-inflammatory drugs such as lipopolysaccharides and endotoxin appeared to decrease intestinal secretion of apoA-1. These results indicate that aspirin and paracetamol, two of the most widely used medications for fevers and headaches, may have beneficial effects on the metabolism of high-density-lipoproteins(HDL),the so-called" good cholesterol" by increasing the rate of apoA-1 secretion by the intestine. …”

Metaverse for virtual education 1 by Lau, Wynne Chen Yi

“…Several studies have indicated that the use of higher quality VR equipment provides a more immersive experience for its users, however, not all education institutes have the budget to invest in the more expensive and higher quality VR equipment for every one of their students. Hence, this project focuses on the development of a metaverse prototype for applications in virtual education to help educational institutes manage the use of the limited amount of VR equipment. …”
