Temporal pressure enhanced topical drug delivery through micropore formation by Lio, Daniel Chin Shiuan, Chia, Ruining, Kwek, Milton Sheng Yi, Wiraja, Christian, Madden, Leigh Edward, Chang, Hao, S. Mohideen Abdul Khadir, Wang, Xiaomeng, Becker, David Lawrence, Xu, Chenjie

“…The creation of micropores (~3 μm2) on the epidermal layer through a temporal pressure treatment results in the elevated expression of gap junctions, and reduced expression of occludin tight junctions. A 1 min treatment of 0.28-MPa allows nanoparticles (up to 500 nm) and macromolecules (up to 20 kDa) to reach a depth of 430-μm into the dermal layer. …”

Establishment of optimise strategies in production of recombinant Hepatitis B surface antigen for chip-based antibody detection approach by Tam, Yew Joon

“…The main results drawn showed that the IEC Q Sepharose XL column and optimum conditions of 4 mL sample loading volume, an elution buffer with 1.5 M NaCl concentration at pH 8 with an elution gradient length of 20 column volume and subsequent purification with SEC at a sample volume of 5 mL and a flow rate of 1 mL/min was able to efficiently purify HBsAg. An up-scaled version the established purification strategy comprising of the two techniques further demonstrated adaptability for scale-up operations with a final total PF of 94.82 ± 16.20, HBsAg purity of 95.48% and recovery yield of 78.07%. …”

HiPIMS deposition of VO2 thermochromic coating for enhanced optical properties by Vu, Tuan Duc

“…In chapter 4, a HiPIMS deposition technique for VO2(M) thin film on a commercial material, such as soda-lime glass substrate, was established with a high deposition rate of 5.7 nm/min. The VO2(M) deposited on soda-lime glass exhibits excellent crystallinity and thermochromic properties (highest luminous transmission Tlum ≈ 30.4%, and solar modulation ΔTsol ≈ 12%) in comparison with similarly prepared VO2 on high temperature glass and quartz substrates. …”
