Thermal-disrupting interface mitigates intercellular cohesion loss for accurate topical antibacterial therapy by Hu, Benhui, Berkey, Christopher, Feliciano, Timothy, Chen, Xiaohong, Li, Zhuyun, Chen, Chao, Amini, Shahrouz, Nai, Mui Hoon, Lei, Qun-Li, Ni, Ran, Wang, Juan, Leow, Wan Ru, Pan, Shaowu, Li, Yong-Qiang, Cai, Pingqiang, Miserez, Ali, Li, Shuzhou, Lim, Chwee Teck, Wu, Yun-Long, Odom, Teri W., Dauskardt, Reinhold H., Chen, Xiaodong

“…Bacterial infections remain a leading threat to global health because of the misuse of antibiotics and the rise in drug-resistant pathogens. Although several strategies such as photothermal therapy and magneto-thermal therapy can suppress bacterial infections, excessive heat often damages host cells and lengthens the healing time. …”

Early detection of reduced artemisinin susceptibility in plasmodium falciparum using novel phenotypic indicators by Xiong, Aoli

“…All these tests are limited in their usefulness for a rapid and accurate diagnosis due to their intrinsic disadvantages: clearance rate is measured post-treatment; RSA is time-consuming and labor-intensive; test for existing K13 mutations is not only time consuming but may also miss new resistance-conferring mutations. …”

Post-fire behaviour and resistances of S690 high strength steel welded I-section stub columns by Su, Andi, Jiang, Ke, Liang, Yating, Zhao, Ou

“…The results of the assessments revealed that (i) all three sets of codified ambient temperature slenderness limits for internal and outstand plate elements in compression are generally accurate when used for cross-section classification of S690 high strength steel welded I-section stub columns after exposure to elevated temperatures and (ii) the ambient temperature local buckling design rules (i.e. slenderness limits in combination with effective width methods), as set out in the three considered design standards, are capable of providing accurate and consistent post-fire compression resistance predictions for S690 high strength steel welded I-section stub columns.…”
