Pyocyanin, a redox-active secondary metabolite produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, serves as a crucial virulence factor. Detection and quantification of pyocyanin can aid early diagnosis of infection. A selective and sensitive molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor was constructed by using a green polymerization technique to deposit an ultrathin polydopamine film on an electrode modified wit

This study considers deployable structures and presents a novel optimization method that aims to improve the stiffness at the fully deployed state. The considered structures consist of curved beams that deploy through buckling when rotated. The optimization aims to maximize the structural tangent stiffness by modifying the shape of the beam elements. To accurately predict the deformation, Finite E

Immunotherapies with antibody-drug-conjugates (ADC) and CAR-T cells, targeted at tumor surface antigens (surfaceome), currently revolutionize clinical oncology. However, target identification warrants a better understanding of the surfaceome and how it is modulated by the tumor microenvironment. Here, we decode the surfaceome and endocytome and its remodeling by hypoxic stress in glioblastoma (GBM

In the current work, we present a topology optimization framework for designing periodic microstructures with viscoplastic constitutive behavior under finite deformation. Materials with tailored macroscopic mechanical properties, i.e. maximum viscoplastic energy absorp- tion and prescribed Poisson's ratio, are designed by performing numerical tests of a single unit cell subjected to periodic bound

A hierarchical multiscale model that couples a region of material described by discrete dislocation plasticity1 to a surrounding region described by conventional crystal plasticity is presented. The coupled model captures size-dependent plasticity phenomena, such as dislocation structuring and formation of geometrically necessary dislocations, that can occur at the micron scale while also capturin

Introduction: A large body of research has established a consensus that racial discrimination in CV screening occurs and persists. Nevertheless, we still know very little about how recruiters look at the CV and how this is connected to the discriminatory patterns. This article examines the way recruiters view and select CVs and how they reason about their CV selection choices, as a first step in u

Although direct migration flows from Sweden to Portugal have been marginal, the actual number of citizens from Sweden living in Portugal continues to increase every year. Many Swedes appear to move to Portugal via a third country. By far the largest number of Swedish citizens permanently residing in Portugal settles on the Algarve or in the Lisbon area, generally close to their compatriots. Those

This paper re-introduces the view on migration causes by the Austrian School of Economics. Austrian economics has not earned its fame in the field of migration, but rather on advocating libertarian economics. Nonetheless Mises outlined a migration model, which can be understood by adding some clarifications by Hayek. Given that the institutional barriers to migration raised by the state are remove
