This paper describes a technique that utilizes the osmotic properties of hydrogels to passively draw fluid through a membrane and pass it along to a microfluidic network for sensing purposes. This technique may enable non-invasive collection and manipulation of sweat for biosensing. To demonstrate the concep
DetailsMethods: We conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blind trial involving children 3 months to 4 years of age with acute gastroenteritis who presented to one of 10 U.S. pediatric emergency departments. Participants received a 5-day course of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG at a dose of 1×10 10 colony-forming units twice daily or …

DetailsThe results discussed above clearly show that entropy-stabilized oxides with medium entropy were formed for ( (Mg 1/3 Co 1/3 Ni 1/3) 1-x Zn x )O when x is between 0.292 and 0.388. A single phase cannot be formed at sintering temperatures up to 1350 °C when x = 0.442 and 0.490. Previous study showed that a single phase did not formed at ...

DetailsLiquid metal actuator driven by electrochemical manipulation of surface tension. L. Russell James P. Wissman C. Majidi. Materials Science. 2017. We examine the electrocapillary properties of a fluidic actuator composed of a liquid metal droplet that is submerged in electrolytic solution and attached to an elastic beam.

DetailsThe 60% Mn concentration presents a single sharp upturn in moment consistent with an FM T C ≈ 160 K. The 40% Mn composition has a slightly lower critical temperature than the 20% and 60% compositions and a more gradual transition region as would be expected for competing AFM and FM phases.
DetailsLightweight and flexible printed circuit boards (PCBs) have been produced by micro-patterning metal on paper substrates, as reported by Siegel et al. on page 28.Paper-based electronic devices can be folded and creased repeatedly, shaped to form three-dimensional structures, integrated with paper-based microfluidic devices, and disposed of by flame …
Detailswhere, * denotes the active site on the surface. On the rutile (110) surface this is the coordinatively unsaturated (cus) site as shown in Figure 1, which also illustrates the reaction intermediates.Assuming this pathway, the OER is limited by the scaling relation between the binding energy of the *OH and *OOH intermediates (G ads (OOH)≈G ads …
DetailsThe oxidation behavior of (Hf 0.2 Zr 0.2 Ta 0.2 Nb 0.2 Ti 0.2)C high-entropy ceramics (HHC-1) was studied at 1073–1473 K in air for the first time.The results showed that the oxidation behavior of HHC-1 samples followed a parabolic rate law, in which the oxidation rate first increased with the temperatures increasing from 1073 to 1273 K and …
