Hydration of Hydrophilic Cloth Facial Coverings Greatly Increases the Filtration Properties for Nanometer and Micrometer-sized Particles

March 8, 2021
Author(s)
Christopher Zangmeister, James Radney, Matthew Staymates, Edward P. Vicenzi, Jamie Weaver
Filtration efficiencies (FE) of natural, synthetic, and blended fabrics were measured as a function of relative humidity (RH) for particles with mobility diameters between 50 nm and 825 nm. Fabrics were equilibrated at 99 % RH, mimicking conditions

Path-integral calculation of the fourth virial coefficient of helium isotopes

March 8, 2021
Author(s)
Giovanni Garberoglio, Allan H. Harvey
We use the path-integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) method and state-of-the-art two-body and three-body potentials to calculate the fourth virial coefficient D(T) of 4He and 3He as a function of temperature from 2.6 K to 2000 K. We derive expressions for the

Towards Quantitative and Standardized Serological and Neutralization Assays for COVID-19

March 8, 2021
Author(s)
Linhua Tian, Elzafir B. Elsheikh, Paul Patrone, Anthony Kearsley, adolfas Gaigalas, Sarah L. Inwood, Sheng Lin-Gibson, Dominic Esposito, Lili Wang
Quantitative and robust serology assays are critical measurements underpinning global COVID-19 response to diagnostic, surveillance, and vaccine development. Here, we report a proof-of-concept approach for the development of quantitative, multiplexed flow

Synthesis, Structural and Sorption Characterization of a Hofmann Compound, Ni(3-Methy-4,4'-bipyridine)[Ni(CN)4]

March 6, 2021
Author(s)
Winnie Wong-Ng, Jeffrey T. Culp, Daniel Siderius, Yu-Sheng Chen, S. Y. G. Wang, Andrew J. Allen, Eric J. Cockayne
Crystal structure of the guest-free Ni(CN)4-based metal organic framework Ni(3-Methy-4,4'-bipyridine)[Ni(CN)4] (nicknamed Ni-BpyMe(A)), was determined to be orthorhombic, Pmma, a= 12.6025(4) Å, b=7.3324(3) Å, c=11.3095(4) Å, V=1045.07 (2) Å3 and Z=2

Single-cell measurement of plasmid copy number and promoter activity

March 5, 2021
Author(s)
Bin Shao, Jayan Rammohan, Daniel Anderson, Nina Alperovich, David J. Ross, Christopher Voigt
We have developed a method to simultaneously count plasmid DNA, RNA transcripts, and protein expression in single living bacteria. From these data, the activity of a promoter in units of RNAP/s can be inferred. This work facilitates the reporting of

Uncertainty Quantification of Atomistic (DFT and MD), Mesoscale (PFM) and Continuum (CALPHAD) Methods and the Impact on Thermodynamic Models of Metals: A Review

March 5, 2021
Author(s)
Gabriel Joshua, Noah Paulson, Thien Duong, Francesca Tavazza, Chandler Becker, Santanu Chaudhuri, Stan Marious
Design of improved metals relies on multi-scale computer simulations to provide thermodynamic properties when experiments are difficult to conduct. In particular, atomistic methods such as Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Molecular Dynamics (MD) have

From single-particle-like to interaction-mediated plasmonic resonances in graphene nanoantennas

March 4, 2021
Author(s)
Marvin M. Muller, Miriam Kosik, Marta Pelc, Garnett W. Bryant, Andres Ayuela, Carsten Rockstuhl, Karolina Slowik
Plasmonic nanostructures attract tremendous attention as they confine electromagnetic fields well below the diffraction limit while simultaneously sustaining extreme local field enhancements. To fully exploit these properties, the identification and

Comparative study of multiwall carbon nanotube nanocomposites by Raman, SEM, and XPS measurement techniques

March 3, 2021
Author(s)
Yanmei Piao, Vipin Tondare, Chelsea S. Davis, Justin Gorham, Elijah Petersen, Jeffrey W. Gilman, Keana Scott, Andras Vladar, Angela R. Hight Walker
Substantial ongoing research efforts are investigating the production of novel composite material enhanced by the incorporation of nanomaterial fillers such as multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). While the addition of MWCNTs have been shown to improve the

Mohamed H. Karray, Neil Otte, Rahul Rai, Farhad Ameri, Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Barry Smith, Dimitris Kiritsis, Chris Will, Rebecca Arista
In recent years there has been a number of promising technical and institutional developments regarding use of ontologies in industry. At the same time, however, most industrial ontology development work remains within the realm of academic research and is

Design, calibration, and application of a cryogenic low-background infrared radiometer for spectral irradiance and radiance measurements from 4 um to 20 um wavelength
