Probing the mechanics of aqueous two-phase extraction using large diameter single-walled carbon nanotubes.

Nanotechnology

Turek E, Wasiak T, Stando G, Janas D.
PMID: 30004027
Nanotechnology. 2018 Oct 05;29(40):405704. doi: 10.1088/1361-6528/aad359. Epub 2018 Jul 13.

We have demonstrated that large diameter (1.8 ± 0.4 nm) carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can be separated by means of the aqueous two-phase extraction (ATPE). This rapid and convenient tool has enabled us to isolate fractions of particular CNT diameter...

Willingness to Use Automated Vehicles: Results From a Large and Diverse Sample of U.S. Older Adults.

Gerontology & geriatric medicine

Kadylak T, Cotten SR, Fennell C.
PMID: 34250216

The diffusion of fully automated vehicles (AVs), or self-driving vehicles, is expected to provide many affordances for older adults. If older adults are not willing to use AVs, they will not be able to reap these affordances. Understanding factors...

An Implementation Science Laboratory as One Approach to Whole System Improvement: A Canadian Healthcare Perspective.

International journal of environmental research and public health

Starting with a time-independent Hamiltonian h and an appropriately chosen solution of the von Neumann equation irho;(t)=[h,rho(t)] we construct its binary-Darboux partner h(1)(t) and an exact scattering solution of irho;(1)(t)=[h(1)(t),rho(1)(t)], where h(1)(t) is time dependent and not isospectral to...
