Photoresist technology, which is used for micro-patterning exploits changes in properties of polymeric materials, such as their solubility or volatility, upon photo-irradiation. This process has greatly benefitted from the knowledge base of organic chemistry and photo-induced organic transformations. The role of chemistry in the development of photoresists is described in this article. 相似文献

This article intervenes in ongoing debates around the democratic potential of new television satire through an analysis of the content and reception of The Thick of It (TTOI). TTOI is popular not only with a notoriously cynical British public, but even more so with the politicians and journalists that are the target of its ridicule. TTOI’s politics are relatively radical, portraying the news media and politicians as forming a social apparatus which is rotten to the core, and thereby offering a challenge to liberal democracy itself. It is deeply ironic, then, that the show has been incorporated by this very apparatus. What does it mean for the show to be adopted so enthusiastically by the system it so aggressively derides, and what can it tell us about satire’s relationship to cynicism, politics, and democracy? 相似文献

In this rejoinder to Bryan Brown and John Reveles, we highlight the facts that (a) sociocultural theories of learning do not
go far enough because they fail to address a number of issues and (b) we require concepts such as power and positionality
to understand science learning.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an inflammatory condition that may run a rapid fatal course and calls for prompt diagnosis. Early intervention with steroids and other immunosuppressive drugs can contain the disease process and favours positive outcome. Ferritin ≥500 ng/ml is a HLH diagnostic criterion. We evaluated the diagnostic potential of admission ferritin, in children with HLH. Pediatric patients of a referral teaching hospital from Feb 2010–Oct 2013 having been investigated for ferritin on admission were included. HLH was confirmed when patients had clinical features and met 5/8 diagnostic criteria of the revised 2004 HLH guidelines. Ferritin was estimated on Cobas e411 by electrochemiluminiscence, with a measuring range of 0.5–2000 ng/ml. Dilutions were made when linearity exceeded and absolute values were reported. 905 on-admission ferritin investigations were reviewed out of which 346 values ≥500 ng/ml. Hyperferritinemia was seen in HLH/MAS (macrophage activation syndrome) [HLH group, median age 4 year 4 month, 59% male] and in systemic lupus erythematosus, sepsis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, impending HLH, haemolytic anemias and malignancy [non-HLH group, median age 4 year 6 month, 60% male]. Of 346, 72 cases of hyperferritinemia were diagnosed with secondary HLH while one patient had primary HLH. 13/73 patients expired. The median ferritin level of the HLH group was significantly higher [6556 (2402–11,734) ng/ml] compared to non-HLH group [median 1175 (943–2000) ng/ml] (p < 0.0001). Receiver operator characteristics curve analysis revealed optimal admission ferritin of 3120 ng/ml as the cut-off with sensitivity of 70% and specificity of 88.9% for HLH diagnosis, exceeding the currently prescribed cut-off of 500 ng/ml. Hyperferritinemia below 3120 ng/ml has higher negative predictive value to rule out secondary HLH on admission in the study population of children predominantly diagnosed with infection associated HLH than the prescribed cut-off as per the 2004 guidelines. This may prove to be beneficial to alert physicians for prompt intervention which considerably decreases mortality in this often fatal condition. 相似文献

Field-free particle focusing in microfluidic plugs 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Particle concentration is a key unit operation in biochemical assays. Although there are many techniques for particle concentration in continuous-phase microfluidics, relatively few are available in multiphase (plug-based) microfluidics. Existing approaches generally require external electric or magnetic fields together with charged or magnetized particles. This paper reports a passive technique for particle concentration in water-in-oil plugs which relies on the interaction between particle sedimentation and the recirculating vortices inherent to plug flow in a cylindrical capillary. This interaction can be quantified using the Shields parameter (θ), a dimensionless ratio of a particle’s drag force to its gravitational force, which scales with plug velocity. Three regimes of particle behavior are identified. When θ is less than the movement threshold (region I), particles sediment to the bottom of the plug where the internal vortices subsequently concentrate the particles at the rear of the plug. We demonstrate highly efficient concentration (∼100%) of 38 μm glass beads in 500 μm diameter plugs traveling at velocities up to 5 mm/s. As θ is increased beyond the movement threshold (region II), particles are suspended in well-defined circulation zones which begin at the rear of the plug. The length of the zone scales linearly with plug velocity, and at sufficiently large θ, it spans the length of the plug (region III). A second effect, attributed to the co-rotating vortices at the rear cap, causes particle aggregation in the cap, regardless of flow velocity. Region I is useful for concentrating/collecting particles, while the latter two are useful for mixing the beads with the solution. Therefore, the two key steps of a bead-based assay, concentration and resuspension, can be achieved simply by changing the plug velocity. By exploiting an interaction of sedimentation and recirculation unique to multiphase flow, this simple technique achieves particle concentration without on-chip components, and could therefore be applied to a range of heterogeneous screening assays in discrete nl plugs. 相似文献
