An octopus arm with a flexible structure and no rigid skeleton shows a high NAILS degree of freedom and flexibility.These excellent features are suitable for working in an environment having fragile and unknown-shaped objects.Therefore, a soft robot arm resembling an octopus arm can be useful as a harvesting machine without damaging crops in the ag
Quantitative determination of carbohydrate antigen 153 (CA153) in human serum plays an important role in early diagnosis of breast cancer.In this work, a highly sensitive and selective biosensor for CA153 detection was developed based on a fluorescent resonance energy transfer (FRET) strategy, in which near-infrared (NIR)-excitable upconversion nan
Optical brain imaging (OBI) has the potential for a bright future thanks to its low cost and portability relative to other biomedical imaging modalities.Temporal and spatial resolutions are considered to be the discriminatory features for selection of biomedical imaging equipment.OBI systems, however, still face the bottleneck of limited spatial re
During tumorigenesis, pathways that promote the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) can both facilitate metastasis and endow tumor cells with cancer stem cell properties.To gain a greater understanding of how these properties are interlinked in cancers we used Drosophila epithelial tumor models, Goalie - Trappers - Senior which are driven by
Plithogenic set is an extension of the crisp set, fuzzy set, intuitionistic fuzzy set, and neutrosophic sets, whose elements are characterized by one or more attributes, and each attribute can assume many values.Each attribute has a corresponding degree of appurtenance of the element to the set with respect to the given criteria.In order to obtain
