Abstract:
A method for the large-scale synthesis of a zeolite-templated carbon (ZTC). The method includes the steps of: introducing a bed material comprising a zeolite to a fluidized bed reactor and heating the bed material to a temperature between 550 °C and 800 °C; fluidizing the bed material with a fluidizing gas and maintaining the temperature of the bed material between 550 °C and 800 °C; introducing an organic carbon precursor while fluidizing the zeolite for a period of time such that carbon is deposited on the zeolite by chemical vapor deposition to produce a zeolite-carbon composite; and treating the zeolite-carbon composite with an acid solution such that the zeolite template is dissolved and the ZTC is obtained.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is broadly concerned with the field of cancer immunotherapy. For example, the present invention generally relates to an immune cell comprising a genetically engineered antigen receptor that specifically binds to a target antigen and a genetic disruption agent that reduces or is capable of reducing the expression in the immune cell of two genes that weaken the function of the immune cell.
Abstract:
Provided here are adsorbent compositions containing polyvinyl alcohol-bonded pellets of zeolite templated carbon. Also provided here are methods of producing adsorbent compositions by forming an aqueous mixture containing a binder, water, and zeolite-templated carbon; subjecting the aqueous mixture to a drying process to remove the water and form a dry mixture of the binder and the zeolite-templated carbon, and compacting the dry mixture of the binder and the zeolite- templated carbon to form the binder-bonded pellets of the zeolite templated carbon.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for identifying the predicted type of one or more microorganisms. In one aspect, a system comprises a phase-contrast microscope and a microorganism classification system. The phase-contrast microscope is configured to generate a three-dimensional quantitative phase image of one or more microorganisms. The microorganism classification system is configured to process the three-dimensional quantitative phase image using a neural network to generate a neural network output characterizing the microorganisms, and thereafter identify the predicted type of the microorganisms using the neural network output.

Abstract:
A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) apparatus includes a processor, and a memory storing a program including instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to acquire first data of a subsampled magnetic resonance (MR) image, acquire, based on a learning model using a neural network, first reconstructed data with respect to rows of pixels in a first phase encoding direction of the first data of the subsampled MR image, and obtain a reconstructed image corresponding to the subsampled MR image, using the first reconstructed data.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a primary coil unit of a new type having four coils which are independently controllable and a pickup coil unit having four coils which are independently controllable. There are a proposed power transfer system and a proposed power pickup system which can satisfy standard compatibility and improve the efficiency of wireless power transmission by a power transfer device and a power pickup device. The power transfer device is compatible with various types of conventional power pickup systems and capable of expanding compatibility with a new power pickup system to be developed in future by changing the power transfer magnetic flux pattern. The power pickup device is compatible with various types of conventional power transfer systems and capable of expanding compatibility with a power transfer system to be developed in future. It has been confirmed that if the power transfer device and the power pickup device are combined to construct a single wireless power transfer system, the effects are superimposed so that the system is more robust against a deviation.
Abstract:
Provided are an asset management method and apparatus. The asset management method includes: receiving an input of an investment amount, an investment period, and a plurality of investment goals from an investor; dividing the investment period into a current stage and future stages and receiving market information determined at each of the current and future stages from a market information modeling unit; and determining an investment asset allocation at each of the current and future stages based on the investment amount, the plurality of investment goals, and the market information.
Abstract:
Provided herein are structured catalysts, methods of making structured catalysts, and methods of using structured catalysts for pre-reforming of hydrocarbons. The structured catalysts contain a structured catalyst substrate, a first coating containing cerium-gadolinium oxide; and a second coating containing nickel and cerium-gadolinium oxide.
Abstract:
Methods for determining a genetic identity of a cell, tissue, organ, or organism, based on type, position, and size of every occurrence of at least one repetitive element in the genome of the cell, tissue, organ, or organism. The methods can include using a computer to generate a graphical representation of the genetic identity of the cell, tissue, organ, or organism, and comparing genetic identity at different times/spaces. Also described herein is a computer implemented Universal Genome Information System, which serves as a genome-RE/TRE information management and analysis platform.
