Abstract: An example of a flow cell includes a substrate having depressions separated by interstitial regions. First and second primers are immobilized within the depressions. First transposome complexes are immobilized within the depressions, and the first transposome complexes include a first amplification domain. Second transposome complexes are also immobilized within the depressions, and the second transposome complexes include a second amplification domain. Some of the first transposome complexes, or some of the second transposome complexes, or some of both of the first and second transposome complexes include a modification to reduce tagmentation efficiency.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a composition comprising a shell surrounding a core, wherein the core comprises one or more lyophilised microspheres. Also described herein is a method comprising providing one or more lyophilised microspheres; and coating the one or more lyophilised microspheres with a shell under conditions effective to encapsulate the one or more lyophilised microspheres. The present disclosure further relates to a system comprising one or more composition as described herein, and one or more lyophilised cake, wherein the one or more composition and the one or more lyophilised cake are combined under conditions effective to form a rehydration system. Also described herein is a method of controlling release of one or more encapsulated microspheres comprising providing a composition as described herein and mixing the composition with a rehydration solution under a first condition effective to control release of one or more lyophilised microspheres from the composition.

Abstract: Ocular lenses having UV absorbing properties are disclosed. The ocular lens comprises a hydrogel polymer comprising polymerised residues derived from a polymerisable UV absorber of formula (I): U-L-Py??(I) wherein: U is a UV absorbing moiety; L is a hydrophilic non-polyalkylene glycol linker comprising an anionic, a zwitterionic or a saccharide moiety; and Py is an ethylenically unsaturated polymerisable moiety.
