  • Patent number: 10973775
    Abstract: Bacteria-responsive core-shell nanofibers and a process for the preparation thereof are described. The nanofibers release of an antibacterial agent in response to the presence of bacteria. The core of the nanofiber comprises a biocompatible polymer together with an antibacterial agent such as a quaternary ammonium compound, for example benzyl dimethyl tetradecyl ammonium chloride (BTAC). Surrounding the core is shell comprised of a bacterially degradable polymer, which is susceptible to break-down by bacterial enzymes such as lipase, or to acidic pH conditions. The shell may comprise, for example, polycaprolactone (PCL) and poly(ethylene succinate) (PES). The nanofibers may be incorporated into wound dressings.

  • Patent number: 10975260
    Abstract: A modified surface with at least one cationic center and at least one compound. The surface can be modified by various methods. The result of these methods is that the cationic center and the compound are connected to the modified surface. The cationic center and the compound are connected to the modified surface so that both of the cationic center and the compound are available upon the modified surface to react with other chemicals or microorganisms that come into contact with or near to the modified surface. The availability of the cationic center and the compound cause the modified surface to have a functionality that it would not otherwise have. The number of molecules of the cationic center relative to the number of molecules of the at least one compound may influence the functionality of the modified surface.

  • Patent number: 10957872
    Abstract: An electrode and an organic electroluminescent device using the same are provided. The electrode comprises a first conductive layer (1), a second conductive layer (2) and a third conductive layer (3) that are arranged in a stacked manner The second conductive layer (2) has a single-layer structure or multi-layer composite structure formed by at least one of alkali earth metal, alkali earth metal alloy and alkali earth metal compound, and the third layer (3) has a work function of less than 3 eV. The respective conductive layers of the electrode can compensate with respect to the defects in one another, thereby making the performance of the electrode more stable. In the meantime, because the work function of the third conductive layer (3) is less than 3 eV, the barrier of organics-metal interface can be effectively reduced for guiding the electron injection, thereby increasing the light-emitting efficiency of device.
