Abstract: A lighting apparatus includes a rectifier, a 0-10V dimmer converter, a power circuit and a light source. The rectifier for receives an AC power from an AC input to generate a DC current. The TRIAC wall switch is selectively coupled to the AC input. The TRIAC wall switch is operated by a user with an first manual operation to suppress a portion of the AC power from the AC input corresponding to the first manual operation. The 0-10V dimmer converter is selectively coupled to a 0-10V dimmer. The 0-10V dimmer converts a dimmer voltage of the 0-10V dimmer to a dimmer signal corresponding to a second manual operation of the user. The power circuit is coupled to the 0-10V dimmer converter and the rectifier to convert the DC current to a set of driving current. The light source includes multiple LED modules.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides novel computational methods for identifying potential therapeutic peptides as antivirals, and methods of using viral receptor-derived peptides as antivirals. Further, the present disclosure provides methods of using angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)-derived peptides as therapeutic treatments for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-caused coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
