Abstract: A high-resolution additive manufacturing system based on a parallel printing method using a spatial light modulator. A method and system for additive manufacturing using a DMD in the laser beam path. The use of a pre-heat laser beam in combination with a build laser beam having a DMD along the build laser beam path.

Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and devices for diagnosing and treating a viral infection in a subject and/or detecting a viral nucleic acid in a sample. In one example, a sample is treated in a first chamber and the sample is flowed into a second chamber, where any pathogenic nucleic acid is detected by oligonucleotides that are specific to the pathogen under test. Further, the oligonucleotides comprise a cleavage site for a restriction enzyme in the second chamber, which cleaves oligonucleotide-pathogenic nucleic acid hybrid resulting in the exposure of an enzyme that was being held by the oligonucleotide to its substrate, which generates a colorimetric and/or another visual readout.

Abstract: Provided herein are compositions, methods, assays, and devices for diagnosing and treating a viral infection in a subject and/or detecting a viral nucleic acid in a sample. In one example, a sample is treated in a first chamber and via a closing or twisting operation, the sample is flowed into a second chamber, where any pathogenic nucleic acid is detected by oligonucleotides that are specific to the pathogen under test. Further, the oligonucleotides comprise are cleavage site for a restriction enzyme in the second chamber, which cleaves oligonucleotide-pathogenic nucleic acid hybrid resulting in the exposure of an enzyme that was being held by the oligonucleotide to its substrate, which generates a colorimetric and/or another visual readout (e.g., foam formation). Further, the methods, device, or kits provided herein can be used to detect SARS-CoV-2 in a saliva sample from a human subject as a rapid in home diagnostic test for COVID-19.

Abstract: A new seedling selection of Syringa reticulata named ‘Summer Storm’ characterized by its consistency, vigorous growth and hardiness.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of Cercis plant named ‘RNI-RCC3’ is disclosed, characterized by distinctive, dark purple foliage that retains its color in heat. Plants are very straight and upright, with exceptional vigor. The new variety is a Cercis, normally used for outdoor ornamental purposes.

Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of Styrax plant named ‘RNI-RIXRED’ is disclosed, characterized by dark, glossy foliage with emerging new growth colored bronze. Flowers bloom twice per year, in spring and again in fall. Petite, white flowers have a shiny quality. The new variety is a Styrax, normally used for outdoor ornamental purposes.
