Abstract: Provided herein are methods for determining the serotype of a virus particle and/or or determining the heterogeneity of a virus particle (e.g., an AAV particle). In other embodiments, the invention provides methods to determine the heterogeneity of AAV particles. In some aspects, the invention provides viral particles (e.g., rAAV particles) with improved stability and/or improved transduction efficiency by increasing the acetylation and/or deamidation of capsid proteins.

Abstract: A method is proposed for machine learning (ML) model alignment. In the method, a first number of samples is generated by a target ML model based on samples selected from a set of samples. A sample comprises a question-answer pair. The set of samples is updated by adding at least a portion of the first number of samples to the set of samples. The target ML model is trained with at least a portion of the updated set of samples. In this way, the ML model self-generalization ability is unlocked to perform alignment with near-zero human supervision.

Abstract: A deflectable catheter is provided with a sheath having a bendable section, a first traction wire and a second traction wire anchored to the bendable section of the sheath, and a driving mechanism configured to pull and release the first/second traction wire, wherein when the driving mechanism pulls either of the first traction wire and the second traction wire to bend the sheath towards the side of the pulled traction wire, the other traction wire is correspondingly released, so that the sheath is bidirectionally bendable at its bendable section in at least two directions of the sheath. In this way, the requirements for interventional treatment of complex lesion sites with vascular distortion and varied vascular opening positions may be fully met, and the frequency of catheter adjustments and replacements by clinical operators can be greatly reduced, thereby facilitating the operation and reducing the risk of complications.

Abstract: A titanium sulfide (TiS) nanomaterial and a composite material thereof for wave absorption are disclosed. The TiS nanomaterial is in a form of dispersed micro-particles which are bulks formed by stacking two-dimensional nano-sheets. The TiS nanomaterial is a bulk formed by stacking two-dimensional nano-sheets, thereby having a laminated structure that improves the wave absorption effect. In addition, experimental results demonstrate that the TiS nanomaterial with a dose of 40 wt % has the most excellent wave absorption performance, with a minimum reflection loss up to ?47.4 dB, an effective absorption bandwidth of 5.9 GHz and an absorption peak frequency of 6.8 GHz, which are superior to those of existing two-dimensional bulk materials. One of reasons for the excellent wave absorption performance of the TiS nanomaterial may be because the laminated micro-morphology of TiS results in the electromagnetic wave refraction loss.

Abstract: A visible-light-photocatalyzed composite light-transmitting concrete contains several bundles of optical fibers, the optical fibers are coated with a protective layer on their outer surface, the protective layer contains a visible light photocatalyst, and the concrete has several gas-permeable pores. Such concrete is prepared by mixing a visible light photocatalyst and a light-transmitting glue, applying the mixture to the surface of optical fibers to form a protective layer, and using optical fibers in the concrete. The resulting concrete has dual properties of light transmittance and photocatalytic oxidation of gas-phase pollutants under visible light irradiation. The visible-light-photocatalyzed composite light-transmitting concrete significantly breaks through the limitation of photocatalytic concrete to light sources, so that gas-phase pollutants can be removed under visible light irradiation through photocatalysis of light-transmitting concrete.

Abstract: A tire direct-pressure shaping and electromagnetic induction heating curing method uses an inner metal mold including large and small segments, a telescoping mechanism, supporting plates attached to the segments, and induction heating coils. A cavity in the middle of the segments is filled of phase change material. The temperature of the mold rises rapidly by the thermal effect of an eddy current generated on the surface of the segments to heat the green tire. When the middle part of the segment is heated to a certain temperature, the phase change material absorbs and stores the excess heat. Therefore, the temperature of the middle part of the segment differs from one of two ends of the segment. Once the tire is cured, the inner mold in the expanded condition and the outer mold support very high pressure for the green tire together.
