METHODOLOGY FOR DETERMINING THE FRACTURE RESISTANCE OF AGRI-FOOD PRODUCTS - DESCRIPTION - The invention allows the thermodynamics and kinematics of the fracture process to be studied continuously and simultaneously for a wide variety of foods without limiting the linearity of the mechanical behavior. The methodology allows to construct the Resistance Curve and to determine some fundamental mechanical properties that quantitatively describe the resistance to fracture initiation and propagation...
The reintroduction of a tumor suppressor miRNA into the tumor has been proposed as a new cancer therapy, but the efficiency of this treatment is partially compromised by the low transport efficiency in vivo. Current approaches are mainly based on liposomal, polymeric and viral based vehicles, but still exhibit some toxicity. Exosomes are similar to liposomes, but their biogenesis guarantees excellent biocompatibility and low toxicity. Malignant mesothelioma is sensitive to mir-126 treatment. ...
A system for monitoring an acoustic scene outside a vehicle; the system including: a vehicle with wheels and a trunk, an acoustic sensor disposed in the trunk, a control unit operatively connected to the acoustic sensor, and at least one neural network operatively connected to the control unit, and trained in such a way to correlate the characteristics of an audio signal with types of road surfaces; the control unit is configured in such a way to receive an audio signal detected by the acoust...
La presente invenzione riguarda un biosensore a transistor a effetto di campo (FET) ed un dispositivo che lo comprende per la rilevazione di particelle virali e/o loro frammenti. Formano oggetto dell’invenzione anche l’uso in vitro, un metodo, e un kit comprendente detto biosensore e/o dispositivo per la diagnosi di infezioni virali, nonché un procedimento per la preparazione di un biosensore a transistor a effetto di campo per la rilevazione di particelle virali e/o loro frammenti.
The patent deals with a fast dynamic weighting estimation (FDWE) method, it dynamically estimates the load cell's response faster and more accurately than classical methods. It was developed through the use of a revised analysis of the load cell's dynamic model and a new estimation algorithm.
