Use of Serial Planar Linkages for an Augmented R-CUBE Mechanism with Six Degrees of Freedom
The present study shows the augmentation of the three Degrees of Freedom (DoF) translational R-CUBE into a six-DoF mechanism. To increase its number of DoF, each leg has their distal linkage modified to fully ...

Open AccessClinical-grade cryopreserved doxorubicin-loaded platelets: role of cancer cells and platelet extracellular vesicles activation loop
Human platelets (PLT) and PLT-extracellular vesicles (PEV) released upon thrombin activation express receptors that interact with tumour cells and, thus, can serve as a delivery platform of anti-cancer agents....

Improved upper bounds on acyclic edge colorings
An acyclic edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring such that every cycle contains edges of at least three distinct colors. The acyclic chromatic index of a graph G, denoted by a′(G), is the minimum num...

Isolation and characterization of two hydroperoxide lyase genes from grape berries
C6 compounds are the major fraction of the volatile profiles of grape berries, contributing the typical ‘green’ aroma to the grape and wine. Hydroperoxide lyase (HPL) catalyzes the cleavage of fatty acid hydro...
