    Order-Order Phase Transitions Induced by Supercritical Carbon Dioxide in Triblock Copolymer Thin Films

    No full text
    We study the influence of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) on the phase behavior of a cylinder-forming polystyrene-block-polybutadiene-b-polystyrenetriblock copolymer thin film. Solvent annealing with scCO2 can produce patterns with long-range order but these structures become unstable for thin films with small thicknesses. These results are in good agreement with self-consistent mean field calculations, which indicate that a drying transition occurs for thicknesses below the radius of gyration of the molecule.After decompression and solvent extraction, the initially swollen polymer nanostructure suffers a strong reduction in the average domain spacing, which has a deleterious effect on the degree of order in the resulting pattern. Both,experiments and Cahn-Hilliard simulations suggest that during decompression the pattern suffers an order-order instability where the collapse of the lattice constant leads to uncommon patterns with long-range orientational order but structural distortions at small-length scales.Fil: Abate, Anabella Angela.

    Driving multisectoral antimicrobial resistance action in South America: Lessons learned from implementing an enhanced tripartite AMR country self-assessment tool

    No full text
    As part of an innovative Tripartite-EU collaboration Project that supports seven South American countries, a Landscape Analysis Tool (LAT) was developed and implemented to collect data to complement the Tripartite AMR Country Self-Assessment Survey (TrACSS) process. The LAT enables collection of broader and deeper information to guide development of priority One Health activities, and strengthen national action plans to combat antimicrobial resistance. The Project developed the tool, trained a consultant pool in its use, and implemented it in conjunction with multi-sectoral country teams. The main results were seven priority-informed country workplans that proposed specific activities in line with the Strategic Objectives of each country's national action plan. LAT implementation clearly showed that the tool is a strong complement to the TrACSS process and that there can be considerable benefit to the process of collecting additional data layers, especially to strengthen country ownership of AMR-related information and solidifying multisectoral engagement. Countries elsewhere might consider implementing this complementary tool – either once to establish a baseline – or periodically to gain a better ongoing understanding of the situation on the ground
