    A preliminary study found high-performance cement mortar, geopolymer mortar, and magnesium phosphate cement mortar (MPCM) have the potential as new fire-resistant materials. In this study, foam was added to these three fire-resistant materials to further improve their rheological, mechanical, and fire-resistant performance and reduce costs. Systematic design and experimental programs were conducted. The results showed the addition of foam enhanced workability, adhesiveness, and fire resistance, allowing the materials to withstand higher temperatures and further delay heat transfer. A mixture of 70% MPCM and 30% foam was identified as the optimum design, which could withstand 1000 °C with low heat transfer rates

    A Conformation-Sensitive Monoclonal Antibody against the A2 Domain of von Willebrand Factor Reduces Its Proteolysis by ADAMTS13

    The size of von Willebrand factor (VWF), controlled by ADAMTS13-dependent proteolysis, is associated with its hemostatic activity. Many factors regulate ADAMTS13-dependent VWF proteolysis through their interaction with VWF. These include coagulation factor VIII, platelet glycoprotein 1bα, and heparin sulfate, which accelerate the cleavage of VWF. Conversely, thrombospondin-1 decreases the rate of VWF proteolysis by ADAMTS13 by competing with ADAMTS13 for the A3 domain of VWF. To investigate whether murine monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against human VWF affect the susceptibility of VWF to proteolysis by ADAMTS13 in vitro, eight mAbs to different domains of human VWF were used to evaluate the effects on VWF cleavage by ADAMTS13 under fluid shear stress and static/denaturing conditions. Additionally, the epitope of anti-VWF mAb (SZ34) was mapped using recombinant proteins in combination with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western blot analysis. The results indicate that mAb SZ34 inhibited proteolytic cleavage of VWF by ADAMTS13 in a concentration-dependent manner under fluid shear stress, but not under static/denaturing conditions. The binding epitope of SZ34 mAb is located between A1555 and G1595 in the central A2 domain of VWF. These data show that an anti-VWF mAb against the VWF-A2 domain (A1555-G1595) reduces the proteolytic cleavage of VWF by ADAMTS13 under shear stress, suggesting the role of this region in interaction with ADAMTS13

    Feasibility Study on Novel Fire-Resistant Coating Materials

    Get PDF
    Over the last few decades, wildfires in the United States have caused severe damage and property losses. As more houses are being built in areas prone to wildfire, enhancing the fire resistance of structures and buildings is critical and in great need. This paper presents a preliminary study to explore and develop some innovative surface-bonded fire-resistant coating materials for this purpose. The feasibility of these materials [i.e., high performance cement mortar (HPCM), geopolymer mortar (GPM), and magnesium phosphate cement mortar (MPCM)] was assessed considering the workability, adhesion to structure surface, and fire property. The Taguchi-based mix designs of HPCM, GPM, and MPCM were first evaluated and optimized by using Minitab Response Optimizer. The MATLAB image analysis was used to evaluate the slip resistance of the three optimum mix designs. The cohesiveness, adhesiveness, and fire resistance of the three coating materials were analyzed and compared. The spray area expansion ratio of MPCM was approximately 1.7 times of HPCM and GPM, indicating that HPCM and GPM had better slip resistance than MPCM. The HPCM had the best cohesiveness and adhesiveness with its buildup thickness 0.5 and 1.0 mm higher, and its rebound about 5% and 10% lower than GPM and MPCM, respectively. The fire-resistance test including observation of color change and cracking indicated that MPCM could withstand temperatures as high as 1,000°C, and MPCM had better fire resistance than HPCM and GPM

    Evaluation of Multiple Stress-Creep Recovery Test on Alaskan Asphalt Binders

    No full text
    Although the multiple stress creep recovery (MSCR) test has shown its superiority in predicting rutting resistance of asphalt binders, concerns have been raised regarding the testing protocol and procedures. To evaluate the rutting resistance and investigate the suitability of the standard MSCR test method for Alaskan binders, nine typical Alaskan asphalt binders from three different suppliers were collected from paving projects and tested using MSCR tests with four different testing protocols and procedures. The results indicated that the modified binders had better rutting resistance than the neat binder regardless of performance grade (PG). The nonlinear stress limits of most modified binders were all found to be less than 3.2 kPa, which indicated that the stress level of 3.2 kPa included in current specifications could identify their nonlinear behavior. A higher stress level was recommended for identifying the nonlinearity of Binder 3 (PG 64-40 from Supplier A). The recovery time and the number of load cycles had significant effects on the nonrecoverable creep compliance (Jnr) and percent recovery (R) values of polymer-modified binders. Based on the testing results, it was recommended that at least 30 load cycles be included at each stress level and that the strain data from the last five cycles be used to calculate the Jnr and R values. The Jnr-diff included in current one current standard was found unwarranted to evaluate the stress sensitivity of the Alaskan polymer-modified binders used in this study

    Recent advance in electrochemical immunosensors for lung cancer biomarkers sensing

    No full text
    Lung cancer has a high mortality rate largely due to late-stage diagnosis. Detecting protein and genetic biomarkers through electrochemical immunosensors enables non-invasive early diagnosis. This review discusses recent advances in electrochemical immunosensors for detecting clinically relevant lung cancer biomarkers. The use of nanomaterials like graphene, carbon nanotubes, metal nanoparticles, and conducting polymers in sensor fabrication improves electron transfer kinetics, enhances signal transduction, and allows higher antibody loading. Smart surface immobilization strategies optimize antibody orientation and binding capacity. Amplification approaches utilizing nanomaterials, enzymes, polymers, dendrimers, and DNA nanostructures are applied to enhance output signal per binding event. Various electroanalytical techniques including amperometry, potentiometry, impedance spectroscopy, and voltammetry are employed for quantitative monitoring. Recent immunosensors showcase low detection limits and wide linear ranges for measurement of major biomarkers like carcinoembryonic antigen, neuron specific enolase, and cytokeratin fragment 21-1. Emerging biomarkers such as microRNAs and circulating tumor cells have also been targeted. However, reproducibility, selectivity, multiplexing, and integration with point-of-care platforms need improvement for widespread clinical translation. Overall, electrochemical immunosensors hold immense potential for sensitive, affordable lung cancer diagnosis if ongoing efforts can address current limitations

    SZ34 inhibits the proteolytic cleavage of pVWF by rADAMTS13 under shear stress.

    <p>(A) Purified pVWF (150 nM) was pre-incubated with SZ34 (0–200 µg/ml) for 30 min at 37°C, and then incubated with 50 nM rADAMTS13. After 5 min of vortexing at 2,500 rpm on a mini vortexer, the 350 kDa cleavage products were visualized by 5% SDS-PAGE under non-reducing conditions and Western blot analysis. 1C1E7 (an anti-VWF D'D3 mAb), SZ129 (an anti-VWF A1 mAb) and SZ123 (an anti-VWF A3 mAb) were used as negative controls. (B) Changes in the cleavage products detected relative to that observed in the absence of mAbs were determined under shear stress by densitometry. The extent of cleavage was analyzed by detection of the intensity of the 350 kDa cleavage products. Results represent the mean ± standard deviation of four independent experiments.</p
