Recently, single cell cloning techniques have been gradually developed benefited from their important roles in monoclonal antibody screening, tumor heterogeneity research fields, etc. In this study, we developed a high throughput device containing 1400 lateral chambers to efficiently isolate single cells and carry out long-term single cell clonal cultivation as well as tumor heterogeneity studi...

Device independent user interface description languages are used to create concrete user interfaces for a multitude of devices from a single abstract user interface description. All current languages have in common that the target device for the concrete user interface is assumed to be a single selfcontained device. But what about ubiquitous computing environments, which are generously equipped...

In this paper, we propose a novel single-electron device for computation of a Voronoi diagram (VD). A cellular-automaton model of VD formation [18] was used to construct the device that consisted of three layers of a 2-D array of single-electron oscillators. Through extensive numerical simulations, we show pattern formation on the proposed device and demonstrate the VD computation.

background and purpose: many workers are exposed to workplace hazards. many occupational diseases are preventable by personal protective devices (ppds). though many workers do not use ppds or their protection by ppds is not sufficient. this study was designed to assess the quality of ppds usage among industrial workers. materials and methods: in a cross-sectional study, 648 workers from four ma...
