MUCOSAL TRANSMISSIBILITY, DISEASE INDUCTION AND CORECEPTOR SWITCHING OF R5 SHIVSF162P3N MOLECULAR CLONES IN RHESUS MACAQUES

Mucosal transmissibility, disease induction and coreceptor switching of R5 SHIVSF162P3N molecular clones in rhesus macaques

Abstract Background Mucosally transmissible and pathogenic CCR5 (R5)-tropic simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV) molecular clones are useful reagents to Board identity neutralization escape in HIV-1 vaccine experiments and to study the envelope evolutionary process and mechanistic basis for coreceptor switch during the course of natural infec

A Novel 3D Ring-Based Flapper Valve for Soft Robotic Applications

In this paper, the design and Fuser Unit testing of a novel valve for the intuitive spatial control of soft or continuum manipulators are presented.The design of the valve is based on the style of a hydraulic flapper valve, but with simultaneous control of three pressure feed points, which can be used to drive three antagonistically arranged hydrau
