  3. 3. Towards Large-Area Electronic Systems Using Non-Conventional Substrate and Conductor Materials

    Author : Xiaotian Li; Johan Sidén; Henrik Andersson; Leena Ukkonen; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Non-conventional materials; large-area electronics;

    Abstract : Flexible circuits, also known as flexible printed circuit boards, were originally developed in the 1950s for interconnection between multiple electronic devices when flexibility and movement were required. Nowadays, flexible circuits can be used for implementing electronic systems much more complicated than just interconnections. READ MORE

  5. 5. Modulation of neutrophil extracellular trap formation in health and disease

    Author : Ava Hosseinzadeh; Constantin F. Urban; Carol Munro; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neutrophils; Candida albicans; Adenosine; Tempol; Nicotine; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : The critical prompt innate immune response is highly built upon the influx of neutrophils from the blood stream to the site of infection. In the battlefield, neutrophils sense pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) through their pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) to launch a number of responses with the goal to defeat the invading pathogen.
