SOLID STATE FLUID TRANSPORT AND SENSING BASED ON PRINTED AND EMBEDDED CELLULOSE-POLYMER COMPOSITES: AN ALTERNATIVE PATHWAY TO PAPER-BASED MICROFLUIDIC DEVICES

Solid state fluid transport and sensing based on printed and embedded cellulose-polymer composites: An alternative pathway to paper-based microfluidic devices

Here we present an alternative technological approach to paper-based microfluidics that, to the best of our knowledge, has not been Finger Puppet reported so far.Instead of defining fluid conducting paths by cutting fluidic structures, or by printing hydrophobic substances on paper, we prepare cellulose/polymer composites that can be printed additi

Insights into genetic and epigenetic determinants with impact on vitamin D signaling and cancer association studies: The case of thyroid cancer

Vitamin D is a key regulator of calcium metabolism and has been implicated as a cancer preventive agent.However, clinical studies have revealed conflicting results on its cancer preventive properties, attributed in part to multiple metabolic and regulatory factors susceptible to affect individual responses to exogenous vitamin D.Vitamin D is obtain
