A carbohydrate-based fullerene derivative (AcMal7-C61) is designed, synthesized and applied to a lamellar-forming high-χ block copolymer system, poly(3-hexylthiophene)-block-peracetylated maltoheptaose (P3HT-b-AcMal7), to actualize an ordered donor/acceptor (D/A) network. A well-defined D/A lamellar structure of the P3HT-b-AcMal7AcMal7-C61 blend…[Read more]

exercise IL-6 elevation are key determining factors in the augmentation of hepcidin response to exercise.Fusarium solani (Fs) is one of the notorious necrotrophic fungal pathogens that cause root rot and vascular wilt, accounting for the severe loss of Populus production worldwide. The plant-pathogen interactions have a strong molecular basis. As…[Read more]

Salient object detection, which simulates human visual perception in locating the most significant object(s) in a scene, has been widely applied to various computer vision tasks. Now, the advent of depth sensors means that depth maps can easily be captured; this additional spatial information can boost the performance of salient object detection.…[Read more]
