System architecture uses a laser power converter (array of photovoltaic cells) to convert the laser light, from the optical fiber, into electricity.
Among the various topologies of DC DC converters, interleaved boost converter (IBC) has been proposed as a suitable interface for fuel cells to convert low voltage high current input into a high voltage low current output.
Therapies based on iPS cells face scrutiny because genes are added to the cells to convert them into stem cells.
Inhibiting Wnt either with genetic correction or a drug compound restored the ability of the stem cells to convert into cortical neurons.
The engine room houses equipment to convert bio-diesel into hydrogen, fuel cells to convert the hydrogen into electricity, and batteries for power storage.
Scientists have already discovered ways of inducing mouse and human embryonic stem cells to convert in the laboratory into brain, liver, pancreatic and other types of body cell.
"We've redeployed nature's own toolkit in these cells to convert non-muscle cells that are in the heart into new muscle.
Using the sun's heat to warm or evaporate water is a far older form of gathering solar energy than using photovoltaic cells to convert sunlight directly into electricity.
The catalysts are placed directly on the silicon, so no extensive wiring is needed, as in standard photovoltaic cells, to convert sunlight into current and break down the water into hydrogen and oxygen.
Solar-powered cars [1] and aircrafts [2] depend on solar cells to convert sunlight into electricity to drive electric motors.
A major limitation to the use of agents with CSC-specific toxicity is the possibility for the non-stem cells to convert into cancer stem cells.
