Shape memory poly(ionic liquid) (PIL) gels with controllable macroscopic swelling degrees were prepared via host guest interaction in this work.
The aim of the present research is to identify suitable analytical markers at the molecular and macroscopic level and establish correlations amongst them, in order to assess the degree of degradation of historic silk.
In addition, the supramolecular approach provides a degree of control over self-assembly at the molecular level, thereby influencing the macroscopic level and facilitating tuning of the bulk material properties.
For Dr. Leggett, quantum mechanics at the macroscopic level is still uncertain -- and troubling.
For bi-degree 5, minor flaws in the highlight line distribution are still visible when zooming in on the singularity, but the distribution is good at the macroscopic level.
A decisive experiment should involve the interference of states which differ in a macroscopic number of degrees of freedom: an impossible task for today's technology.
The equation of state is based on the statistical properties of the multidimensional potential energy surface as a function of a macroscopic system's degrees of freedom (energy landscape), and allows the calculation of an ideal glass transition locus, along which the configurational entropy vanishes.
Detailed clinico-pathological data (patient age, sex, site of tumor, tumor size, macroscopic type and degree of tumor differentiation) are shown in Additional file 1.
For type II and type III tumors, the macroscopic type, pathologic degree, T-stage, N-stage, and TNM stages were classified on the basis of Japanese classification of gastric carcinoma: 3rd English edition.
On macroscopic examination, the degree of colon damage was scored as follows: 0, normal colon tissue; 1, minimal colon wall thickening without congestion; 2, moderate colon wall thickening with congestion; 3, moderate colon wall thickening, rigidity, and congestion; and 4, marked colon wall thickening, rigidity, and congestion.
