Numerical tests including several contact discontinuities and multi-material flows confirmed the effectiveness, robustness, and low computation cost of the proposed method.
To meet the new challenges posed by the biotechnological production of fuels, chemicals and materials, microbes should exert strong physiological robustness and fitness, in addition to strong metabolic capabilities, to enable them to work efficiently in actual bioprocesses.
The use of recently developed red light-excitable pH sensing materials [ 26], which exhibit chemical and photochemical robustness and are not affected by oxygen, could overcome this disadvantage.
As described in detail in Materials and Methods, we obtain indices for modularity, robustness, and evolvability for 167 distinct mammalian proteins, each with orthologs from 25 species.
Due to their small volume, long-term operational robustness, and potential chemical diversity, these materials are promising candidates for catalyst screening applications.
The GNP sensors combine the robustness and processing ease of inorganic materials with the sensitivity and chemical selectivity of certain organic molecules to cancer biomarker VOCs (Haick, 2007; Jain et al, 2007).
Our results show that PLNPs are a promising class of materials for LFAs and potentially other in vitro diagnostics applications requiring robustness and high sensitivity.
Electrode materials and the components of electrodes are selected carefully to improve sensor sensitivity, selectivity, reproducibility, robustness, and long-term stability and/or resistance to fouling in the biological environment.
Because of the robustness and suspended geometry of the carbon nanowire, the nanowire could be easily functionalized with sensing materials using a simple lift-off process.
Besides the versions shown in Table 1 a number of further modifications tested network robustness and behavior as well as system input and stability from different connections and crosstalk possibilities (see suppl. Material).
