Modified full-face snorkel masks as reusable personal protective equipment for hospital personnel

Patrick Gerber, Mélanie Thérèse Marie Hannebelle, Nitin Arora

Here we adapt and evaluate a full-face snorkel mask for use as personal protective equipment (PPE) for health care workers, who lack appropriate alternatives during the COVID-19 crisis in the spring of 2020. The design (referred to as Pneumask) consists of ...

Reusability of filtering facepiece respirators after decontamination through drying and germicidal UV irradiation

Véronique Michaud, David Vernez, Guillaume Suarez, Kiattisak Batsungnoen

Introduction During pandemics, such as the SARS-CoV-2, filtering facepiece respirators plays an essential role in protecting healthcare personnel. The recycling of respirators is possible in case of critical shortage, but it raises the question of the effe ...

Alzheimer's Disease-Linked Mutations in Presenilin-1 Result in a Drastic Loss of Activity in Purified gamma-Secretase Complexes

Lorène Aeschbach, Patrick Fraering, Jemila Houacine

Background: Mutations linked to early onset, familial forms of Alzheimer's disease (FAD) are found most frequently in PSEN1, the gene encoding presenilin-1 (PS1). Together with nicastrin (NCT), anterior pharynx-defective protein 1 (APH1), and presenilin en ...

Planar micro-direct methanol fuel cell prototyped by rapid powder blasting

Martinus Gijs, Meng Shen, Ludovic Dovat

We present a planar micro-direct methanol fuel cell (μ−DMFC) fabricated by rapid prototyping powder blasting technology. Using an elastomeric mask, we pattern two parallel microfluidic channels in glass. The anode and cathode of the fuel cell are formed by ...
