Development and Design of an Online Quality Inspection System for Electric Car Seats.

As the market share of electric vehicles continues to rise, consumer demands for comfort within the vehicle interior have also increased. The noise generated by electric seats during operation has become one of the primary sources of in-cabin noise. However, the offline detection methods for electric seat noise severely limit production capacity.

Synthesis of Bridged Cycloisoxazoline Scaffolds via Rhodium-Catalyzed Coupling of Nitrones with Cyclic Carbonate.

Bridged isoxazolidines were synthesized via Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H allylation of α-aryl nitrones with 5-methylene-1,3-dioxan-2-one. The nitrone group serves as a directing group and 1,3-dipole in the C-H activation/[3 + 2] cycloaddition cascade, exhibiting excellent chemo- and stereoselectivity along with good functional group compatibility. The resulting skeletal structure was conveniently modified to produce a range of important chemical frameworks, and the protocol was applied to biologically active molecules.

Identification and Functional Characterization of Gene Mutations Underlying Taiwanese Hunter Syndrome (Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II).

Hunter syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis II; MPS II) is caused by a defect of the iduronate-2-sulfatase () gene. Few studies have reported integrated mutation data of Taiwanese MPS II phenotypes. In this study, we summarized genotype and phenotype correlations of confirmed MPS II patients and asymptomatic MPS II infants in Taiwan.
