Monitoring of Curing Process of Epoxy Resin by Long-Period Fiber Gratings.

The curing of epoxy resin is a complex thermo-chemical process that is difficult to monitor using existing sensing systems. We monitored the curing process of an epoxy resin by using long-period fiber gratings. The refractive index of the epoxy resin increases during the curing process and can be measured to determine the degree of curing.

COVID-19 Coronavirus-Induced Atypical Pneumonia: Efficacy of the Monoclonal Antibody Bevacizumab in Moderate to Severe Cases.

COVID-19 novel coronavirus has created a global pandemic. Affected patients may develop acute lung injury and its more severe form - acute respiratory distress syndrome. Hypoxia and severe inflammation increase the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which induces vascular endothelial proliferation.
