Chemicals List for Analytical Performance (CLAP)
This RST contains a set of machine or deep learning algorithms which can be utilized in the development of relevant medical devices to assist in the prediction of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and stroke according to resting electroencephalography (EEG).
The 3D human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocyte (hiPSC-CM) Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM) Tool, 3D hiPSC-CM CCM Tool, is a laboratory method that includes detailed characterization and protocols for evaluating contractile response in healthy 3D hiPSC-CM models. The core elements of this tool include the ability to perform in vitro CCM contractility assays, including contraction force and kinetics, in 3D hiPSC models for various known and unknown electrophysiology pulse waveform parameters and combinations.
This RST outlines a strategy for estimating the presence of cyclic phase transformation to aid in the determination of appropriate load levels for Fatigue to Fracture testing of nitinol components. Specifically, it includes a flowchart (Figure 1 in Appendix) to estimate the low to high cycle fatigue transition using either computational or experimental methods. Based on the output of the analysis, the user can create a test plan for fatigue testing per ASTM F3211 which includes both expected low cycle fatigue fractures and runouts.
