Frequent sgRNA-barcode recombination in single-cell perturbation assays by Shiqi Xie (5346173)

“…Since barcodes are often several kilobases from their corresponding sgRNAs, viral recombination-mediated swapping of barcodes and sgRNAs is feasible. Using a self-circularization-based sgRNA-barcode library preparation protocol, we estimate the recombination rate to be ~50% and we trace this phenomenon to the pooled viral packaging step. …”

Effect of Squeeze Casting on Microhardness and Microstructure of Al-3Cu-xSi Alloy by Ronaldo Oliveira (7453877)

“…This process provides changes in the microstructure which lead to changes in the mechanical properties of the material such as the increase in the microhardness of the processed alloy. alloys Al-5,5% Si-3% Cu, Al-7,5% Si-3% and Al-9% Si-3% Cu alloys were solidified by the squeeze casting process to analyze the microstructural and microhardness variations. Pressures of 0 MPa, 50 MPa, 100 MPa and 150 Mpa were used. In general, with increasing pressure and composition, the λ2 values decrease from the metal/mold interface, especially at pressures of 150 MPa and Composition of 9%Si, on the other hand the increase of these variables leads to the formation of more phases Al2Cu metastable that have a decrease in the Microhardness of the material, in addition to the formation of other phases due to the proximity to the eutetic.…”
