Direct Writing By Way of Melt Electrospinning.
Summary of "Direct Writing By Way of Melt Electrospinning."
Melt electrospun fibers of poly(ϵ-caprolactone) are accurately deposited using an automated stage as the collector. Matching the translation speed of the collector to the speed of the melt electrospinning jet establishes control over the location of fiber deposition. In this sense, melt electrospinning writing can be seen to bridge the gap between solution electrospinning and direct writing additive manufacturing processes.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Historiography
The writing of history; the principles, theory, and history of historical writing; the product of historical writing. (Webster, 3d ed)
Ionic Liquids
Salts that melt below 100 C. Their low VOLATILIZATION can be an advantage over volatile organic solvents.
Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis
Electrophoresis in which various denaturant gradients are used to induce nucleic acids to melt at various stages resulting in separation of molecules based on small sequence differences including SNPs. The denaturants used include heat, formamide, and urea.
Authorship
The profession of writing. Also the identity of the writer as the creator of a literary production.
Retraction Of Publication As Topic
Authors' withdrawal or disavowal of their participation in performing research or writing the results of their study.
