The disclosure addresses methods, compositions, and kits used to detect or quantify polymerase inhibitors in biological samples. The polymerase inhibitors can be therapeutic agents, or metabolites thereof, that have been administered to a subject as part of, for example, antiretroviral therapy (ART) or pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to address potential infections by, e.g., retroviruses such as HIV and other viruses reliant on reverse transcription. These methods, compositions, and kits can be applied to monitor a subject's compliance with the indicated therapies and can inform potential adjustments to the therapies.

Examples are disclosed that relate to electronically functional yarns. One example provides an electronically functional yarn comprising a core, a sheath at least partially surrounding the core, and an electronic circuit formed on the core. The circuit includes three or more control lines and more than three diode-containing circuit elements controllable by the three or more control lines, each circuit element being controllable via a corresponding set of two of the three or more control lines.

Examples are disclosed herein that relate to electronically functional textile articles. One example provides a knitted textile article comprising a first conductive thread and a second conductive thread knit into the article in such a manner as to form a conductive junction separated by a gap. The knitted textile article further comprises a knitted surface texture feature formed at a location that defines an opening over the gap, and an electronic component connecting the gap to form a circuit with the first conductive thread and the second conductive thread.

As mobile computing devices are increasingly expected to be smaller, thinner, and/or lighter, less space is available for incorporating such structurally stiff perimeter components, as well as energy-absorbing components. The electroactive perimeter stiffening devices, systems, and methods described herein detect a free-fall event or condition, anticipate a subsequent impact event, and actively stiffen one or more electroactive perimeter stiffeners of an associated mobile computing device in preparation for the impact event. The electroactive perimeter stiffeners direct impact energy away from, and in some cases, distribute and/or dissipate the impact energy, in an effort to prevent damage to impact-sensitive components of the mobile computing device.

Examples are disclosed that relate to touch sensors formed on fabrics. One example provides a touch sensor including a fabric layer, a first electrode having a conductive ink disposed on the fabric layer, a dielectric structure disposed over the first electrode, the dielectric structure including an electrode support layer and an adhesive layer bonding the electrode support layer to the fabric layer and the first electrode, and the touch sensor also including a second electrode disposed on the electrode support layer.
