OBJECTIVES: Airborne exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in the potroom of an aluminum reduction plant was studied in relation to genotoxic or mutagenic effects, and the possibility of host genotypes of different metabolizing enzymes modifying associations between PAH exposure and genotoxic or mutagenic response was assessed. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Ninety-eight male potroom workers a
We have developed an assay, based on nanofluidic channels and fluorescence microscopy, for optical mapping of DNA based on competitive binding between two molecules - one fluorescent and one sequence selective. From the experimental data we can extract binding constants for the two competing DNA binders, which may be subsequently used to calculate a theoretical reference map of any DNA with known
As an alternative to traditional top-down techniques for fabrication of one-dimensional devices we here report an approach wherein a bottom-up technique is used to create one-dimensional device structures. We use the vapor-liquid-solid growth method, in which a catalytically active gold nanoparticle forms a eutectic alloy with the nanowire constituents. Our method of growth allows atomically abrup
Protein D, a novel surface protein of the bacterial species Haemophilus influenzae with affinity for human IgD, was isolated after solubilization with sonication and Sarcosyl-extraction by a single SDS-PAGE step. From 1 ml of packed bacteria was prepared 0.25 mg of purified protein D. The apparent m.w. of protein D was estimated to 42,000 by SDS-PAGE and gel chromatography. Edman degradation cycle
Secretion of unique eosinophil granule constituents may play a role in allergic and parasitic reactions. Therefore we have investigated possible mechanisms for regulation of secretion in eosinophils. A hemolytic plaque assay and an enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assay were developed for detection of secreted eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) from single adherent eosinophils. The protein kinase
Hydrogen is essen/al for sustaining microbial communi/es in a wide range of modern ecosystems and was likely pivotal for the emergence of early life on our planet. Across the prokaryotes and eukaryotes, hydrogen is produced or consumed by ‘hydrogenase’ enzymes. Hydrogenases in prokaryotes vary in their subunit composi/on, ranging from single-subunit soluble proteins to large, mul/-subunit complexe
Background: Social prescribing (SP) has emerged as a non-medical strategy to enhance cancer survivors’ well-being by addressing psychosocial challenges through diverse interventions. Despite growing evidence of benefits, a comprehensive synthesis of intervention effectiveness and implementation barriers remains limited. This scoping review updates current evidence on SP interventions, outcomes, an
As generative AI becomes widely accessible across industries, firms face a strategic paradox. The same technology that expands creative capability simultaneously erodes the distinctiveness on which competitive advantage depends, drawing firms toward commoditized and undifferentiated outputs. Against this backdrop, understanding how organizations appropriate value from generative AI rather than mer

BACKGROUND: Understanding the dispersal and genetic structure of invasive insects across islands is important for designing management plans that are appropriate at spatial and temporal scales. For invasive parasites, population dynamics are largely determined by the distribution and density of their host species. The introduced parasitic fly, Philornis downsi, parasitises nestlings of endemic bir
Quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) are periodic semiconductor heterostructures, capable of producing laser gain. They have become an important source of coherent radiation in the mid infrared, and THz frequency regions. QCLs are non-linear electric devices, and often have bias regions of negative differential resistivity (NDR). These regions are inherently unstable, and electric field domains (EFDs) fo
Microplastics (MPs) in biosolids used as soil amendments are of growing concern. The purpose of this study was to improve the characterization of MPs in complex biosolid matrices by optimizing sample preparation for morphological and chemical analyses with different spectroscopic techniques. We compared extraction procedures involving Fenton oxidation (F), Fenton plus sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS),
