In microfluidic systems, resonant acoustic fields enable controlled particle manipulation, a phenomena known as acoustophoresis. These contactless and low-cost processes have successfully been applied to manipulate bulk particle populations, however robust single-cell manipulation for single-cell analysis remains a challenge. This work presents an experimental investigation into optimising the con
The Monte Carlo method has become increasingly used to simulate imaging systems like the scintillation camera and SPECT systems. In order to investigate intrinsic properties of SPECT systems the Monte Carlo based application SIMIND (Simulating Medical Imaging Nuclear Detectors) has been developed. Up to now, it has not been able to simulate a pinhole-imaging device with SIMND. The aim of this work
In this paper, curve-fitting and an artificial neural network (ANN) model were developed to predict R-Event. Expected number of new infections that arise in any event occurring over a total time in any space is termed as R-Event. Real-time data for the office environment was gathered in the spring of 2022 in a naturally ventilated office room in Roorkee, India, under composite climatic conditions.
Background: Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) are highly prevalent in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and are associated with negative outcomes. However, NPS are currently underrecognized at the memory clinic and non-pharmacological interventions are scarcely implemented. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the Describe, Investigate, Create, Evaluate (DICE) method™ to improve the care for NPS in AD
Three-dimensional (3D) cultures of primary human hepatocytes (3D PHH) are successfully used to reduce and replace the use of animal experiments in biomedical research. Yet, the initial formation of 3D PHH is highly dependent on the supplementation with FBS. However, the molecular composition of FBS and its effects on cultured cells are poorly understood. Moreover, FBS is prone to batch-to-batch va
The writings of the Austrian novelist and essayist Robert Musil provide sociology with vital problems and reflections. Indeed, Musil, not least in the novel The Man without qualities, introduces discussions that extend conventional and recurrent understanding of modernity – sociology’s general object of analysis. The paper focuses on three major sets of questions in Musil’s work: 1) the shapelessnThe writings of the Austrian novelist and essayist Robert Musil provide sociologywith vital problems and reflections.

istopathologic classification of lung carcinoma is important, as a prognostic factor and in the evaluation of treatment modalities. Although the World Health Organization classification of lung cancer is based on routine microscopy, immunohistochemistry is an important additional aspect in modern pathologic practice. This study examines whether the main histologic types of lung carcinomas are more
One of the world's most important and rapidly expanding crops, oil palm, is associated with low levels of biodiversity. Changes in predator communities might alter ecosystem services and subsequently sustainable management but these links have received little attention to date. Here, for the first time, we manipulated ant and flying vertebrate (birds and bats) access to oil palms in six smallholde
Responsiveness to hypnotic procedures has been related to unusual eye behaviors for centuries. Kallio and collaborators claimed recently that they had found a reliable index for "the hypnotic state" through eye-tracking methods. Whether or not hypnotic responding involves a special state of consciousness has been part of a contentious debate in the field, so the potential validity of their claim w
Provupparbetning är ett viktigt steg i många metoder för kemisk analys.Detta gäller framförallt fasta prover då de kemiska ämnena som avses för analys, även kallade analyter, måste extraheras ut. Det vill säga att genomföra en överföring av analyter från provet till ett lösningsmedel. Därefter kan halten bestämmas med de metoder som ofta finns till hands i ett analyslaboratorium. I de fall då fettSupercritical fluid extraction is an extraction technique suitable for lipophilic compounds from solid samples. Most commonly supercritical carbon dioxide is the main component in the extraction phase, rendering the technique relatively environmentally benign. The extraction technique is rapid due to the low viscosity and the high diffusivity of analytes in the supercritical extraction phase.The s
NMR spin relaxation in the rotating frame (R-1 rho) is a unique method for atomic-resolution characterization of conformational ( chemical) exchange processes occurring on the microsecond time scale. Here, we use amide H-1 off-resonance R-1 rho relaxation experiments to determine exchange parameters for processes that are significantly faster than those that can be probed using N-15 or C-13 relaxa
The haptoglobin phenotypes of Sudanese patients with complicated and uncomplicated falciparum malaria, and those of uninfected randomly selected individuals, were determined by electrophoresis of sera on polyacrylamide gels followed by benzidine staining of the gels. Among 273 malaria patients, the proportions with haptoglobin phenotypes (1-1), (2-1) and (2-2) were 60.8%, 29.7% and 9.5%, respectiv
Background: The strongest risk factor for falls is a history of falls. Therefore, interventions targeting persons at risk of falling before they are aware of the risk themselves is highly demanded. The prevention of falls is a complex task and has no easy solutions; an interdisciplinary approach is necessary. Modern technology provides us with novel opportunities to detect and monitor falls and ne
In phase-change memory devices, a material is cycled between glassy and crystalline states. The highly temperature-dependent kinetics of its crystallization process enables application in memory technology, but the transition has not been resolved on an atomic scale. Using femtosecond x-ray diffraction and ab initio computer simulations, we determined the time-dependent pair-correlation function o
Background and purpose: Pain is highly prevalent in Parkinson's disease (PD), impacting patients’ ability, mood and quality of life. Detecting the presence of pain in its multiple modalities is necessary for adequate personalized management of PD. A 14-item, PD-specific, patient-based questionnaire (the King's Parkinson's Disease Pain Questionnaire, KPPQ) was designed corresponding to the rater-ba
Food allergies are a growing health problem that generate high costs for health systems. Food allergies have a prevalence of 6-8% in children and 2-3% in adults, which is increasing in the last 10 years due to industrialization. The wide variety of ingredients containing food allergens, in combination with the high number of product formulations and processing methods to produce food makes allerge
