ESG assessment methodology for emerging technologies: plasma conventional technology for ammonia production.

Environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria demand that enterprises should not be assessed solely on their financial performance, but also on their environmental, social, and governance performance. This numerical assessment of ESG criteria enables them to be evaluated with the consideration of other financial issues of enterprises' performance and thereby guides financial investments into environmentally and socially responsible firms. ESG, however, solidifies the continuance of conventional technologies but can potentially disadvantage emerging technologies.

[Evaluation of a dot-blot technique for the detection of Epstein-Barr virus antibodies (IgG anti-viral capsid antigen)].

Infectious mononucleosis syndrome is caused by several infectious agents, including Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), and Toxoplasma gondii. The ImmunoDot EBV VCA-IgG test (Biomedical Diagnostics) is a dot-blot enzyme-immunoassay, which determines the presence of heterophile antibodies and IgG antibodies directed against Epstein-Barr viral capsid antigen (anti-VCA), CMV and T. gondii.

[Role of Chlamydia trachomatis in tubal pathology (acute salpingitis and tubal sterility). Microbiological study of 175 samples of peritoneal fluid].

The study was carried out on 175 patients who underwent laparoscopy together with search for chlamydia in the peritoneal fluid when they were having investigations for sterility or for pelvic pain. These patients are classified into three groups according to the clinical and laparoscopic features: 50 cases of acute salpingitis. 104 cases of tubal sterility and 21 control cases who were normal on laparoscopy.
