Inactivation of deposited bioaerosols on food contact surfaces with UV-C light emitting diode devices.

The airborne transmission of infectious diseases and bioaerosol-induced cross-contamination pose significant challenges in the food, dairy, and pharma industries. This study evaluated the effectiveness of 279 nm UV-C LED irradiation for decontaminating bioaerosols, specifically containing microorganisms such as (C3040- Kanamycin resistant), Enteritidis (ATCC 4931), and (ATCC 4973), on food contact surfaces. Borosilicate glass, silicon rubber, and stainless steel (316L) surfaces were selected for experimentation for their usage in the food industry.

Understanding the Mechanisms of Methylammonium-Induced Thermal Instability in Mixed-FAMA Perovskites.

Despite a recent shift toward methylammonium (MA)-free lead-halide perovskites for perovskite solar cells, high-efficiency formamidinium lead iodide (FAPbI) devices still often require methylammonium chloride (MACl) as an additive, which evaporates away during the annealing process. In this article, it is shown that the residual MA, however, triggers thermal instability. To investigate the possibility of an optimal concentration of MA that may improve thermal stability, the intrinsic thermal stability of pure FA, FA-rich, MA-rich, and pure MA perovskite films (FAMAPbI, FAMA) is studied.

Use of Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid in Chronic Calcium-Based Chemical Injury.

Purpose: This study presents the successful management of a patient with chronic chemical-based injury using ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) chelation.

Methods: This is a case report of a 59-year-old man who presented to us 2 months after a bilateral, accidental, ocular injury with lime particles at his workplace.

Results: The patient was initially managed with extensive debridement and amniotic membrane grafting for both eyes.

Chain Confinement and Anomalous Diffusion in the Cross over Regime between Rouse and Reptation.

By neutron spin echo (NSE) and pulsed field gradient (PFG) NMR, we study the dynamics of a polyethylene-oxide melt (PEO) with a molecular weight in the transition regime between Rouse and reptation dynamics. We analyze the data with a Rouse mode analysis allowing for reduced long wavelength Rouse modes amplitudes. For short times, subdiffusive center-of-mass mean square displacement ⟨()⟩ was allowed.

Information and communication technology-based interventions for chronic diseases consultation: Scoping review.

Background: Medical consultations are often critical meetings between patients and health personnel to provide treatment, health-management advice, and exchange of information, especially for people living with chronic diseases. The adoption of patient-operated Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) allows the patients to actively participate in their consultation and treatment. The consultation can be divided into three different phases: before, during, and after the meeting.

Quasielastic neutron scattering reveals the temperature dependent rotational dynamics of densely grafted oleic acid.

We study the dynamics of pure oleic acid and grafted oleic acid synthesized by decomposing iron oleate into oleic acid grafted iron oxide nanoparticles. Our quasielastic neutron scattering study shows that oleic acid dominantly performs translational diffusion at room temperature. On the other hand, in nanocomposites, constraints imposed by grafting and crowding of neighboring chains restrict the grafted oleic acid to uniaxial rotation.

Up-to-the-Minute Privacy Policies Gossips in Participatory Epidemiological Studies.

Researchers and researched populations are actively involved in participatory epidemiology. Such studies collect many details about an individual. Recent developments in statistical inferences can lead to sensitive information leaks from seemingly insensitive data about individuals.

Two-Step Saccharification of the Xylan Portion of Sugarcane Waste by Recombinant Xylanolytic Enzymes for Enhanced Xylose Production.

Sugarcane bagasse (SB) and sugarcane trash (SCT) containing 30% hemicellulose content are the waste from the sugarcane industry. Hemicellulose being heterogeneous, more complex, and less abundant than cellulose remains less explored. The optimized conditions for the pretreatment of SB and SCT for maximizing the delignification are soaking in aqueous ammonia (SAA), 18.

ProteoVision: web server for advanced visualization of ribosomal proteins.

ProteoVision is a web server designed to explore protein structure and evolution through simultaneous visualization of multiple sequence alignments, topology diagrams and 3D structures. Starting with a multiple sequence alignment, ProteoVision computes conservation scores and a variety of physicochemical properties and simultaneously maps and visualizes alignments and other data on multiple levels of representation. The web server calculates and displays frequencies of amino acids.

Privacy Perceptions and Concerns in Image-Based Dietary Assessment Systems: Questionnaire-Based Study.

Background: Complying with individual privacy perceptions is essential when processing personal information for research. Our specific research area is performance development of elite athletes, wherein nutritional aspects are important. Before adopting new automated tools that capture such data, it is crucial to understand and address the privacy concerns of the research subjects that are to be studied.

A comparative evaluation of three dimensional accuracy of different types of interocclusal recording materials - an study.

Introduction: The interocclusal registration materials record the occlusal relationship between the natural and /or artificial teeth for planning an occlusal rehabilitation in removable and fixed partial dentures.

Aim And Objectives: The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate and compare the accuracy and the three dimensional stability offered by three different types of interocclusal recording materials at storage time intervals of 1 hour and 24 hours.

Methods: Three commercially available interocclusal recording materials were used: Group I-Polyether bite registration paste (Ramitec), Group II-Polyvinylsiloxane bite registration material (Imprint), Group III-Bite registration wax (Maarc).

Effect of Photoactivation by Ultraviolet Light on Bond Strength of Composite Veneer on Stainless Steel Crowns-An Study.

Aim: The aim of this study is to determine the effect of ultraviolet irradiation on the bond strength of composite veneer adhered to the SSCs.

Early Infant Feeding Practices May Influence the Onset of Symptomatic Celiac Disease.

Purpose: To study whether breastfeeding and breastfeeding status during gluten introduction influences the age at diagnosis of celiac disease (CD). In addition to study, whether the timing of gluten introduction influences the age at diagnosis of CD.

Methods: It was a hospital based observational study.

Extracting PICO Sentences from Clinical Trial Reports using .

underpin Evidence Based Medicine (EBM) by addressing precise clinical questions via comprehensive synthesis of all relevant published evidence. Authors of systematic reviews typically define a Population/Problem, Intervention, Comparator, and Outcome (a criteria) of interest, and then retrieve, appraise and synthesize results from all reports of clinical trials that meet these criteria. Identifying PICO elements in the full-texts of trial reports is thus a critical yet time-consuming step in the systematic review process.
