Article Synopsis
  • - The study presents the first specific reference ranges for electrocardiography (ECG) in laboratory mice, derived from a large dataset of over 26,000 C57BL/6N mice grouped by age and sex.
  • - It finds that factors like sex and age have minimal impact on key ECG metrics, while anesthesia significantly reduces heart rate.
  • - The reference ranges established for C57BL/6N mice appear applicable to various other mouse strains, providing a crucial resource for research involving cardiac function in experimental settings.

The electrochemical energy storage performance of activated carbons (ACs) obtained from coffee-derived biowastes was assessed. ACs were obtained from spent coffee ground second waste, after polyphenol extraction, by means of a hydrothermal process followed by physical or chemical activation. The resulting materials exhibited microporous structures with a total specific area between 585 and 2330 m·g.

Improved understanding and management of COVID-19, a potentially life-threatening disease, could greatly reduce the threat posed by its etiologic agent, SARS-CoV-2. Toward this end, we have identified a core peripheral blood immune signature across 63 hospital-treated patients with COVID-19 who were otherwise highly heterogeneous. The signature includes discrete changes in B and myelomonocytic cell composition, profoundly altered T cell phenotypes, selective cytokine/chemokine upregulation and SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies.
