Background: While significant progress has been made to clarify the effects of Au and Ag nanoparticle size on SERS enhancement, research on the size effects of copper nanoparticles and copper-related nanoalloys on SERS enhancement remain scarce. Nanoscale copper (Cu) is important because of its unique sensing and catalytic properties; however, research on its size and compositional effects remains a significant challenge because of the intricate fabrication process and difficulty in preventing oxidation.

Results: Our study elucidated the size-dependent, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of Cu NPs, particularly the sensing capabilities of both electromagnetic (EM) SERS at 1.

In this work we developed methylene blue-immobilized copper-iron nanoparticles (MB-CuFe NPs) through a facile one-step hydrothermal reaction to achieve a better phototherapeutic effect. The Fe/Cu ratio of the CuFe NPs was controllable by merely changing the loading amount of iron precursor concentration. The CuFe NPs could serve as a Fenton catalyst to convert hydrogen peroxide (HO) into reactive oxygen species (ROS), while the superparamagnetic properties also suggest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) potential.

Introduction: Portable ultrasound is a modality of medical ultrasonography that utilizes small and light devices, and is an established diagnostic method used in clinical settings such as Cardiology, Vascular Surgery, Radiology, Endocrinology, Pediatric and Obstetric & Gynecology.

Presentation Of Cases: We present a case report of 86-years old patient who underwent surgical rib fixation for multiple rib fractures followed by falling from standing height and our management experience.

Discussion: The use of portable ultrasound device in operation theatre demonstrates several advantages.
