The effect of capping agent on morphology, surface functionalization, and bio-compatibility properties of KTiOPO nanoparticles.

KTiOPO (KTP) nanoparticles (NPs) are potential materials as biolabels for long-term imaging. Optimizing their properties can lead to higher imaging efficiency and lower cytotoxicity and side effects. In this study, these nanoparticles were synthesized using the co-precipitation method and capping agents of oxalic acid and glycine.

Reference Database for a Novel Binocular Visual Function Perimeter: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Purpose: To construct a comprehensive reference database (RDB) for a novel binocular automated perimeter.

Design: A four-site prospective randomized clinical trial.

Subjects And Controls: Three hundred fifty-six healthy subjects without ocular conditions that might affect visual function were categorized into 7 age groups.

Clinical and neuroimaging precursors in cerebral amyloid angiopathy: impact of the Boston criteria version 2.0.

Background And Purpose: Although the Boston criteria version 2.0 facilitates the sensitivity of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) diagnosis, there are only limited data about precursor symptoms. This study aimed to determine the impact of neurological and imaging features in relation to the time of CAA diagnosis.

Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis and Acute Encephalitis Following Vaccination Against SARS-CoV-2: Two Case Reports and Review of Literature.

The spectrum of severe neurological complications following COVID-19 vaccination includes cerebrovascular events, inflammatory diseases of the CNS, cranial and peripheral nerve involvement and muscle affections. Post-vaccinal acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) and acute encephalitis are rare. We report on a patient suffering from acute encephalitis and another with post-vaccinal monophasic ADEM.

Green synthesis of multifunctional ZnO/chitosan nanocomposite film using wild Mentha pulegium extract for packaging applications.

Following the global corona virus pandemic and environmental contamination caused by chemical plastic packaging, awareness of the need for environmentally friendly biofilms and antibacterial coatings is increasing. In this study, a biodegradable hybrid film, comprising of green-synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) with a chitosan (CS) matrix, was fabricated using a simple casting procedure. The ZnO NPs were synthesized using extract, and the synthesized NPs and films were characterized using different approaches.
