Article Synopsis
  • The development of lichen planus (LP) from radiation is very rare, with only 14 cases noted, and malignancy linked to LP is uncommon, primarily seen in oral forms.
  • This report discusses a unique case of erosive cutaneous LP that transformed into malignancy at a site previously treated with radiation, highlighting the need for careful evaluation and monitoring in similar cases.

Glycerolipids form the largest fraction of all membrane lipids and their composition changes quickly during plant development, the diurnal cycle, and in response to hormones and biotic or abiotic stress. A challenge to accurate glycerolipid measurement is that lipid-degrading enzymes tend to remain active during extraction, and special care must be taken to ensure their inactivation. Multiple extraction methods have arisen to cope with this challenge but only a few comparative studies are available in the literature.

Smart pixels permit rapid signal processing through the use of integrated photodetectors and processing electronics on a single semiconductor chip. Smart pixels with smart illumination can increase the dynamic range and functionality of smart pixels by employing optoelectronic feedback to control the illumination of a scene. This combination of smart pixels and optoelectronic feedback leads to many potential sensor applications, including normalized differential detection, which is modeled and demonstrated here.
