Recent advancements in data analytics, predictive modeling, and optimization have highlighted the potential of integrating algal blooms (ABs) with Industry 4.0 technologies. Among these innovations, digital twins (DT) have gained prominence, driven by the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies, particularly those associated with the Internet of Things (IoT).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFDeep eutectic solvents have attracted considerable attention due to their unique properties and their potential to replace conventional solvents in diverse applications, such as catalysis, energy storage, and green chemistry. However, despite their broad use, the microscopic mechanisms governing solvation dynamics and the role of hydrogen bonding in deep eutectic solvents remain insufficiently understood. In this article, we present our contributions toward unravelling the micro heterogeneity within deep eutectic solvents by combining vibrational Stark spectroscopy and two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy with molecular dynamics simulations.

The fat attenuation index (FAI) is a measure of peri-coronary inflammation that independently predicts cardiovascular disease risk in people without HIV. Whether FAI is associated with immune activation is unknown.

Readily available preventive treatments to reduce cholesterol and blood pressure, among other risk factors, have the potential to reduce and delay incident myocardial infarction (MI), heart failure, and cardiovascular (CV) deaths. Measurement of circulating levels of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and troponin I (cTnI) released from cardiomyocytes, as a result of injury, has been the biochemical standard for the diagnosis of MI for more than 20 years.
