[Peer Teaching in Ultrasound Teaching: Backgraound, Motivation and Experiences of Three Peer Tutors].

Peer Teaching in Ultrasound Teaching: Backgraound, Motivation and Experiences of Three Peer Tutors Ultrasound education is already accessible to many students in Switzerland through courses offered by Young Sonographers as well as universities. Many universities rely on student peer tutors for teaching - but also for examinations, the elaboration of learning content, and teaching research. This interview explores the motivations and experiences of one female and two peer male tutors in ultrasound teaching.

Comparison of Serum Spec fPL(™) and 1,2-o-Dilauryl-Rac-Glycero-3-Glutaric Acid-(6'-Methylresorufin) Ester Assay in 60 Cats Using Standardized Assessment of Pancreatic Histology.

Background: Feline pancreas-specific lipase (Spec fPL) is considered a useful test for the antemortem diagnosis of pancreatitis in cats. A recent study found good agreement between the results of the Spec fPL and catalytic 1,2-o-dilauryl-rac-glycero-3-glutaric acid-(6'-methylresorufin) ester (DGGR) lipase assay. Prospective studies evaluating their sensitivity and specificity are lacking.

Rapid and highly accurate detection of steryl glycosides by ultraperformance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS).

This study describes the development and validation of a fast, accurate, and precise UPLC-Q-TOF-MS method for the analysis of steryl glycosides (SGs). The best combination of separation and sensitivity was obtained with a methanol/water gradient and formic acid as additive, using electrospray ionization (ESI). SGs were detected almost exclusively as sodiated adducts, allowing identification of the intact molecule, including the sugar moiety.
