The chlorophyll content in water bodies is one of the most important indicator parameters in water quality assessment, red tide warning, carbon cycling, and ecosystem research. Laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy (LIFS) offers considerable potential for in situ online monitoring of chlorophyll in natural waters. Due to the influence of turbidity, temperature, and suspended algal particles, in situ accurate monitoring of chlorophyll in natural water bodies faces enormous challenges, especially the random movement of suspended algal particles, which often causes the fluctuation amplitude of LIFS signals to be greater than the effective signal, leading to substantial measurement errors.

Diverse transcription factors and cofactors act in a well-coordinated manner to ensure proper neutrophil development. Dysregulation of the transcriptional program triggering neutrophil differentiation is associated with various human hematologic disorders such as neutropenia, neutrophilia, and leukemia.
