Ionization Characteristics of Glycan Homologues in Various Modes of Electrospray.

Fluorescence labeled glycan homologous mixtures were quantified using fluorescence and then used to evaluate ionization performances in electrospray ionization at micro, nano, and femto flow modes. nanoESI produced higher (2+ and 3+) charged ions adducted with sodium and calcium. In comparison, femtoESI was found to favor the generation of [M + H] ions against metal adducts, even with nonvolatile salts up to 1 mM for NaCl and 100 μM for CaCl.

An updated comprehensive review on waste valorization: Informetric analysis, current insights and future perspectives on cereal waste and byproduct utilization for sustainable industrial applications.

Cereal crops have been integral to human sustenance since the Neolithic era which have earned significant attention as staple foods. The year-round cultivation and consumption of cereal-based products have led to the escalating global production of cereals and a rise in industrial processing which results in significant waste generation. These wastes contain high-value nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids.

ULTRASOUND IMAGING AND PATHOLOGIC FEATURES OF IDIOPATHIC SCROTAL CALCINOSIS IN A YOUNG ADULT NIGERIAN AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE.

Background: Idiopathic scrotal calcinosis is a rare and benign disease of the scrotal skin that presents as solitary or multiple painless calcified nodules or papules in the absence of systemic disorders of calcium or phosphorus metabolism. Although some theories have been proposed as to the cause of this rare disease, the exact cause remains unknown. In a resource-poor medical setting like Nigeria, a confident diagnosis of this condition can be made with ultrasonography.

Management of sugar dust in the sugar industry.

Sugar dust poses significant risks in the sugar industry, threatening workers' safety and health as well as the potential for explosions and fires. The combustibility of sugar dust arises from its small, lightweight particles that disperse easily and ignite readily. Effective management strategies are essential to ensuring a safe work environment and preventing accidents.

Safety on North Carolina and Kentucky trout farms.

The objective of this study was to identify and describe work-related safety hazards, injuries, and near-injury events (close calls) that occurred on trout farms in North Carolina and Kentucky. An interview instrument was used to collect information on occupational hazards, injuries, and near-injury events that resulted from work-related activities. Trout farmers reported occupational hazards including falling live tank lids, slippery surfaces on hauling trucks, lifting strains, falls from raceway walls and walkways, needlesticks while vaccinating fish, allergies, hypothermia/drowning, falls from cranes, chemical exposure, fire/explosions related to oxygen exposure, and electrical contact with overhead power lines.
