Multimode interference methane sensor based on a ZIF-8/PDMS composite film.

A multimode interference methane sensor based on a ZIF-8/PDMS composite film is proposed. The sensing principle is that the refractive index of the ZIF-8/PDMS composite film changes when it adsorbs methane, leading to a measurable optical path difference during the coupling of the cladding higher-order modes and the fundamental mode in the multimode interference fiber (MMI). The environmental methane concentration is then detectable by detecting the wavelength shifts of the interference peaks in the resulted spectrum.

High-sensitivity THz-ATR imaging of cerebral ischemia in a rat model.

The fast label-free detection of the extent and degree of cerebral ischemia has been the difficulty and hotspot for precise and accurate neurosurgery. We experimentally demonstrated that the fresh cerebral tissues at different ischemic stages within 24 hours can be well distinguished from the normal tissues using terahertz (THz) attenuated total reflection (ATR) imaging system. It was indicated that the total reflectivity of THz wave for ischemic cerebral tissues was lower than that for normal tissues.

Optimization of the Semi-Active-Suspension Control of BP Neural Network PID Based on the Sparrow Search Algorithm.

Electric vehicles with hub motors have integrated the motor into the wheel, which increase the unsprung mass of the vehicle, and intensifies the vibration of the underspring components. The motor excitation during driving also intensifies the wheel vibration. The coupling effect between the two makes the performance of electric vehicles deteriorate.

OxLDL enhances procoagulant activity of endothelial cells by TMEM16F-mediated phosphatidylserine exposure.

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), a key component in atherosclerosis and hyperlipidemia, is a risk factor for atherothrombosis in dyslipidemia, yet its mechanism is poorly understood. In this study, we used oxLDL-induced human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs) and high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice as a hyperlipidemia model. Phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure, cytosolic Ca, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and lipid peroxidation were measured by flow cytometer.

Spermidine improves the antioxidant capacity and morphology of intestinal tissues and regulates intestinal microorganisms in Sichuan white geese.

Introduction: Intestinal health is very important to the health of livestock and poultry, and is even a major determining factor in the performance of livestock and poultry production. Spermidine is a type of polyamine that is commonly found in a variety of foods, and can resist oxidative stress, promote cell proliferation and regulate intestinal flora.

Methods: In this study, we explored the effects of spermidine on intestinal health under physiological states or oxidative stress conditions by irrigation with spermidine and intraperitoneal injection of 3-Nitropropionic acid (3-NPA) in Sichuan white goose.

Air Gap Fiber Bragg Grating for Simultaneous Strain and Temperature Measurement.

We propose an air gap fiber Bragg grating (g-FBG) sensor that can measure strain and temperature simultaneously. The sensor is made by aligning two fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs), and an air gap exists between these two sub-gratings. This sensor's architecture allows it to form a spectrum with phase-shifted fiber Bragg grating (PSFBG) spectroscopy and Fabry-Perot interference (FPI) spectroscopy.

Pathway analysis of spermidine anti-oxidative stress and inducing autophagy in granulosa cells of Sichuan white geese.

Spermidine, a natural polyamine, has been proven antioxidant function, but its pathway and mechanism of action remain unclear. Based on the oxidative stress model by 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NPA), the study explored the pathways by spermidine to rescue oxidative stress via autophagic process in goose granulosa cells by RNA-seq and RNA interference. In transcriptional regulation, in addition to KEGG pathways related to cell proliferation and differentiation, lots of KEGG pathways associated with inflammation, metabolism, and signaling were also significantly enriched in 3-NPA vs.

γ-aminobutyric (GABA) is the most important inhibitory neurotransmitier in vertebrate central nervous systems. The content level of GABA is related to the different degree of malignancy gliomas. Thus, it can be considered a promising glioma biomarker.

Spermidine suppresses oxidative stress and ferroptosis by Nrf2/HO-1/GPX4 and Akt/FHC/ACSL4 pathway to alleviate ovarian damage.

Aims: Oxidative stress is considered to be one of the culprits of ovarian dysfunction. Spermidine (SPD) is a natural aliphatic polyamine that is widely present in living organisms and has been shown to exert preventive effects on various ageing-related diseases. This study seeks to investigate the potential preventive and protective effects of SPD on ovarian oxidative damage.

Raman spectroscopic diagnosis of blast-induced traumatic brain injury in rats combined with machine learning.

Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) is a kind of nervous system disease, which results in a major health and economic problem to society. However, the rapid and label-free detection method with high sensitivity is still in great demand for the diagnosis of bTBI, especially for mild bTBI. In this paper, we report a new strategy for bTBI diagnosis through hippocampus and hypothalamus tissues based on Raman spectroscopy.
