The distribution, excretion and metabolism of 1,6-dimethylnaphthalene following i.p. administration of a single dose of 20 mg/kg to rats, was investigated using radiotracer [3H] and a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry technique (GC-MS). After 72 h, about 94% of the given dose was excreted in urine and feces. In organs and tissues, the highest concentration during the first hours after administration was detected in fat, liver, spleen and kidneys. Then gradual decline of tritium was noticed in all examined tissues. In urine, the following substances were identified and quantified by GC peak areas: unchanged 1,6-dimethylnaphthalene, 1-methyl-hydroxynaphthalenes, 1-hydroxymethyl-6-methylnaphthalene, 1,6-dimethyl-thionaphthalene, 6-methyl-1-naphthoic aldehyde, 6-methyl-1-naphthoic acid, 1,6-dimethyl-thionaphthalene and 1,6-dimethyl-methylthionaphthalene.

Purpose: Universal newborn hearing screening (UNHS) programs using audiometric techniques alone are limited in ability to detect non-congenital childhood permanent hearing loss (PHL). In 2019, Ontario launched universal newborn screening (NBS) for PHL risk factors: congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) and 22 common variants in GJB2 and SLC26A4. Here we describe our experience with genetic risk factor screening.

Plants with the C photosynthetic pathway can withstand water stress better than plants with C metabolism. However, it is unclear whether C photosynthesis can be preliminarily activated in droughted cotton leaves, and if this contributes to increase in water use efficiency (WUE). An upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.

Increasing evidence implicates disruptions in testicular fatty acid metabolism as a contributing factor in non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), a severe form of male infertility. However, the precise mechanisms linking fatty acid metabolism to NOA pathogenesis have not yet been fully elucidated. Multi-omics analyses, including microarray analysis, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), and metabolomics, were utilized to investigate disruptions in fatty acid metabolism associated with NOA using data from public databases.

Background: Platelet concentrates play an important role in clinical treatment such as platelet function disorders and thrombocytopenia. In the process of preparation and storage of platelets, centrifugation, leukofiltration, and agitation will cause morphological changes and impaired function of platelets, which is associated with the increase of platelet transfusion refractoriness, and named as platelet storage lesion (PSL).
Method: This paper proposes three major operations (centrifugation, agitation, and leukofiltration) that platelets experience during the preparation and storage process, to explore the effect of physical cues on PSL.
