Published: May 2009

A rapid method of (89)Sr and (90)Sr comprising ion chromatography for preconcentration and Sr extraction chromatography for separation of Sr from Ca, Ba and Y was validated with spiked milk samples. An (89)Sr/(90)Sr activity ratio of up to 12 showed the relative bias was within +/-20%. The separation time of Sr was 7h and the chemical recovery of Sr ranged from 80% to 95%. The detection limit for 500 mL milk and 90 min counting time was 0.1 Bq L(-1).

The rapid advancements in additive manufacturing (AM) across different scales and material classes have enabled the creation of architected materials with highly tailored properties. Beyond geometric flexibility, multi-material AM further expands design possibilities by combining materials with distinct characteristics. While machine learning has recently shown great potential for the fast inverse design of lattice structures, its application has largely been limited to single-material systems.

Infectious microbes can spread rapidly from fomites (contaminated surfaces) via hand touch, with prolonged residence time on surfaces increasing transmission risk by extending exposure periods and/or involving more susceptible individuals. Existing studies have focused on decreasing microbial contamination, but not on the need for rapid removal from surface systems. This study introduces residence time as the time that a microbe spends within the surface system.

Background: Uzbekistan, a highly endemic country for hepatitis B virus (HBV), introduced infant vaccination with hepatitis B vaccine (HepB) in 2001. Since 2002, it had ≥90 % reported immunization coverage for ≥3 doses of HepB (HepB3) and the birth dose (HepB-BD). However, the impact of HepB vaccination and the progress towards achieving the regional hepatitis B control and global viral hepatitis B elimination goals had not been assessed.

There is a critical need for inclusive diagnostic platforms to enhance the accuracy of early breast cancer detection. Dysregulated microRNA-1246 (miR-1246), closely linked to the disease progression and recurrence, has emerged as a promising diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for BC. However, achieving simple, rapid, and ultrasensitive quantification of serum miRNAs remains significant challenge.
