The influence of temperature and relative air humidity on the stability of epidoxorubicin hydrochloride (EP) was investigated. The degradation of the substance studied was determined: (a) in dry air at 393K, (b) at relative air humidity ~76% at 333K, 343K, 353K, 363K and 373K, (c) in the relative air humidity range 50-90% at 363K. The degradation of EP in the atmosphere of increased relative air humidity was a first-order reaction relative to substance concentration and in dry, hot air (RH 0%; 393K) is a reversible first-order reaction relative to substance concentration. The dependences lnk=f(1/T) and lnk=f(RH%) were described by the equation: lnk=(35.1±10.9)-(16,250±3823)(1/T) and lnk=(3.79±3.34) × 10(-2) (RH%)-(12.9±2.4), respectively. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of EP degradation were calculated. The parameters of separation were following: LiChrospher RP-18 column, 5 μm, 250 mm × 4 mm; mobile phase: the mixture of equal volume of acetonitrile and the solution containing 2.88 gl(-1) of sodium laurisulfate and 2.25 ml l(-1) of phosphoric acid (V) 85%; flow rate: 1.0 ml min (-1); UV detection - 254 nm.

Background: Air pollution has been linked to respiratory diseases, while the effects of greenness remain inconclusive.
Objective: We investigated the associations between exposure to particulate matter (PM and PM), black carbon (BC), nitrogen dioxide (NO), ozone (O), and greenness (normalized difference vegetation index, NDVI) with respiratory emergency room visits and hospitalizations across seven Northern European centers in the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS) study.
Methods: We used modified mixed-effects Poisson regression to analyze associations of exposure in 1990, 2000 and mean exposure 1990-2000 with respiratory outcomes recorded duing ECRHS phases II and III.

Criteria air pollutant exposure impacts human health through various pathways. Preterm birth (PTB) is one of the major adverse birth outcomes (ABO) associated with such exposure. Although numerous global and regional studies have been conducted on this issue, few have recently investigated the impact of major criteria air pollutant exposure on PTBs in Bangladesh, one of the world's most polluted countries with the highest relative PTB rate.

The range of sensor technologies for structural health monitoring (SHM) systems is expanding as the need for ongoing structural monitoring increases. In such a case, damage to the monitored structure elements is detected using an integrated network of sensors operating in real-time or periodically in frequent time stamps. This paper briefly introduces a new type of sensor, called a Customized Crack Propagation Sensor (CCPS), which is an alternative for crack gauges, but with enhanced functional features and customizability.
