It has been proven that there are synchrony (or phase-locking) phenomena present in multiple oscillating systems such as electrical circuits, lasers, chemical reactions, and human neurons. If the measurements of these systems cannot detect the individual oscillators but rather a superposition of them, as in brain electrophysiological signals (electro- and magneoencephalogram), spurious phase locking will be detected. Current source-extraction techniques attempt to undo this superposition by assuming properties on the data, which are not valid when underlying sources are phase-locked. Statistical independence of the sources is one such invalid assumption, as phase-locked sources are dependent. In this paper, we introduce methods for source separation and clustering which make adequate assumptions for data where synchrony is present, and show with simulated data that they perform well even in cases where independent component analysis and other well-known source-separation methods fail. The results in this paper provide a proof of concept that synchrony-based techniques are useful for low-noise applications.

Background: Advanced cell culture techniques such as 3D bioprinting and hydrogel-based cell embedding techniques harbor many new and exciting opportunities to study cells in environments that closely recapitulate in vivo conditions. Researchers often study these environments using fluorescence microscopy to visualize the protein association with objects such as cells within the 3D environment, yet quantification of concentration profiles in the microenvironment has remained elusive.
Objective: Demonstrate an assay that enables near real-time in situ biomarker detection and spatiotemporal quantification of biomarker concentration in 3D cell culture.

Ionization and fragmentation are at the core of mass spectrometry. But they are not necessarily separated in space, as in-source fragmentation can also occur. Here, we survey the literature published since our 2005 review on the internal energy and fragmentation in electrospray ionization sources.

Background And Aim: Managing obesity requires a comprehensive approach that involves therapeutic lifestyle changes, medications, or metabolic surgery. Many patients seek health information from online sources and artificial intelligence models like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot before consulting health professionals. This study aims to evaluate the appropriateness of the responses of Google Gemini and Microsoft Copilot to questions on pharmacologic and surgical management of obesity and assess for bias in their responses to either the ADA or AACE guidelines.

Iron plays a pivotal role in regulating ocean primary productivity. Iron is supplied from diverse sources such as the atmosphere and the geosphere, and hence iron biogeochemical research has focused on identifying and quantifying such sources of "new" iron. However, the recycling of this new iron fuels up to 90% of the productivity in vast oceanic regions.

Early and portable detection of pathogenic bacteria is crucial for ensuring food safety, monitoring product quality, and tracing the sources of bacterial infections. Moving beyond traditional plate-culture counting methods, the analysis of active bacterial components offers a rapid means of quantifying bacteria. Here, metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived NiCo-layered double hydroxide nanosheets (LDHs), synthesized via the Kirkendall effect, were employed as highly effective oxidase mimics to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS).
