The histopathologists get the benefits of wide range of colored dyes to have much useful information about the lesions and the tissue compositions. Despite its advantages, the staining process comes up with quite complex variations in staining concentrations and correlations, tissue fixation types, and fixation time periods. Together with the improvements in computing power and with the development of novel image analysis methods, these imperfections have led to the emerging of several color normalization algorithms. This article is a review of the currently available digital color normalization methods for the bright field histopathology. We describe the proposed color normalization methodologies in detail together with the lesion and tissue types used in the corresponding experiments. We also present the quantitative validation approaches for each of the proposed methodology where available.

This research presents a systematic review of the application of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs). VOCs, compounds with high vapor pressure at ambient temperature and normal pressure, are widely present in a variety of industrial and living environments. VOCs are not only hazardous to the environment but also have a severe impact on human health.

Inorganic phosphori are widely used in food, whose quantitative detection method is of significance. This work presents a Sm-DDB (HDDB = 1,3-di(3',5'-dicarboxylphenyl)benzene), which acts as a ratiometric fluorescence sensor to monitor PO, HPO, and (PO) with high sensitivity. The determination factors of pH, MOF dosage, and fluorescence response time are optimized as 7.

A composite nanomaterial of Prussian blue@gold nanoparticles (PB@Au) with catalytic and photothermal properties was proposed, which combined with anti-matrix interference aptamers to achieve robust specificity and sensitivity in the detection of Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium). The detection probe, PB@Au-Aptamer (PB@Au-Apt), was designed to exhibit high specificity for the target and catalyze the signal generation to produce a color change, thereby enabling rapid detection.

Patients with localized scleroderma on the face typically exhibit asymmetrical linear or patchy skin lesions and indentations on areas such as the scalp and forehead, with a smooth, waxy surface. In the early stages, medication is used to control the progression of the disease. In later stages, plastic surgery is performed to repair facial skin lesions.

Background: The ability to discriminate very similar objects by implementing the binding between their multiple features is assumed to be supported by the medial temporal lobe (MTL). MTL is the first brain region that shows abnormal tau accumulation in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, whether binding ability is impaired since the preclinical stage of AD and relates to MTL tau burden is not well-established.
