A novel method was developed for determination of aflatoxin B1, B2, G1, and G2 (AFB1, AFB2, AFG1, and AFG2) in wheat using inkjet-based dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) coupled with ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. A drop-on-demand jetting device was used to form a cloudy solution in traditional DLLME by injecting extraction solvent (10 μL) as ultrafine droplets (∼20 μm diameter) at high frequency into sample solution. The method was validated using wheat as a representative matrix, which was pretreated with acetonitrile/water solution. Good linearity was observed over the studied range (0.06-6 μg/kg), and the limits of quantification (0.06-0.18 μg/kg) were below the maximum level established by the European Union for cereal. Satisfactory recoveries, ranging from 83.2% to 93.0% with relative standard deviations below 4.6%, were obtained for all compounds. The method, which is convenient and reliable and has low solvent consumption, represents a new direction for the development of traditional DLLME technology.

299In Duchenne muscular dystrophy, dystrophic muscle phenotypes are closely associated with the exhaustion of muscle stem cells. Transplantation of muscle stem cells has been widely studied for improving muscle regeneration, but poor cell survival and self-renewal, rapid loss of stemness, and limited dispersion of grafted cells following transplantation have collectively hindered the overall success of this strategy. Optimized mechanisms for maintaining and improving stem cell function are naturally present in the microenvironment of the stem cell niche in healthy muscles.

Wastewater management is of considerable economic and environmental importance for the dyeing industry. Digital textile printing (DTP), which is based on sublimation transfer and does not generate wastewater, is currently being explored as an inkjet-based method of printing colorants onto fabric. It finds wide industrial applications with most poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and nylon fibers.
