The adverse effects of Al ions on human health necessitate the development of ultra-sensitive detection methods for Al ions. In this regard, the compact and portable design of the detection substrate is of utmost importance for achieving in-situ and sensitive detection of Al ions. In our study, we have successfully developed a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) platform with gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) that was modified with histidine (His) and 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) for the SERS detection of Al ions.

The gambler's fallacy is a prevalent cognitive bias in betting behaviors, characterized by the mistaken belief that an independent and identically distributed random process exhibits negative serial correlation. This misconception often arises when individuals observe a series of realized outcomes from the process. We study how varying the quantity of information about the sample of realized outcomes influences individuals' propensity towards the gambler's fallacy in repeated betting.

The number of beef × dairy animals entering feedlots has increased, but the response of beef × dairy cattle to growth-promoting implants has not been well characterized. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of breed type and implant administration on live performance, carcass characteristics, sera metabolites, and immunohistochemical (IHC) outcomes. Forty-eight steers (average body weight [BW] = 417±22 kg) were sorted by breed into groups of predominantly Angus (B), black-hided beef × primarily Holstein (B×D), or Holstein (D), and half of the steers within each breed type were administered a steroidal implant.
