This article presents a new method for the simpler and faster determination of tin in beverages using EDXRF. Absorption coefficients for aqueous calibration samples were calculated and shown to be nearly identical to those of the beverage samples, thus permitting the use of aqueous standard solutions for external calibration. Beverage samples could then be measured directly using the external calibration. Determination of tin using this method takes 4 min. The LOD and LOQ were 4 mg L and 15 mg L respectively, and the precision was 3.89%. Different canned beverages (cold coffee, various fruit juices) were measured and the results compared to the concentrations obtained using ICP-OES after digestion. The two methods showed good compatibility, thus establishing the newly developed method as a rapid, simple, and accurate method for the determination of tin in beverages.

Bronchiectasis Exacerbation Increases the Risk of Adverse Renal Outcomes-Results From a Large Territory-Wide Cohort Study.

Introduction: Bronchiectasis exacerbation (BE) is associated with unfavorable sequelae in other organs such as the cardiovascular system; data regarding its impact on adverse term renal outcomes, however, is lacking.
Methods: A territory-wide retrospective cohort study was conducted in Hong Kong between 1/1/1993 and 31/12/2017. All patients with bronchiectasis followed in the public healthcare system in 2017 were classified as "Exacerbators" or "Non-Exacerbators," and their adverse renal outcomes (renal progression [decrease in eGFR by 30 mL/min lasted for more than 12 months during follow up], acute kidney injury [AKI], and annual rate of eGFR decline) in the ensuing 7 years were compared.

In this paper, a novel molecularly imprinted polymer membrane modified glassy carbon electrode for electrochemical sensors (MIP-OH-MWCNTs-GCE) for epinephrine (EP) was successfully prepared by a gel-sol method using an optimized functional monomer oligosilsesquioxane-AlO sol-ITO composite sol (ITO-POSS-AlO). Hydroxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (OH-MWCNTs) were introduced during the modification of the electrodes, and the electrochemical behavior of EP on the molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensors was probed by the differential pulse velocity (DPV) method. The experimental conditions were optimized.

Current practices to screen for financial toxicity are inconsistent because of the lack of a validated and clinically integrated screening tool. This analysis aimed to create and assess an abbreviated version of the validated Comprehensive Score for Financial Toxicity (COST) tool, a measure of financial toxicity used for research purposes, which could easily be added into often-lengthy clinical screening workflows.

Rational: People are widely exposed to parabens in their daily life, but parabens are endocrine disrupting chemicals that pose a threat to human health. Therefore, establishing a rapid screening method to enhance monitoring of parabens is necessary. Herein, a covalent organic framework (COF) nanofilm-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS) method was established to screen parabens in personal care products (PCPs).
