Label-free characterization of cell subpopulations is a very promising biomedical approach. Nowadays, there are several label-free methods based on different physical properties such as size, density, stiffness, etc. allowing the characterization of biological objects. However, fluorescence properties are the most suitable feature for the label-free study of tissue and cells. Understanding the autofluorescence level peculiarities of normal and pathological / live and dead cells can become a helpful tool for cells' metabolic activity, viability evaluation, and diagnostics of a number of diseases. In this study, we applied a series of mouse cell lines (RAW 264.7 - macrophages, L929 - fibroblasts, C2C12 - myoblasts, and B16-F10 - melanoma) to compare cell autofluorescence of live and dead cells under 488 nm laser excitation and found the difference between their autofluorescence depending on a cell state and type.

Purpose: SLM 3D printing technology is one of the most widely used implant-making technologies. However, the surfaces of the implants are relatively rough, and bacteria can easily adhere to them; increasing the risk of postoperative infection. Therefore, we prepared a near-infrared photoresponsive nano-TiO coating on the surface of an SLM 3D-printed titanium alloy sheet (Ti6Al4V) via a hydrothermal method to evaluate its antibacterial properties and biocompatibility.

Introduction: In winter 2021/2022, a wolf population in the primeval Białowieża Forest in Poland was struck by an outbreak of severe mange caused by mixed infestations of and mites. We present an epidemiological analysis of this mange which caused significant morbidity and mortality.

Material And Methods: Ten sites known for wolf activity were monitored by camera trapping.

Background: An evidence gap exists concerning the timing of delivery at 37-42 weeks and the risk of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in offspring.

Objective: To determine the association between timing of delivery in low-risk pregnancies at term (37-42 weeks) gestations and ADHD in offspring.

Methods: This population-based cohort study comprised 1,424,453 singletons in Sweden and 403,765 in British Columbia (BC), Canada, live-born at 37-42 completed weeks to low-risk pregnant women between 2000 and 2018.

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a devastating complication of epilepsy with possible sex-specific risk factors, although the exact relationship between sex and SUDEP remains unclear. To investigate this, we studied Kcna1 knockout (Kcna1) mice, which lack voltage-gated Kv1.1 channel subunits and are widely used as a SUDEP model that mirrors key features in humans.

spp. are facultative pathogens that contribute to the pathogenesis of multiple bovine diseases, including the bovine respiratory disease complex, and have been shown to form biofilms. Biofilm formation is associated with increased antibiotic resistance in many organisms, but accurate determination of antimicrobial susceptibility in biofilms is challenging.
