Intercomparative study on the determination of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons in marine shellfish tissue.

Published: July 1988

Twenty-five laboratories were sent 2 materials, one an acetone powder of lobster digestive gland, the other, the oil which had been extracted during preparation of the powder. Each laboratory was requested to measure the levels of a suite of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in both materials. The response was poor with only 10 laboratories submitting results. Both intra- and interlaboratory precisions were poor; the interlaboratory error was so great as to preclude statistical analysis of the error. Relative standard deviations for oil results determined by liquid chromatography ranged from 39 to 96%.

Nanographenes and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons exhibit many intriguing physical properties and have potential applications across a range of scientific fields, including electronics, catalysis, and biomedicine. To accelerate the development of such applications, efficient and reliable methods for accessing functionalized analogs are required. Herein, we report the efficient synthesis of functionalized small nanographenes from readily available iodobiaryl and diarylacetylene derivatives a one-pot, multi-annulation sequence catalyzed by a single palladium catalyst.

Background: Huanglian-ejiao decoction (HED) is a Chinese traditional medicinal formula evolved from the Shanghan Lun (Treatise on Febrile Diseases). However, HED ultimate mechanism of action remained indistinct. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether HED could exert anti-inflammatory effects on 2,4,6-Trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis (UC) model through the regulation of CD4T subsets and gut microbiota.

Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) is a fast and simple sample preparation technique that enables the enrichment of analytes, and it is used in combination with other detection techniques to provide accurate and sensitive analytical methods. SPME is widely used in environmental monitoring, food safety, life analysis, biomedicine, and other applications. The extractive coating is the core of the SPME technique, and the properties of the extractive coating greatly influence extraction selectivity and efficiency, as well as the enrichment effect.

The study presents two imported malaria cases with a history of travel to malaria-endemic areas and replied late response to treatment. In the blood preparations of the first case, dot-shaped nucleus structures were identified in the erythrocytes, which looked different from the classical erythrocytic forms. In the SD-Pf/Pan test, bands were obtained for both P.
