To evaluate the local temperature at corneal tissue after applying single laser pulse from six commercial devices; Medilex™, Katana laser-soft, MEL90, Technolas-Teneo317, Alcon EX500, and PulzarZ1. The temperature distribution is simulated using finite element solution of the Penne's bio-heat transfer equation on a 3-D model of human cornea using the manufacturer's assigning parameters. The obtained results showed that the heating effect of Katana laser soft is 40% lower than MEL90 and Pulzar™ Z1, while the broad beam Medilex™ showed the minimum temperature rise especially at 248-nm laser radiation. The change in laser parameters selected for ablation has significant effect on the corneal local temperature. The broad beam-based device produces lower local corneal temperature than other flying spot types.

Some winter rapeseed (Brassica rapa) varieties can endure extremely low temperatures (-20°C to -32°C). However, because of a lack of mutant resources, the molecular mechanisms underlying cold tolerance in B. rapa remain unclear.

Peroxyacetyl Nitrate (CHC(O)ONO, PAN), a typical secondary product of photochemical reactions, is well known to be a better photochemical indicator due to the only secondary photochemical source in the troposphere. Studies on PAN pollution are sparse in northwest China, resulting in a limited understanding of photochemical pollution in recent years. Herein, the measurement of PAN, O, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), NO, other related species, and meteorological parameters were conducted from May 1 to August 31, 2022, at an urban site in Lanzhou.

Tumor hypoxia is one of key challenges in deep tumor photodynamic therapy (PDT), and how to fix this issue is attracting ongoing concerns worldwide. This work demonstrates dually fluorinated unimolecular micelles with desirable and stable oxygen-carrying capacity, high cellular penetration, and integrative type I & II PDT for deep hypoxic tumors. Dually fluorinated star copolymers with fluorinated phthalocyanines as the core are prepared through photoinitiated electron/energy transfer-reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization under irradiation with NIR LED light at room temperature, followed by assembly into unimolecular micelles.

Altered DNA dynamics at lesion sites are implicated in how DNA repair proteins sense damage within genomic DNA. Using laser temperature-jump (T-jump) spectroscopy combined with cytosine-analog Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) probes that sense local DNA conformations, we measured the intrinsic dynamics of DNA containing 3 base-pair mismatches recognized in vitro by Rad4 (yeast ortholog of XPC). Rad4/XPC recognizes diverse lesions from environmental mutagens and initiates nucleotide excision repair.
