Using laser spectroscopy for gas detection, short-term rapid changes in ambient temperature, system noise, and circuit aging are likely to cause line broadening, which affects the accuracy of gas concentration measurement. Firstly, the correction method of the impact on line broadening is analyzed theoretically. A method is proposed to eliminate the line broadening caused by the wavelength shift based on the first harmonic detection. After removing the background noise and filtering, the standard harmonic fitting and broadening elimination are carried out. Meanwhile, a methane gas detection system is established and experiments are conducted. The experimental results show that after the standard harmonic fitting, the maximum value of the baseline is reduced from 2 to 0.078, and the maximum absolute value of the baseline in the absorption-free region is reduced from 2.07 to 0.072. The standard deviation after the broadening correction is 0.047, and the standard deviation without considering the effect of broadening is 0.203, which proves that the accuracy of trace gas detection is improved and has good engineering practical value.

Objectives: The aim of the study was to explore the alteration of microbiota and SCFA in gut and inflammation in acute exacerbation chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) patients, and to test the hypothesis that a disorder of gut microbiota will lead to the alteration of SCFA, which will aggravate inflammation in AECOPD patients.
Methods And Results: 24 patients with AECOPD and 18 healthy volunteers were included in the study. Gut microbiota were analyzed by 16S rDNA and serum was used to detect levels of inflammatory factors by ELISA.

Novel psychoactive substances (NPS) have historically been difficult compounds to analyze in forensic toxicology. The identification, detection and quantitation of these analytes and their metabolites has been difficult due to their rapid emergence, short life span and various potencies. Advancements in analytical instrumentation are fundamental to mitigating these NPS challenges by providing reliable identification and sensitivity.

Quantifying the number of active sites is a crucial aspect in the performance evaluation of single metal-atom electrocatalysts. A possible realization is using adsorbing gas molecules that selectively bind to the single-atom transition metal and then probing their surface density using spectroscopic tools. Herein, using in situ X-ray photoelectron (XPS) and near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy, we detect adsorbed CO gas molecules on a FeNC oxygen reduction single atom catalyst.

Nanofluidics is an interdisciplinary field of study that bridges hydrodynamics, statistical physics, chemistry, materials science, biology, and other fields to investigate the transport of fluids and ions on the nanometric scale. The progress in this field, however, has been constrained by challenges in fabricating nanofluidic devices suitable for systematic investigations. Recent advances in two-dimensional (2D) materials have revolutionized the development of nanofluids.

Background: Emphysematous esophagitis is a very rare disease and there are only a few previous reports in the literature. Previously reported cases have resulted in emphysematous esophagitis following anterior cervical procedures or ingestion of hydrogen peroxide (HP). In this report, we describe a case in which a patient with emphysematous esophagitis accompanied by gastritis without the above predisposing factors was treated with conservative treatment.
