Spiramycin (SPI) fermentation residue (SFR) is classified as hazardous waste in China because of the residual antibiotics in it. SFR disposal in the traditional way is costly and wasteful of resources. In this study, pyrolysis method was adopted to covert SFR to biochar for SPI removal from wastewater, and the SPI adsorption performance was investigated. The results showed that the optimal pyrolysis temperature was 700 °C as the prepared biochar BC700 exhibited the highest SPI removal efficiency. The specific surface area of BC700 was 451.68 m/g, and the maximum adsorption capacity was 147.28 mg/g. The adsorption mechanism involved electrostatic interaction, pore filling, π-π interaction, hydrogen bonding, and the participation of C-C and O-CO functional groups in the adsorption. No residual SPI was detected in BC700 indicating the detoxification of SFR was achieved. Moreover, after recycling for 5 times, the SPI removal efficiency was still higher than 80.0%. Therefore, this study could provide a promising method for SFR disposal.

enterica spp. rely on translocation of effector proteins through the SPI-2 encoded type III secretion system (T3SS) to achieve pathogenesis. More than 30 effectors contribute to manipulation of host cells through diverse mechanisms, but interdependency or redundancy between effectors complicates the discovery of effector phenotypes using single mutant strains.

Single-pixel imaging (SPI), which offers high-throughput measurement capabilities and a simple structure, has promising applications in near-infrared single-photon imaging. Nevertheless, the low saturation count rate of near-infrared single-photon detectors often leads to photon pile-up effects. This paper delves into the influence of these effects on passive SPI under both random matrix modulation and Hadamard matrix modulation and offers corresponding noise removal solutions.

Glioblastoma (GBM) poses significant challenges regarding complete tumor removal due to its heterogeneity and invasiveness, emphasizing the need for effective therapeutic options. In the last two decades, fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS), employing fluorophores such as 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) to enhance tumor delineation, has gained attraction among neurosurgeons. However, some low-grade tumors do not show any accumulation of the tracers, and the lack of patient stratification represents an important limitation.

Background: CT and MRI modalities are important diagnostics tools for exploring the anatomical and tissue properties, respectively of the human beings. Several advancements like HRCT, FLAIR and Propeller have advantages in diagnosing the diseases very accurately, but still have enough space for improvements due to the presence of inherent and instrument noises. In the case of CT and MRI, the quantum mottle and the Gaussian and Rayleigh noises, respectively are still present in their advanced modalities of imaging.
