Dynamics of pesticides decomposition in sweet cherry fruits at different technologies of long-term storage, ultra-low oxygen and modified atmosphere packing, and after post-harvesting application of 1-methylcyclopropen and ozone has been studied. We assumed that type of pesticide and fruit storage conditions may have a profound effect on pesticide residues content. Therefore, levels of residues after applying combinations of active ingredients including acetamiprid, boscalid, cyprodinil, fenhexamid, fenpyrazamine, fludioxonil, fluopyram, pyraclostrobin, pirimicarb, tebuconazole, thiacloprid, and trifloxystrobin were monitored. We found these contents below tolerated maximum residue limits when applied at recommended times and depended on period prior to withdrawal. Low contents of acetamiprid, boscalid, fenpyrazamine, thiacloprid, pirimicarb, and fludioxonil were found when fruit were stored in modified atmosphere packages. Ozone affected degradation of tebuconazole, pyraclostrobin, and cyprodinil. However, differences between storage regimens were not statistically significant (p ≥ 0.05). Kinetic of degradation was studied with fruits stored after treatment with 1-methylcyclopropen and ozone.

Background: Except host and environmental factors influencing individual human cytokine responses, pre-analytical handling procedures and detection methods also affect cytokine levels.

Methods: In this study, we used cytometric bead array (CBA) and chemiluminescence (ECL). These two methods were used to test serum and plasma samples from 50 healthy adult volunteers and 50 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients' cytokine levels.

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) offer several advantages over traditional lithium-ion batteries, including a more uniform sodium distribution, lower-cost materials, and safer transportation options. A promising development in SIBs is the use of hard carbons as anode materials due to their low insertion voltage and larger interlayer spacing, which improve sodium-ion insertion. Traditionally, hard carbons are made from costly carbon sources, but recent advancements have focussed on using abundant bio-waste, like coffee grounds.

Peptides are widely used in biomaterials due to their ease of synthesis, ability to signal cells, and modify the properties of biomaterials. A key benefit of using peptides is that they are natural substrates for cell-secreted enzymes, which creates the possibility of utilizing cell-secreted enzymes for tuning cell-material interactions. However, these enzymes can also induce unwanted degradation of bioactive peptides in biomaterials, or in peptide therapies.

Background: Effective hemorrhage protocols prioritize immediate hemostatic resuscitation to manage hemorrhagic shock. Prehospital resuscitation using blood products, such as whole blood or alternatively dried plasma in its absence, has the potential to improve outcomes in hemorrhagic shock patients. However, integrating blood products into prehospital care poses substantial logistical challenges due to issues with storage, transport, and administration in field environments.

Recent Advances on Characterization Techniques for the Composition-Structure-Property Relationships of Solid Electrolyte Interphase.

The Solid Electrolyte Interphase (SEI) is a nanoscale thickness passivation layer that forms as a product of electrolyte decomposition through a combination of chemical and electrochemical reactions in the cell and evolves over time with charge/discharge cycling. The formation and stability of SEI directly determine the fundamental properties of the battery such as first coulombic efficiency (FCE), energy/power density, storage life, cycle life, and safety. The dynamic nature of SEI along with the presence of spatially inhomogeneous organic and inorganic components in SEI encompassing crystalline, amorphous, and polymeric nature distributed across the electrolyte to the electrolyte-electrode interface, highlights the need for advanced in situ/operando techniques to understand the formation and structure of these materials in creating a stable interface in real-world operating conditions.
