The Fukushima soils have been collected from Namie and Futaba areas for the radiocaesium and uranium isotope ratio studies. The 137Cs activity concentration of soil samples ranged from 6 ± 1 to 756 ± 14 kBq/kg. The uranium isotope ratios are measured using multi collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The activity ratio (234U/238U) of the Fukushima soils is calculated from the measured 234U/238U isotope ratio. Activity ratio varied from 0.98 to 1.02 which indicates that 234U and 238U are in secular equilibrium. The 235U/238U atomic ratio of the Fukushima soils did not show any heterogeneity compared with the natural terrestrial ratio even with high level of 137Cs in soils.

To discover novel inhibitors of pyruvate kinase (PK) as fungicidal candidates, a series of 2-thiazol-2-yl-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were designed by a prediction model with PK (RsPK) as a protein target and as a ligand. Fungicidal screening indicated that , , , , , , , and exhibited equal or higher activity compared to against , , or . To our surprise, showed comparable activity to flutriafol with an EC of 0.

Among the various cations, the Fe ion is one of the most critical transition metal ions in living cells for many cellular functions and enzymatic activities. The decrease or overloading of Fe can lead to different disruptions in humans. Also, Fe, highly toxic, is very common in all industrial wastewater.

The haematopoietic cell transplantation comorbidity index (HCT-CI) score predicts transplant survival in non-malignant diseases, including IEIs. We hypothesised that immune dysregulation pre-transplant may also influence transplant outcomes.

Purpose: To explore the dynamic and parametric characteristics of [F]F-FAPI-42 PET/CT in lung cancers.
Methods: Nineteen participants with newly diagnosed lung cancer underwent 60-min dynamic [F]F-FAPI-42 PET/CT. Time-activity curves (TAC) were generated for tumors and normal organs, with kinetic parameters (K, K, K, K, K) calculated.

Introduction: Music is known to impact attentional state without conscious awareness. Listening to music encourages the brain to secrete neurotransmitters improving cognition and emotion.
Aim Of Work: Analysis of QEEG band width while listening to two music types, identifying different cortical areas activated and which genre has a similar effect to relaxed EEG.
