Simulation can be an excellent teaching and learning method if the scenarios are created appropriately. It starts with assessing the learner's needs and is followed by laying down objectives embracing the SMART principles. While creating a scenario, it is essential to consider the different aspects of realism, such as physical, contextual and psychological aspects. Using moulages and props helps in creating physical realism. The simulation expert should also be aware of the learner's experience and decide the SimZones for their learners based on their level of clinical expertise. The scenario progression needs to be laid down in stages. The role of the embedded participant needs to be decided priori, and the embedded participant should be well-versed in their role. Pilot testing is a crucial step in simulation development as it keeps the simulation expert aware of the loopholes in the simulation scenario before running.

Hybridized triboelectric nanogenerators for simultaneously scavenging droplet and wind energies.

Front Chem

January 2025

Information Science Academy, China Electronics Technology Group Corporation, Beijing, China.

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have attracted great attention due to the simple manufacturing process, low cost, and diverse forms of energy harvesting. However, the energy collected by individual TENG is relatively limited, making it necessary to develop new method to enhance the energy harvesting capability of TENG. Here, we design a hybridized TENG that integrates a droplet-driven TENG and a wind-driven TENG, which exhibits excellent electrical performance.

The solute carrier (SLC) family of membrane proteins is a large class of transporters for many small molecules that are vital for cellular function. Several pathogenic mutations are reported in the glucose transporter subfamily SLC2, causing Glut1-deficiency syndrome (GLUT1DS1, GLUT1DS2), epilepsy (EIG2) and cryohydrocytosis with neurological defects (Dystonia-9). Understanding the link between these mutations and transporter dynamics is crucial to elucidate their role in the dysfunction of the underlying transport mechanism, which we investigate using molecular dynamics simulations.

Development of Chitosan-Polyacrylic Acid Complex Systems for Enhanced Oral Delivery of and Probiotics.

Drug Des Devel Ther

January 2025

Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Pharmaceutics, Faculty of Pharmacy, ‎Applied ‎Science Private University, Amman, 11937, Jordan.

Introduction: The beneficial effects of probiotics are encountered by their low viability in gastrointestinal conditions and their insufficient stability during manufacturing, throughut the gastrointestinal transit, and storage. Therefore, novel systems are highly required to improve probiotics delivery.

Methods: In this study, Lactobacillus gasseri (L), Bifidobacterium bifidum (B), and a combination of L+B were encapsulated in chitosan (CS)-polyacrylic acid (PAA) complex systems (CS-PAA).

Water used in post-harvest handling and processing operations is an important risk factor for microbiological cross-contamination of fruits, vegetables and herbs (FVH). Industrial data indicated that the frozen FVH sector is characterised by operational cycles between 8 and 120 h, variable product volumes and no control of the temperature of process water. Intervention strategies were limited to the use of water disinfection treatments such as peroxyacetic acid and hydrogen peroxide.

A dynamic mass balance model was developed to simulate contamination dynamics in the process water of fresh and frozen fruits, vegetables and herbs (ffFVH) during processing and handling operations. The mass balance relates to the flux of water and product in a wash tank and the number of microbial cells released in the water, inactivated by the water disinfectant or transferred from the water back to the product. Critical variables describing microbial dynamics in water are: (i) the chemical oxygen demand (COD), as an indicator of the concentration of organic matter; (ii) free chlorine (FC) and particularly its antimicrobial fraction, hypochlorous acid (HOCl); and (iii) the microbial population levels.
