A new gas analytical technique for infrared laser spectroscopy combined with differential pressure measurement (IR-DP) is developed. The basic idea of this technique is that the absorption process of molecules by laser irradiation is monitored as the pressure enhancement in a gas cell by use of a differential pressure gauge. The system is composed of a tunable IR laser system, sample cell, differential pressure gauge, and data accumulation system. Using this system, the measurements of the IR absorption spectra for cyclohexane (50 ppm) and ammonia (100 ppm) are demonstrated. By comparison of the current IR-DP spectra with conventional Fourier-transform infrared spectra, the spectral resolution is found to be about 3 cm-1, reflecting the laser resolution. Furthermore, the estimated pressure enhancement based on a simple model is consistent with the experimental results. These results suggest that the newly developed IR-DP technique is one of a powerful tool for trace gas detection.

Introduction: Neurogenic bladder dysfunction is a prevalent condition characterized by impaired bladder control resulting from neurological conditions, for example, spinal cord injury or traumatic brain injury (TBI). Detrusor overactivity is a typical symptom of central nervous system damage. A lesion affecting the pontine neural network typically results in loss of tonic inhibition exerted by the pontine micturition center and causes involuntary detrusor contractions.

Two-photon phosphorescence lifetime microscopy has been a key tool for studying cerebral oxygenation in mice. However, the accuracy of the partial pressure of oxygen (pO) measurements is affected by out-of-focus signal. In this work, we applied reconfigurable differential aberration imaging to characterize and correct for out-of-focus signal contamination in intravascular pO imaging.

Introduction: Broad ligament fibroids are unusual types of leiomyomas. They usually present as pelvic masses with pressure-related symptoms. The purpose of this case report is to shed light on the importance of keeping these fibroids in mind when approaching pelvic and abdominal masses, despite their low prevalence.

Phenolic compounds (PC) were analyzed by UHPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS in two sorghum genotypes, harvested in two growing seasons (GS) at five distinct days after flowering (DAF) to evaluate how genotype/GS influences the PC synthesis and antioxidant capacity during grain growth. Total phenolic contents were strongly correlated with antioxidant capacity ( > 0.9, < 0.
