To investigate the effect of steam processing on the form, structure and biological properties of selenopolysaccharides in the Chlamys nobilis, we conducted purification and compositional analysis of both raw and steamed samples. The results showed that the raw (SS-3) and steamed (SZ-3) groups had the highest selenium content in the purified fraction. Comparison of the structural characterization shows that selenium can exist in both O-Se-O and Se-O-C chemical bonds, but the absorption strength of the chemical bonds decreased after steam treatment, and steaming can convert β-type pyranose to α-type in selenopolysaccharides. In vitro simulation of gastrointestinal digestion, SZ-3 fractions showed a higher bioaccessibility compared to SS-3 fractions, and also the cellular transport and uptake rates of selenium SZ-3 > SS-3 > sodium selenite were significant in the Caco-2 cell model. In conclusion, steaming can alter the structure and selenium content of selenopolysaccharides without affecting their bioavailability.

Organic-inorganic halocuprates(I) form a promising class of light-emitting materials with high photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield. However, the understanding of their emission properties and the PL mechanism is still limited. Here, we investigate thin films of bis(tetrapropylammonium) hexa-µ-bromo-tetrahedro-tetracuprate(I), [N(C3H7)4]2[Cu4Br6], which has a zero-dimensional (0D) molecular salt structure containing [Cu4Br6]2- ions.

Handedness.

Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, Ruhr University Bochum, Bochum, Germany; Research Center One Health Ruhr, Research Alliance Ruhr, Ruhr University Bochum, Bochum, Germany.

This chapter offers an overview of the literature on human handedness and its assessment in clinical neurologic practice and research. There are two major forms of handedness: hand preference, which describes a subjective preference to use one hand over the other for skilled motor activities like writing, and hand skill, which describes objectively measured mother skill. This chapter gives an overview of widely used questionnaires and tests to assess hand preference and hand skill, as well as suggestions on how to determine handedness categories such as left-handed, right-handed, and mixed-handed based on the results of these questionnaires and tests.

The capacity for language constitutes a cornerstone of human cognition and distinguishes our species from other animals. Research in the cognitive sciences has demonstrated that this capacity is not bound to speech but can also be externalized in the form of sign language. Sign languages are the naturally occurring languages of the deaf and rely on movements and configurations of hands, arms, face, and torso in space.

Objectives: Maxillary transverse deficiency is a common malocclusion frequently observed in orthodontic clinics. Miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) not only produces greater skeletal expansion but also offers advantages such as simple miniscrew implantation without flap elevation, enhanced patient comfort, and an expanded age range and indications for palatal expansion. However, the fixed connection between the expander and the miniscrews makes the expander difficult to remove, significantly hindering its clinical application.
