The high incidence of cardio- or cerebro-vascular diseases is positively correlated with hyperlipoproteinemia. A large-scale screening of blood donor's populations could be used for the prevention of the atherogenic disease. Therefore lipoproteins electrophoresis on cellogel was compared with serum levels of triglycerides, cholesterol and lipids in 1184 blood donors (792 men, 392 women). The electrophoretic pattern was found abnormal in 32 cases (25 men, 7 women). It was a type IIb hyperlipoproteinemia, according to the classification of the World Health Organization. In these 32 subjects, serum triglycerides, cholesterol and lipids concentrations were significantly higher (p less than 0,001) than in 41 other donors with a normal electrophoretic pattern. A good positive correlation was found between high blood pressure or obesity or blood group O and abnormal electrophoretic pattern. Lipoproteins electrophoresis on cellogel appears to be a suitable test (easy, fast and economical) in large-scale screening for dyslipidemia in subjects over 40, or at least in cases of mild hypertension or obesity.

ssDNA Capture Dynamics by Graphene Nanopores: The Role of Electrophoresis and Electro-osmotic Flow.

Efficient capture of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) is crucial for high-throughput sequencing, which influences the speed and accuracy of genetic analysis. Electrophoresis (EP) and electro-osmotic flow (EOF) have a significant impact on the translocation behavior of ssDNA through the nanopore. Experimentally, dynamically tracking these two effects remains challenging, and conventional numerical methods also struggle to capture their dynamic properties in the presence of DNA.

Glycans are known to be fundamental for many cellular and physiological functions. Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) currently encompassing over 160 subtypes, are characterized by glycan synthesis and/or processing defects. Despite the increasing number of CDG patients, therapeutic options remain very limited as our knowledge on glycan synthesis is fragmented.

The current study aimed to detect the mutagenic impacts of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), which is produced by Aspergillus group fungi, via a high-plant genotoxicity test. Different durations of treatment (3 h, 6 h, and 12 h) were used to treat the Vicia faba root tips with varying concentrations of Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) following the approved protocol for plant assays published by the International Program on Chemical Safety (IPCS) and the World Health Organization (WHO). The data obtained indicated that AFB1 not only has the ability to induce various alterations in the process of mitosis, ranging from increasing to decreasing mitotic and phase indices but also leads to many mitotic aberrations.

LiCoPO and LiNiPO phosphate pigments have colorations very close to the primary colors of the subtractive system: magenta and yellow, respectively. These two pigments are therefore of great interest in a variety of applications, including e-reader devices. However, the need to reduce their crystallite size in order to formulate stable electrophoretic inks has revealed that aggressive milling results in significant color changes, particularly for cobalt-based pigments.

Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a leading cause and major complication of joint replacement failure. As opposed to standard-of-care systemic antibiotic prophylaxis for PJI, we developed and tested titanium femoral intramedullary implants with titania nanotubes (TNTs) coated with the antibiotic gentamicin and slow-release agent chitosan through electrophoretic deposition (EPD) in a mouse model of PJI. We hypothesized that these implants would enable local gentamicin delivery to the implant surface and surgical site, effectively preventing bacterial colonization.
