A simple procedure for the simultaneous determination of major metabolites of dopamine and serotonin in plasma, i.e. 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid, and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenylacetic acid, was developed. The method is based on rapid isolation of the compounds by one-step clean-up on a small C18 column, followed by high-performance liquid chromatography with dual electrochemical detection. The system is readily used for clinical applications.

The soil quality of forest land is directly related to the growth of forest trees and the local ecological environment. This paper proposes an intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic aggregation method for heterogeneous linguistic assessment information, to solve the multi-index assessment problem containing heterogeneous linguistic information. Based on this method, the soil quality of forest land can be evaluated reasonably.

This study investigated how contraction frequency impacts the mechano-energetics of cardiac muscle performing mechanical work. Left-ventricular trabeculae were isolated from rat hearts and mounted in our work-loop calorimeter to assess their function at physiological temperature (37°C) across three stimulation frequencies, 2 Hz, 3.5 Hz and 5 Hz, in a randomised sequence.

Deuterium (H) and phosphorus (P) magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) are complementary methods for evaluating tissue metabolism noninvasively in vivo. Combined H and P MRS would therefore be of interest for various applications, from cancer to diabetes. Loop coils are commonly used in X-nuclei studies in the human body for both transmit and receive.
