Study Question: Does one-step warming (OW), a simplified embryo warming protocol, adversely affect survival and developmental potential in vitrified cleavage or blastocyst stage embryos compared to standard multi-step warming (SW)?
Summary Answer: OW showed no detrimental effects on survival and developmental potential compared to SW in cleavage and blastocyst stage embryos.
What Is Known Already: While standard embryo warming protocols involve a multi-step procedure using a stepwise osmotic solution to avoid a rapid influx of water into the embryo, recent studies suggest that eliminating the stepwise warming process does not reduce embryo survival and embryo transfer outcomes. However, previous reports have focused primarily on pregnancy rates, and a more detailed analysis of the effects of rapid osmotic pressure changes on embryos is necessary to standardize the protocol.

The initial electron transfer (ET) processes in reaction centers (RCs) of Chloroflexus (Cfl.) aurantiacus were studied at 295 K using femtosecond transient absorption (TA) difference spectroscopy. Particular attention was paid to the decay kinetics of the primary electron donor excited state (P) and the formation/decay of the absorption band of the monomeric bacteriochlorophyll a anion (B) at ~ 1035 nm, which reflects the dynamics of the charge-separated state PB.

Background: The COVID-19 has put emphasis on pivotal needs for diagnosis and surveillance worldwide, with the subsequent shortage of diagnostic reagents and kits. Therefore, it has become strategic for the countries to access diagnostics, expand testing capacity, and develop their own diagnostic capabilities and alternative rapid accurate nucleic acid diagnostics that are at lower costs. Here, we propose a visual SARS-CoV-2 detection using a one-step fast multiplex reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) amplification coupled to lateral flow immunoassay detection on a PCRD device (Abingdon Health, UK).

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have garnered considerable interest in the field of heterogeneous catalysis. This study detail the synthesis of single-atom Pd catalysts supported on metal oxides using the Flame Spray Pyrolysis (FSP) method. This technique allows for the preparation of TiO with abundant oxygen vacancies by incorporating a hydrogen-rich atmosphere at high temperature (>2000 K) utilizing the quenching ring, which enhances the catalyst synthesis process.

One of the main challenges in animal breeding systems is determining estradiol (E2) in livestock samples as simple and minimally invasive as possible, Thus, a nonenzymatic biosensor screen-printed electrode (SPE) was developed by modifying nanohybrid palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs), and carbon dots anchored on a nanosilica particle (PdNPs/C.dots/SiO), denominated SPE/PdNPs/C.dots/SiO, and successfully tested for the direct detection of estradiol in livestock samples.
