On the ground results derived from an analysis of metrological characteristics of the biochemical automatic unit systems and of their influence on the end-result with due regard for actual operating conditions a formula for the automatic unit error was deduced. The specificity of technical requirements to be met by automatic meters is shown and a new complex set of metrological characteristics of the concentration meter are given. At the same time permissible values for metrological characteristics of the meter satisfying medical requirements are defined. The new complex set of metrological characteristics for the biochemical automatic unit concentration meter allows it to make a change from the absolute photometric scale of the device to the one in relative units.

Single-molecule sequencing technology, a novel method for gene sequencing, utilizes nano-sized materials to detect electrical and fluorescent signals. Compared to traditional Sanger sequencing and next-generation sequencing technologies, it offers significant advantages, including ultra-long read lengths, rapid sequencing, and the absence of amplification steps, making it widely applicable across various fields. By examining the development and components of single-molecule sequencing technology, it becomes clear that its unique characteristics provide new opportunities for advancing metrological traceability.

Turbomachinery engines face significant failure risks due to the combination of thermal loads and high-amplitude vibrations in turbine and compressor blades. Accurate stress distribution measurements are critical for enhancing the performance and safety of these systems. Blade tip timing (BTT) has emerged as an advanced alternative to traditional measurement methods, capturing blade dynamics by detecting deviations in blade tip arrival times through sensors mounted on the stator casing.

External quality assessment (EQA) enhances patient safety through the evaluation of the quality of laboratory-based and point of care testing. Regulatory agencies and accreditation organizations utilize the results and the laboratory's response to them as part of assessing the laboratory's fitness to practice. In addition, where EQA samples are commutable and the assigned value has been determined using reference measurement procedures (RMPs), EQA data contributes to the verification of metrological traceability of assays as part of the post-market surveillance of diagnostic (IVD) medical devices (IVD-MDs).

The study examines the morphometric development of the anterior cranial fossa in human fetuses and its clinical implications. The anterior cranial fossa, crucial for protecting the frontal lobes, was analyzed during prenatal development using innovative computer image processing techniques. We hypothesized that the growth of the anterior cranial fossa is not uniform throughout fetal development and that changing geometric relationships are important for possible therapeutic interventions in cases of congenital defects.

The red prickly pear fruit ( L. Mill), endemic from Mexico's semi-desert regions and present in North Africa and Southern Europe, particularly Italy and Spain, is a valuable source of nutrients, bioactive compounds, and polysaccharides. This study used non-destructive techniques like microscopy and Raman and infrared (IR) spectroscopy to characterize polysaccharides extracted from two red prickly pear varieties.
