The authors evaluated the method of the determination of the electric conductivity of purchased milk for the estimation of the hygienic aspects of mlik quality and for mass diagnosis of the inflammatory diseases of dairy cow mammary glands. The variability coefficient of duplicates varied from 1.37 to 3.09%. The study of the dependence of milk conductivity measurement on milk temperature revealed a statistically highly significant positive correlation between the values of these two factors. In the temperature range from 30 degrees C to 35 degrees C the coefficients of correlation ranged from 0.951 to 0.996. Furthermore, interference caused by milk acidity was examined during a five-day incubation of samples at 25 degrees C. A statistically significant difference was observed from the third hour of incubation (P less than 0.05) and a statistically highly significant difference from the fourth hour of incubation (P less than 0.01). the evaluation of the diagnostic value of the method of the measurement of electric conductivity in purchased milk revealed a positive correlation to the content of chloride ions (r = 0.69) and to the number of the cellular elements of milk (r = 0.33).

Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and C-reactive protein (CRP) are biomacromolecules known as cancer and inflammatory markers. Thus, they play a crucial role in early cancer diagnosis, post-treatment recurrence detection, and tumor risk assessment. This paper describes the development of an ultrasensitive and selective imprinted paper-based analytical device (PAD) as impedance sensor for determination of CEA and CRP in serum samples for point-of-care testing (POCT).

Hypothesis: Complex emulsions usually consist of aqueous phases, like oil-in-water-in-oil (o/w/o) and water-in-oil-in-water (w/o/w), serving foundational roles in colloid science. Oil-in-oil-oil (o/o/o) emulsions offer new avenues for non-aqueous reagents but face challenges in balancing the forces between multiple organic phases.
Experiments: In this work, we generate o/o/o emulsions by integrating an AC electric field with a double cross-junction microchannel.

The scope of this study was to determine the diagnostic performance of ABSI for obesity and sarcopenic obesity, compared to the results of bioimpedance analysis (BIA) and BMI, by sex and age group. It involved a cross-sectional study with 12,793 participants in the second round of ELSA-Brasil (Longitudinal Study of Adult Health in Brazil), which obtained measurements of body fat percentage using BIA and anthropometry, verifying the performance of the diagnostic tests in order to compare the indices. The results showed that for obesity in men in all three age groups, the sensitivity was below 49%.

This study presents an innovative glucose detection platform, featuring a highly sensitive, non-enzymatic glucose sensor. The sensor integrates nickel nanowires and a graphene thin film deposited on the gate region of an extended-gate electric double-layer field-effect transistor (EGEDL-FET). This unique combination of materials and device structure enables superior glucose sensing performance.

Lithium-ion battery cathodes are manufactured by coating slurries, liquid suspensions that typically include carbon black (CB), active material, and polymer binder. These slurries have a yield stress and complex rheology due to CB's microstructural response to flow. While optimizing the formulation and processing of slurries is critical to manufacturing defect-free and high-performance cathodes, engineering the shear rheology of cathode slurries remains challenging.
