Cells of Amycolatopsis mediterranei CBS 42575 were immobilized on glass wool for the production of rifamycins B and SV. Glass wool (CORNING type) of 8 microns in diameter has a better entrapment capacity for microbial cells of microorganism than the other types of glass wool used. The most suitable amount of glass wool was 0.8 g/50 ml. The best initial cell concentration used as inoculum was 40 mg cells/50 ml. Repeated batch production of rifamycins by immobilized cells on glass wool was carried out for 6 repeated batches. The results showed that reduction of batch time from 96 h to 48 h does not decrease rifamycin production by immobilized cells.

Phosphate invert glasses (PIGs) have been attracting attention as materials for bone repair. PIGs have a high flexibility in chemical composition because they are composed of orthophosphate and pyrophosphate and can easily incorporate various ions in their glass networks. In our previous work, incorporation of niobium (Nb) into melt-quench-derived PIGs was effective in terms of controlling their ion release, and Nb ions promoted the activity of osteoblast-like cells.

Objective: With the increasing energy surrounding the development of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) models, the use of the same external validation dataset by various developers allows for a direct comparison of model performance. Through our High Throughput Truthing project, we are creating a validation dataset for AI/ML models trained in the assessment of stromal tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (sTILs) in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC).

Materials And Methods: We obtained clinical metadata for hematoxylin and eosin-stained glass slides and corresponding scanned whole slide images (WSIs) of TNBC core biopsies from two US academic medical centers.

A limited number of published studies have evaluated concentrations of airborne fibers in outdoor air, with even fewer assessing typical air concentrations in the ambient air near fiberglass wool manufacturing facilities. Building upon the assessment by Switala et al. (1994), area samples for airborne fiber concentrations (diameters of less than 3 µm, lengths greater than 5 µm, and aspect ratios equal to or greater than 5 to 1) were collected at fixed locations along the fence lines of three fiberglass wool manufacturing facilities in the United States.

Determination of ultrafine particle number emission factors from building materials in standardized conditions.

When comparing the particle emissivity for different materials and/or mechanical activities, a serious methodological issue emerges due to the dynamic nature of solid aerosols. Particle size distribution and concentration depend on initial particle emission that constantly evolves due to aerodynamic collisions. In this context, we propose a methodological approach and an experimental setup that enables to assess the release of fine/ultra-fine particles maintaining a steady-state inhalable mass concentration, here chosen at the Swiss occupational exposure level value for biopersistent granular particles (OEL: 10 mg/m3) in a controlled ventilation chamber.

Article Synopsis
  • Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a significant global health issue in the 21st century, affecting the burden of disease and mortality linked to bacterial infections across various regions.
  • A comprehensive study was conducted to assess the impact of AMR from 1990 to 2021, analyzing data from 204 countries on deaths and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) related to 22 pathogens and 84 pathogen-drug combinations.
  • The researchers employed statistical modeling and extensive datasets to estimate AMR's burden, even in areas lacking direct data, considering multiple factors such as sepsis-related deaths and antibiotic resistance rates.
