Aerosols are readily transported on airstreams through building sanitary plumbing and sewer systems, and those containing microbial pathogens (known as bioaerosols) are recognized as contributors to i…
The aim of this study was to compare aerosol exposure with or without an aerosol box in a pressurized/depressurized room during aerosol-generating procedures using an experimental model. Cake flour (a…
Respiratory particle generation and dispersal during nasoendoscopy and swab testing is studied with high-speed video and laser light illumination. Video analysis reveals droplet formation in three man…
We report high optical enhancement in Ag/Au alloys and porous gold nanostructures using Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) technique. Scanning electron microscopy investigation shows the forma…
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been widely used in various electronic equipment. The development of an effective method for predicting the remaining useful life (RUL) of LIBs can ensure the normal …
Background: Decontamination and reuse of respirators have been proposed to mitigate the shortage of respirators during pandemics. The U.S. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)…
Regularly updated data on stroke and its pathological types, including data on their incidence, prevalence, mortality, disability, risk factors, and epidemiological trends, are important for evidence-…
Air quality changes with human health risk assessment were investigated. The measurement results obtained by the Regional Environmental Protection Inspectorate (REPI) in Kraków and our deposited parti…
We tested the hypothesis that an elevation in albumin synthetic rate contributes to increased plasma albumin content during exercise-induced hypervolemia. Albumin synthetic rate was measured in seven …
This study focuses on PRL, GH, beta-endorphin and cortisol in maternal blood and amniotic fluid during human pregnancy. Maternal blood and amniotic fluid samples were obtained from 18 normal pregnant …
1. The present study investigated the effect of prior administration of nifedipine on AVP-induced ACTH release in seven normal volunteers. Three protocols were used: 20 mg oral nifedipine; 0.14 presso…
We studied the leaching of copper and zinc from particles of discarded boat paint added to tap water (pH 7.3) and rain water (pH=4.7), simulating conditions encountered during the hosing or runoff of …
A sensitive (method detection limit, 2.0 microg As L(-1)) colorimetric determination of trace As(v) and As(iii) concentrations in the presence of soluble phosphorus (P) concentrations in soil/water ex…
A column-switching high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the determination of oxiracetam in plasma and urine. A sample of plasma (250 microliters) or urine (10 microliters) …
Earlier reports indicate that calves derived from in vitro produced (IVP) embryos are more susceptible to neonatal disease than calves produced after artificial insemination (AI) or natural mating. Th…
The circadian rhythms of food and 1% NaCl intake, and urine, Na+, Cl- and K+ excretion were followed up in male Wistar rats before and one week after bilateral adrenalectomy at 4-hour intervals during…
UNLABELLED: Size-segregated distribution of ambient particulate matter (PM) was determined using a micro-orifice uniform deposition impactor (MOUDI) and a nano-MOUDI in southern Taiwan. Eleven water-s…
To investigate factors associated with sodium sensitivity, 157 subjects were studied while receiving 10 and 200 mEq sodium diets. Measurements included blood pressure (BP), forearm vascular resistance…
Coronary arteriovenous difference in stable end-products of nitric oxide metabolism, nitrate and nitrite, was increased in ischemic canine hearts. In accordance with the reduction of coronary blood fl…
