Method for the Determination of Carbonyl Compounds in E-Cigarette Aerosols.

Journal of chromatographic science
Low levels of thermal degradation products such as carbonyls (formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein, crotonaldehyde) have been reported in e-cigarette aerosols. The collection and analysis of e-cigarette aerosol carbonyls are often adapted from method...

Detecting Lung Diseases from Exhaled Aerosols: Non-Invasive Lung Diagnosis Using Fractal Analysis and SVM Classification.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Each lung structure exhales a unique pattern of aerosols, which can be used to detect and monitor lung diseases non-invasively. The challenges are accurately interpreting the exhaled aerosol fingerprints and quantitatively correlating the...

Soil and litter emission sources as important contributors to ozone production from volatile organic compounds in island tropical forests.

Environmental research
While studies have confirmed that volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted directly by tropical island forest vegetation significantly influence ozone (O) production and climate change through atmospheric oxidation processes, the environmental effec...

Advancing low-cost air quality monitor calibration with machine learning methods.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Low-cost monitors for measuring airborne contaminants have gained popularity due to their affordability, portability, and ease of use. However, they often exhibit significant biases compared to high-cost reference instruments. For optimal accuracy, t...

Development of an automated photolysis rates prediction system based on machine learning.

Journal of environmental sciences (China)
Based on observed meteorological elements, photolysis rates (J-values) and pollutant concentrations, an automated J-values predicting system by machine learning (J-ML) has been developed to reproduce and predict the J-values of OD, NO, HONO, HO, HCHO...

An agglutinate magnetic spray transforms inanimate objects into millirobots for biomedical applications.

Science robotics
Millirobots that can adapt to unstructured environments, operate in confined spaces, and interact with a diverse range of objects would be desirable for exploration and biomedical applications. The continued development of millirobots, however, requi...

Analysis of the advantages and disadvantages in application of oxygen-driven aerosol and aerosol inhalation by air compressor for the pediatric asthma.

Pakistan journal of pharmaceutical sciences
Present study is done to analyze the advantages and disadvantages in application of oxygen-driven aerosol and aerosol inhalation by air compressor for the pediatric asthma. A total of 180 patients with pediatric bronchial asthma were randomized into ...

A prototype single-port device for pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy. Technical feasibility and local drug distribution.

Acta cirurgica brasileira
PURPOSE: To evaluate the technical feasibility and homogeneity of drug distribution of pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) based on a novel process of intraperitoneal drug application (multidirectional aerosolization).

[Modeling and Predicting of MODIS Leaf Area Index Time Series Based on a Hybrid SARIMA and BP Neural Network Method].

Guang pu xue yu guang pu fen xi = Guang pu
The modeling and predicting of vegetation Leaf area index (LAI) is an important component of land surface model and assimilation of remote sensing data. The MODIS LAI product (i.e. MOD15A2) is one of the most widely used LAI data sources. However, th...
