Presence of diphenyl phosphate and aryl-phosphate flame retardants in indoor dust from different microenvironments in Spain and the Netherlands and estimation of human exposure.

Environment international
Phosphate flame retardants (PFRs) are ubiquitous chemicals in the indoor environment. Diphenyl phosphate (DPHP) is a major metabolite and a common biomarker of aryl-PFRs. Since it is used as a chemical additive and it is a common impurity of aryl-PFR...

Nitric oxide-releasing injectable hydrogels with high antibacterial activity through in situ formation of peroxynitrite.

Acta biomaterialia
UNLABELLED: Nitric oxide (NO) is an endogenous molecule with many critical biological functions that depend on its concentration. At high levels, NO provides broad-spectrum antibacterial effects through both its pathogen inhibition and killing abilit...

Epileptic seizure detection using DWT-based approximate entropy, Shannon entropy and support vector machine: a case study.

Journal of medical engineering & technology
In this work, we have used a time-frequency domain analysis method called discrete wavelet transform (DWT) technique. This method stand out compared to other proposed methods because of its algorithmic elegance and accuracy. A wavelet is a mathematic...

A flexible ontology for inference of emergent whole cell function from relationships between subcellular processes.

Scientific reports
Whole cell responses arise from coordinated interactions between diverse human gene products functioning within various pathways underlying sub-cellular processes (SCP). Lower level SCPs interact to form higher level SCPs, often in a context specific...

Vitamin D: Effects on human reproduction, pregnancy, and fetal well-being.

The Journal of steroid biochemistry and molecular biology
Pregnancy places exceptional demands on vitamin D and calcium availability; thus, their deficiencies during pregnancy threaten the woman and her fetus. Globally, vitamin D and other micronutrient deficiencies are common during pregnancy, especially i...

Verification and large scale clinical evaluation of a national standard protocol for Salmonella spp./Shigella spp. screening using real-time PCR combined with guided culture.

Journal of microbiological methods
Salmonella spp./Shigella spp. are often associated with food poisoning and fecal-oral transmission of acute gastroenteritis that requires strict monitoring, especially among people who would handle food and water. In 2014, the National Health and Fam...

Superhuman AI for heads-up no-limit poker: Libratus beats top professionals.

Science (New York, N.Y.)
No-limit Texas hold'em is the most popular form of poker. Despite artificial intelligence (AI) successes in perfect-information games, the private information and massive game tree have made no-limit poker difficult to tackle. We present Libratus, an...

Triple-stapled quadrilateral anastomosis: a new technique for creation of an esophagogastric anastomosis.

Esophagus : official journal of the Japan Esophageal Society
BACKGROUND: Esophagogastric anastomosis performed after esophagectomy is technically complex and often the source of postoperative complications. The best technique for this anastomosis remains a matter of debate. We describe a new all-stapled side-t...
