Very short-term reactive forecasting of the solar ultraviolet index using an extreme learning machine integrated with the solar zenith angle.

Environmental research
Exposure to erythemally-effective solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) that contributes to malignant keratinocyte cancers and associated health-risk is best mitigated through innovative decision-support systems, with global solar UV index (UVI) forecast...

Enhanced photostability, radical scavenging and antitumor activity of indole-3-carbinol-loaded rose hip oil nanocapsules.

Materials science & engineering. C, Materials for biological applications
This study aimed to develop poly(ε-caprolactone) nanocapsules loaded with indole-3-cabinol (I3C) using rose hip oil (RHO) or medium chain triglycerides (MCT) as oil core. In vitro radical scavenging activity (DPPH method), hemolysis, and antitumor ef...

Classifying Force Spectroscopy of DNA Pulling Measurements Using Supervised and Unsupervised Machine Learning Methods.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Dynamic force spectroscopy (DFS) measurements on biomolecules typically require classifying thousands of repeated force spectra prior to data analysis. Here, we study classification of atomic force microscope-based DFS measurements using machine-lear...

Methodological considerations for using umu assay to assess photo-genotoxicity of engineered nanoparticles.

Mutation research. Genetic toxicology and environmental mutagenesis
In this study we investigated the feasibility of high-throughput (96-well plate) umu assay to test the genotoxic effect of TiO2 engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) under UV light (full spectrum) and visible light (455 nm). Exposure of TiO2 ENPs to up to ...

Characterization of digital camera-based UV illumination fluorescent imaging for concentration measurement with limit of detection, specificity and precision.

European journal of pharmaceutical sciences : official journal of the European Federation for Pharmaceutical Sciences
Nowadays the increased need for pharmaceutics requires fast, cheap and reliable quality control systems to investigate the final product's quality. The generally used methods like high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and other coupled technique...

Ultraviolet in swallowtail butterflies: contrasted dorso-ventral evolution highlights a trade-off between natural and sexual selection on visual cues.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution
The evolutionary dynamics of color pattern diversification in animals is strongly influenced by visual interactions within and among species. While much attention has been given to color pattern variation in the human-visible range, perception outsid...

Harnessing AI to revolutionize photocatalytic degradation of Tetracycline via optimized UV/ZrO/NaOCl reaction pathways.

Scientific reports
This paper assesses the presentation of Gradient Boosting Regression (GBR), Ridge Regression (RR), and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) models in improving the photocatalytic destruction of antibiotic utilizing a UV/ZrO₂/NaOCl system. The GBR model ...

Assessing occupational hazards in welding operations: A machine learning-based approach for worker safety in Indian foundries.

Work (Reading, Mass.)
BACKGROUND: Quantitatively analyzing the impact of UV radiation and noise during welding operations is essential to assess the exposure, identify potential hazards, and develop targeted safety protocols to ensure worker safety and adherence to safety...

Rapid SARS-CoV-2 Inactivation in a Simulated Hospital Room Using a Mobile and Autonomous Robot Emitting Ultraviolet-C Light.

The Journal of infectious diseases
The spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) since 2019 has made mask-wearing, physical distancing, hygiene, and disinfection complementary measures to control virus transmission. Especially for health facilities, we eva...

Kinetic study of dye removal using TiO supported on polyethylene terephthalate by advanced oxidation processes through neural networks.

Water science and technology : a journal of the International Association on Water Pollution Research
This work investigated the efficiency of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) as support material for TiO films in the photocatalytic degradation of red Bordeaux and yellow tartrazine dyes. The optimum operating conditions were determined by a factorial ...
