Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are air pollutants that affect the human health and environment, their accurate determination in outdoor indoor environments is important. This study presents a methodology for sampling analysis of semi-volatile compounds ambient with emphasis on polycyclic hydrocarbons, collected low-volume pumps (4.8 m

The use of fetal bovine serum (FBS) in cell culture is being questioned for scientific and ethical reasons, prompting the exploration alternative approaches. Nevertheless, influence FBS on functioning, especially fish cells, has not been comprehensively examined. This study aims to evaluate impact lipidome PLHC-1 spheroids investigate cellular molecular responses plastic additives presence/absence FBS. Lipidomic analyses were conducted using liquid chromatography coupled with a...

Fish liver cell lines are valuable tools to understand the toxicity of chemicals in aquatic vertebrates. While conventional 2D cultures grown monolayers well established, they fail emulate toxic gradients and cellular functions as in-vivo conditions. To overcome these limitations, this work focuses on development Poeciliopsis lucida (PLHC-1) spheroids a testing platform evaluate mixture plastic additives. The growth was monitored over period 30 days, 2-8 days old sized between 150 250 µm...

Although peritoneal dialysis (PD) is recognized as an effective renal replacement therapy (RRT) alternative to haemodialysis (HD), its prevalence around 15% in most of the industrialized countries. In French-speaking part Belgium, PD clearly underused with a 8.7% 2009. The main objectives this work were evaluate nephrologists' perceived obstacles implementation and reflect on possible actions towards development. A computer-based 33-item questionnaire was sent by e-mail all nephrologists...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate a heart transplanted patient who ran 20-km race 9 months after surgery. Thirty-six healthy male subjects were studied during same run and served as control group. Biochemical variables determined in blood urine samples collected before race. Post-exercise urea increased by 23% (P < 0.05) group but remained unchanged patient. Blood lactate far more (7.07 mmol/L) than (2.53 mmol/L). exercise induced 5.46- 0.67-fold increase creatine Phosphokinase...
