Cluster arrays composed of metal nanoparticles are promising for application in sensing devices because their interesting surface plasmon characteristics. Herein, we report the spontaneous formation cluster gold colloids on flat substrates by vertical-deposition convective self-assembly. In this technique, under controlled temperature, a hydrophilic substrate is vertically immersed colloid suspension. form when particle concentration extremely low (in order 10(-6)-10(-8) v/v). These arranged...
Hydrogen (H2) is promising as an energy source for the next generation. Medical applications using H2 gas can be also considered a clean and economical technology. Since based on electrolysis of water production has potential to expand medical applications, technology been developed in order safely dilute it supply living body by inhalation, respectively. inert molecule which scavenge highly active oxidants including hydroxyl radical (·OH) peroxynitrite (ONOO−), convert them into water....
Background: This study aimed to assess the antibody response SARS-CoV-2 vaccines among healthcare workers (HCWs) from multiple outpatient clinics in Japan, examining effects of baseline characteristics (e.g., sex, age, underlying condition, smoking history, occupation) and prior infections. Methods: A total 101 HCWs provided serum at four time points between October 2020 July 2023. received two six doses mRNA vaccine (BNT162b2 or mRNA-1273). Anti-nucleocapsid (N) anti-spike (S) IgG...
Two kinds of basic dendritic (or starburst) all-para-phenylene-linked oligotriarylamines, which are generated from para-phenylenediamine and triphenylamine as core units, respectively, were prepared, the electrochemical, spectroelectrochemical, ESR spectroscopic measurements carried out with respect to their application hole transport materials in optoelectronic devices such organic light-emitting devices. The prepared oligoarylamines exhibits multiredox-active properirs, stably oxidizable...
ABSTRACT To evaluate Ni dynamics at the subcellular level, distribution and speciation of were determined in wild‐type (WT) Ni‐tolerant (NIT) tobacco BY‐2 cell lines. When exposed to low but toxic levels Ni, NIT cells found contain 2.5‐fold more (14% whole‐cell values) their walls than WT (6% values). In addition higher apoplast, a proportion (94%) symplastic was localized vacuoles (81%). The concentration cytosolic significantly lower (18 nmol g −1 FW) that (85 FW). silico simulation showed...
Baloxavir marboxil (baloxavir), approved as an anti-influenza drug in Japan March 2018, can induce reduced therapeutic effectiveness due to PA protein substitutions. We assessed substitutions clinical samples from influenza-infected children and adults pre- post-baloxavir treatment, examining their impact on fever symptom duration. During the 2022-2023 influenza season, predominant circulating subtype detected by cycling-probe RT-PCR was A(H3N2) (n = 234), with a minor circulation of...
Despite the fact that we have reported on dangers of explosion hydrogen gas inhalers, inhalers with explosive hazards are, as a matter fact, still being sold today. In this study, investigated past reports inhaler accidents to clarify causes these incidents. As result investigation, found central cause was leakage inside inhaler. Although it is said concentration between 10% and 75%, does not explode above 75% due lack oxygen, confirmed through series ignition experiments explosions can...
Peroxide-bound heme species have been considered difficult to detect under physiological conditions because of their intrinsically transient properties. Cytochrome c552 (cyt c552), from Thermus thermophirus HB8, bearing a mutation an alanine at Met69 (M69A) reacts with hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) generate detectable hydroperoxo-ferric ([Fe(3+)--OOH]) ambient temperature. EPR measurements during appropriate reaction periods reveal that the [Fe(3+)--OOH] is in preequilibrium state between...
Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is characterized by unexplained and malaise that persist for more than 6 months with neuropsychiatric symptoms, including slight fever, headache, weakness, impaired thinking, depression.[1,2] The onset severity of these symptoms vary reduce the quality life as well social, occupational, personal activities those affected, some becoming bedridden.[1,2] number ME/CFS patients in United States estimated to be between 836,000 2.5...
Changes in heme coordination state and protein conformation of cytochrome P450cam (P450cam), a b-type protein, were investigated by employing pH jump experiments coupled with time-resolved optical absorption, fluorescence, circular dichroism, resonance Raman techniques. We found partially unfolded form (acid form) ferric at 2.5, which Cys–-heme bond the native was ruptured. When raised to 7.5, acid refolded through distinctive intermediate. Formations similar intermediate forms also observed...
