Article Abstract

Through the flow injection analysis experiments, we discovered that an unsaturated complex of Cu(II) and polyamines (spermine, spermidine, putrescine) had a strongly catalytic effect on luminol-H(2)O(2) chemiluminescence (CL) reaction, and that the CL intensity is proportional to the concentrations of polyamines. Based on the automatic formation of an unsaturated complex of polyamines and Cu(II) when the solution containing polyamines passed through a column packed with solid Cu(OH)(2), a new flow injection chemiluminescence analysis method was proposed for the determination of polyamines. The effects of pH, buffer concentration, the concentration of chemiluminescence reagent, and the influence of mixing coil length were examined. Under optimal conditions, the linear range was from 1.0 x 10(-7) mol L(-1) to 1.0 x 10(-5) mol L(-1), and the detection limits were 0.17, 0.38, 0.44 pmol for spermine, spermidine, and putrescine, respectively. Compared with other methods, the advantages of this method include convenience, time-saving and low cost.

Introduction: Benchtop and animal models have traditionally been used to study the propagation of Onyx Liquid Embolic Systems (Onyx) used in the treatment of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM). However, such models are costly, do not provide sufficient detail to elucidate how variations in Onyx viscosity alter flow dynamics, and rely on some trial-and-error, resulting in elongated timelines for product development.

Objectives: The goal of this study was to leverage Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations to predict the behavior of different Onyx formulations.

Incarcerated or threatened bowel obstruction with suspected intestinal ischemia requires prompt surgical intervention. This retrospective case series, involving 8 patients undergoing emergency laparotomy, evaluated the feasibility of combining indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence and Doppler ultrasound for intraoperative bowel viability assessment. Indocyanine green was injected intravenously.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) exclusively infects hepatocytes and produces large quantities of subviral particles containing its surface antigen (HBsAg). T cells play a central role in controlling HBV infection but can also mediate liver injury and contribute to disease progression. However, the mechanisms that regulate T-cell responses to eliminate the virus without causing immunopathology during acute HBV infection remain poorly defined.

Objective: To determine optimal CT perfusion (CTP) imaging parameters for evaluating the canine prostate and to assess the diagnostic utility of CTP combined with cytopathologic evaluation and B-Raf proto-oncogene (BRAF) gene mutation testing in dogs with prostate adenocarcinoma.

Methods: For this study, 10 male dogs were enrolled, comprising 4 healthy Beagles and 6 client-owned dogs with suspected prostatic neoplasia. Computed tomography perfusion was performed in the healthy dogs using varied contrast agent doses and injection durations.
