Modelling the diffusion-relaxation magnetic resonance (MR) signal obtained from multi-parametric sequences has recently gained immense interest in the community due to new techniques significantly reducing data acquisition time. A preferred approach for examining the diffusion-relaxation MR data is to follow the continuum modelling principle that employs kernels to represent the tissue features, such as the relaxations or diffusion properties. However, constructing reasonable dictionaries with predefined signal components depends on the sampling density of model parameter space, thus leading to a geometrical increase in the number of atoms per extra tissue parameter considered in the model.

Given rising consumer demands for meat safety and quality assurance, developing an intuitive, cost-effective, and user-friendly sensor platform for real-time monitoring of perishable meat freshness is important. Herein, this study developed an innovative chitosan/agarose/blueberry anthocyanin (CS/AG/BA) hydrogel label system for visual real-time freshness tracking of perishable proteins through smartphone-assisted colorimetric analysis. Through systematic optimization of CS/AG compositional ratios (3:7-7:3) and pH conditions (2.

Synthetic cathinones (SCs) are drugs of abuse that act on the central nervous system, producing psychoactive effects similar to those of amphetamines. Their greater accessibility compared with the traditional amphetamine-type stimulants has contributed to their increasing popularity in recent years. The analysis of SCs in biological samples is essential for documenting their consumption.
