In this study, nerve conduits of chitosan and collagen composites with biocompatibility and biodegradability were fabricated. The effects of material composition and surface morphology on the axonal growth and directionality of rat epinephric pheochromocytoma PC12 were investigated. The cells were separated by a PDMS structure to simulate nerve injury, and the growth of axons of PC12 cells was observed under the separation of large gaps. At the same time, mitochondria extracted from osteosarcoma cybrid cells (C2-GFP) were added to the culture to investigate the effect of healthy mitochondria on axon differentiation and growth. The experimental results showed that the chitosan-collagen composite film can promote the growth of PC12 axons more effectively than the pure chitosan film. Cell culture results at different groove widths also showed that smaller grooves resulted in more axon numbers and longer axon lengths. Nerve injury simulation experiments showed that the nerve repair could be almost completed after 12 days of culture. Copyright © 2024 by ASME.

Clinical Biomarkers to Evaluate Next Generation Inhaled Tobacco Products’ Effect in the Oral Cavity: a Narrative Review

引用

Current Oral Health Reports 2024年第1期11卷 30-39页

作者： Sarles, S. Emma Hensel, Edward C. Rahman, Irfan Robinson, Risa J. Biomedical and Chemical Engineering PhD Program Rochester Institute of Technology Rochester NY United States Department of Mechanical Engineering Respiratory Technologies Lab Rochester Institute of Technology Rochester NY United States Department of Environmental Medicine Rahman Lab University of Rochester Medical Center Rochester NY United States

Purpose of Review: Biomarkers in the oral cavity of users of next generation tobacco products, such as electronic cigarettes (EC), provide data about effects on oral and systemic health and help predict long-term health effects, such as cardiovascular, respiratory, and periodontal disease. Despite oral cavity health provides, translation of findings to regulatory outcomes around EC is lacking. A review of the current state of the art in use of clinical biomarkers of the oral cavity was conducted. This identified inconsistencies and gaps in tobacco regulatory science to address how to improve clinical studies for screening tobacco products and studying disease. Recent Findings: The review identified that saliva and buccal biopsies provide dependable biomarkers of oral and systemic health when several parameters of health are standardized and considered. Inflammatory cytokines in oral tissue and biofluids of EC users are conflicting due to differences in sample collection and analysis techniques. Salivary C-reactive protein levels provide information about systemic inflammation and risk of cardiovascular disease, but analysis of this biomarker in the oral cavity does not appear in the current literature. The oral microbiome plays a significant role in human health and may be a useful tool to study systemic effects of tobacco products non-invasively, yet inconsistencies in reporting metrics make studies difficult to compare or translate into tangible outcomes. Effects of tobacco product use on hard dental tissue are not widely investigated despite correlations observed between e-cigarette use and broken teeth. Summary: This review provides a comprehensive update on clinical biomarkers in systemic and oral diseases associated with emerging nicotine products. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

In this paper, Graphene Aerogel (GA) is prepared and investigated for its potential employment for solar energy harvesting applications. GA can be applied in solar cells applications as an absorption material and as a catalyst for fuel cells. GA is characterized by its extraordinary electrical conductivity and mechanical strength, in addition to a large surface and a low density. The electrical, mechanical, thermal, and absorption characteristics of GA can be tuned depending on the manufacturing process. Hence, GA is utilized in a multitude of applications such as: supercapacitors, air purification, oil and dye absorption from water, and water waste treatment. GA is also an excellent candidate for superior electrodes. In addition, GA are environmentally friendly materials since they are 100% recyclable and do not produce any ozone-depleting compounds. In this paper, GA is synthesized, characterized, and assessed for solar energy harvesting applications with the aid of absorption and Cyclic voltammetry (CV) tests. Results show that GA has immense potential in solar application due to its low band gap and outstanding optical and electrochemical properties. © 2022 IEEE.

Improving the charge diffusion length and water oxidation kinetics of bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) is essential to achieve better photoelectrochemical catalytic ability for water oxidation. Establishing heterojunctions and incorporating co-catalysts with BiVO4 create facile charge transfer paths and generate more water oxidation reactions. In this work, nickel molybdenum oxide (NM) and carbon quantum dot (CQD) are firstly deposited on BiVO4 by hydrothermal and soaking processes to design an efficient co-catalyst/photocatalyst system for water oxidation. The depositing amount of CQD is optimized to balance contributions of CQD and NM as the hole sink and the light-to-electron generator, respectively. The highest photocurrent densities of 2.2 and 3.9 mA/cm2 are achieved for BiVO4/NM/CQD in the electrolyte without and with hole scavenger, respectively. The BiVO4 electrode only shows a photocurrent density of 1.2 mA/cm2 in the electrolyte without hole scavenger. The best photoelectrochemical catalytic ability of BiVO4/NM/CQD is approached by the reduced charge-transfer resistance and charge recombination as well as the enhancement on carrier densities. The excellent long-term stability with the photocurrent retention of 90% under illumination for 24 h is also obtained for BiVO4/NM/CQD. This study opens a blueprint on designing efficient catalysts for water oxidation by incorporating heterojunction and co-catalyst materials simultaneously. © 2023 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC

Bismuth vanadate with suitable band edges is one of the efficient photocatalysts for water oxidation. Establishing heterojunction can improve electron diffusion lengths and photocatalytic ability of BiVO4. In this work, nickel molybdenum oxide (Ni–Mo–O) and BiVO4 heterojunction is established by the hydrothermal process with different nickel to molybdenum precursor ratios. The Ni–Mo–O/BiVO4 electrode is applied as photoanodes for water oxidation. The growth mechanism of Ni–Mo–O on BiVO4 surface is proposed. The Ni–Mo–O deposition amount is optimized regarding to light absorbance and charger transportation. The largest photocurrent density of 1.72 mA/cm2 at 1.23 VRHE is obtained for the optimal NiMoO4/BiVO4 electrode (NM12) in the electrolyte without hole scavenger, while the pure BiVO4 electrode only shows a photocurrent density of 0.90 mA/cm2. The NM12 electrode even presented an impressive photocurrent density of 5.39 mA/cm2 at 1.23 VRHE in the electrolyte with the hole scavenger, owing to the abundant active sites and higher light absorbance as well as the favorable synergistic effects from its suitable Ni to Mo ratio. The NM12 electrode also shows excellent long-term stability with the photocurrent retention of 83% after illumination for 6500 s. This work opens a blueprint for establishing a novel heterojunction with the adjustable metal ratio and coverage on BiVO4. © 2023 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC

Titanium dioxide with suitable band edges is one of promising photocatalysts for water splitting. Nanotubes with one-dimensional structure can induce efficient charge transfers and hollow centers can provide large surface area for surface reactions. Modifying Ti foils for anodization can enhance light utilization of TiO2 nanotube photoelectrodes. In this work, it is firstly to fabricate TiO2 nanotube photoelectrodes on acid-etched Ti foils by anodization (MNT) for photoelectrochemical catalyzing water splitting. Different acid-etching durations are applied on Ti foils to induce various rugged surfaces. The resulting photoelectrodes present largely enhanced light utilization than that fabricated by the pristine Ti foil. The anodization duration is also optimized to find suitable lengths of MNT. The smallest overpotential of 524.7 mV at 10 mA/cm2 and Tafel slope of 167 mV/dec are obtained for the optimal MNT photoelectrode. The TiO2 nanotubes grown on the pristine Ti foil shows the overpotential of 679.3 mV at 10 mA/cm2 and Tafel slope of 285 mV/dec. This result opens a blueprint for raising the photocatalytic ability by simply modifying the surface property of the conductive substrate. Other modifications may be applicable to enhance the roughness of Ti foils for growing more efficient MNT array as photocatalysis of water splitting. © 2023 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC

The development of compact portable ECG monitoring devices often entails the pursuit of downsizing measurement systems. This objective frequently involves additional efforts, such as custom PCB fabrication for analog front-end systems and exploration of alternative electrode types and configurations. In this study, we investigate the feasibility of using the BioAmp EXG Pill, a miniature commercial analog front-end board, in comparison to the well-established AD8232. Our analysis focuses on comparing ECG signals from five adult subjects, examining both frequency components using the welch estimation method and ECG parameters extracted from time-domain signals. The results reveal that both devices provided similar outcomes in time-domain measurements, with a slightly lower standard deviation observed in the AD8232. In terms of spectral density, both devices proficiently captured low-frequency components within the 0–3 Hz range. However, in higher-frequency domains, the AD8232 demonstrated superior capability in capturing finer frequency details.

In this study, a rapid diagnosis platform was developed for the detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7. An electrical double layer (EDL)-gated field-effect transistor-based biosensor (BioFET) as a point-of-care testing device is demonstrated with its high sensitivity, portability, high selectivity, quick response, and ease of use. The specially designed ssDNA probe was immobilized on the extended gate electrode to bind the target complementary DNA segment of E. coli, resulting in a sharp drain current change within minutes. The limit of detection for target DNA is validated to a concentration of 1 fM in buffer solution and serum. Meanwhile, the results of a Kelvin probe force microscope were shown to have reduced surface potential of the DNA immobilized sensors before and after the cDNA detection, which is consistent with the decreased drain current of the BioFET. A 1.2 kb E. coli duplex DNA synthesized in plasmid was sonicated and detected in serum samples with the sensor array. Gel electrophoresis was used to confirm the efficiency of sonication by elucidating the length of DNA. Those results show that the EDL-gated BioFET system is a promising platform for rapid identification of pathogens for future clinical needs. © 2023 American Chemical Society

Characterisation and issues with the use of a conductivity meter to monitor the level of liquid in a cane diffuser bed

引用

Transactions of the Royal Society of South Africa 2020年第3期75卷 282-294页

作者： Segura Angel, Diana Maritza Fonseca, Rafael F. PhD in Sciences in the Mechanical Engineering Program Brazil University of São Paulo Av. Trab São-Carlense Brazil

The extraction of sucrose in a cane diffuser depends mainly on the percolation rate, and its optimisation requires the monitoring and control of the liquid holdup with the cane bed. However, most conventional methods that measure liquid levels are not suitable for this application. Operators control the observed liquid level through diffusers’ sight glasses, adjusting the spray position according to visual inspections. The method is inefficient, and a more accurate and reliable measurement process should be implemented towards maximising the sucrose extraction. This article proposes a novel methodology that uses conductance measurements as indicators of the liquid level in cane beds. Conductance, observed liquid level and flow rate variations were analysed under several conditions, such as steady and unsteady states. The effects of the main variables on the observed liquid level and their mathematical relationship were assessed for the validation of the measurements, and experimental tests were conducted on a BMA cane diffuser at Maidstone factory in South Africa. The results are reproducible and show conductance can qualitatively characterise a flooded cane bed. © 2020 Royal Society of South Africa.
