Deposition of carbon nanotubes in commonly used sample filter media

There is no single standard technique or methodology to characterize the size, structure, number, and chemical composition of airborne carbon nanotubes.  Existing analytical instruments and analytical techniques for evaluating nanoparticle concentrations cannot simultaneously provide morphology, state of agglomeration, surface area, mass, size distribution and chemical composition data critical...

Commonly used "nutrition" indicators do not predict outcome in the critically ill: a systematic review.

BACKGROUND In everyday practice, clinicians use a variety of anthropometric, biochemical, and clinical indicators to monitor nutrition therapy, but these have limitations in the critically ill. This systematic review of randomized controlled trials aimed to assess whether commonly used anthropometric, biochemical, and clinical nutrition indicators are predictive of patient outcomes in the criti...

Determining zinc with commonly used calcium and zinc fluorescent indicators, a question on calcium signals.

Investigations into the roles of Ca(2+) and Zn(2+) in cell biology have been facilitated by the development of sensitive fluorometric probes that have enabled the measurement of Ca(2+) or Zn(2+) in both extracellular and intracellular environments. It is critical to be aware of the specificity and relative selectivity of a probe for the targeted ion. Here, we investigated metal-ion responses by...
