Cs adsorption by Mn‒Fe-based Prussian blue analogs formed in agarose gel
The Fukushima nuclear accident triggered a massive release of radioactive cesium (Cs) isotopes into the environment and generated a large amount of contaminated water. Because Cs isotopes pose serious threats to the environment (particularly the aquatic environment),
A novel measure for predicting OSA whilst awake
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder, and its prevalence increases significantly with age. Despite being massively under-diagnosed, the latest estimation of OSA prevalence is >1 billion globally. OSA diagnosis is based on an overnight
Forensic differentiation of human and animal hair via ATR FT-IR spectroscopy and chemometrics
The difference between a human hair and an animal hair may not be obvious to the naked eye, until it is scrutinized underneath the microscope or by other means. Although it may be rather easy for a

Will dengue vaccination be cost-effective for an epidemic country? The case of Argentina
Dengue is one of the major tropical diseases, causing a huge burden in terms of suffering, deaths and economic costs globally. Many research institutions and pharmaceutical companies throughout the world have been trying to develop a vaccine
Environmental contaminants as needles in a haystack
Detection of environmentally significant contaminants in very complex mixtures is a challenging problem for analytical chemists. A common approach uses gas chromatography (GC) to separate the mixture components in combination with mass spectrometry (MS) to identify the
Diagnosis and management of bile leaks after hepatectomy
One of the most common complications of hepatic resection is biliary leak, which may happen from the cut-surface of the liver that is made by the surgeon during the operation. Biliary leak may be an important source
