Photocatalytic Activity of Ag-TiO2 Composites Deposited by Photoreduction under UV Irradiation by Carlos Díaz-Uribe, Jose Viloria, Lorraine Cervantes, William Vallejo, Karen Navarro, Eduard Romero, Cesar Quiñones

“…The structural study showed that all samples were polycrystalline, main phases were anatase and rutile, and no additional signals were detected after surface modification. Raman spectroscopy suggested that silver aggregates deposited on the TiO2 films could exhibit the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) phenomenon; XPS and SEM analysis confirmed TiO2 film morphological modification after photoreduction process. …”

Impact of the transition from radioimmunoassay (RIA) to chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA) for the measurement of plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) on the diagnosis o... by Ken-ichiro Honma, Yoshiro Nakayama, Atsuko Tamaki, Moriyuki Uehara, Taiki Teruya, Takamitsu Yabiku, Yohei Ishiki, Ken Yonaha, Rei Chinen, Tsugumi Uema, Shiki Okamoto, Hiroaki Masuzaki

“…In Japan, the traditional method for measuring plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) was radioimmunoassay (RIA), which had several challenges, including poor traceability of certified reference materials and reduced detection sensitivity at low concentrations. To overcome these issues, a chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA) for PAC measurement was introduced in April 2021 and the Japan Endocrine Society published new guidelines for primary aldosteronism (PA). …”

Influence of mimicry on extinction risk in Aculeata: a theoretical approach by Boutin, Maxime, Costa, Manon, Fontaine, Colin, Perrard, Adrien, Llaurens, Violaine

“…We found that the probability of extinction increases as the proportion of undefended males increases in the population, however co-existence still occurs if females are sufficiently abundant or noxious. Furthermore, we detected a destabilising effect of dual sex-limited mimicry (when each sex resembles a different model) on species co-existence. …”
