The study of the functionality of cardiomyocytes obtained from induced pluripotent stem cells for the modeling of cardiac arrhythmias based on long QT syndrome by M. M. Slotvitsky, V. A. Tsvelaya, S. R. Frolova, E. V. Dement’eva, K. I. Agladze

“…After an electrophysiological study on individual cardiac cells from patients with the LQT syndrome, it became apparent that the search for a mechanism for the transition of the normal heart rhythm to chaotic and fibrillation cannot be limited to recording ion currents in single cells. To solve this problem, we need a model of the behavior of cardiac tissue which reflects the relationship of various factors and the risk of reentry. …”

Effects of Cu(II) on the Adsorption Behaviors of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) onto Kaolin by Juanjuan Liu, Xiaolong Wu, Yandi Hu, Chong Dai, Qin Peng, Dongli Liang

“…Comparing the adsorption behaviors and mechanisms, we found that kaolin prefers to adsorb hydrolyzed products of Cr(III) instead of Cr3+ ion, while adsorption sites of kaolin surface were occupied primarily by Cu(II) through surface complexation, leading to Cu(II) inhibited Cr(VI) adsorption. …”
