- Abstract:
- ... Bisphenol‐A‐glycidyldimethacrylate (BisGMA) is a resin monomer frequently used in dentin restorative treatments. The leakage of BisGMA monomer from BisGMA‐based polymeric resins can lead to cytotoxicity in macrophages. Rutin has various beneficial bioeffects, including antioxidation and antiinflammation. In this study, we found that pretreatment of RAW264.7 macrophages with rutin‐inhibited cytotox ...

- Abstract:

The detection system implements both a long-pass filter and perpendicular optical arrangement, i.e., a power LED and a palm-sized spectrometer, to minimize background signals from the excitation light and optical scattering. The lower detection limit for resorufin was 0.13 μM. The d ...

- Abstract:

A novel fluorometric strategy is proposed for detecting curcumin by polyvinyl pyrrolidone-templated Cu NCs (PVP–Cu NCs) as a fluorescent probe which exhibits excitation/emission peaks at 380/510 nm. The fluorescent excitation and emission spectra of PVP-Cu NCs have a striking overlap with the UV–vis spectrum of curcumin, and the fluorescence lifetime of PVP-Cu NCs decreases after the addition of c ...

- Abstract:
- ... Intrasexual selection occurs in male‐male competition over access to females and usually results in the larger male winning. While much research has documented that size matters, little is known about how the larger male wins. Dendroctonus valens is an aggregating monogamous bark beetle in which males have large variation in body size and display intense competition over females. Behavioral observ ...

In this study, we quickly synthesized ZnCo₂O₄ nanosheets (NSs) with excellent peroxidase catalytic activity in basic deep eutectic solvent (DES). It was found that PPi could inhibit the catalytic capability of ZnCo₂O₄ NSs transforming colorless o-phenylenediamine (OPD) into y ...

For the differentiation of the species Bacillus weihenstephanensis and B. pseudomycoides from other members of the B. cereus group a real-time PCR was suggested in 2011, which applies the primer-probe-combinations BCFomp2/BCRomp2 with MotB-FAM-2 and BpmF/BpmR2 with Bpm-FAM-1, respectively. However, a subsequent study revealed contradictions between taxonomic relationships based on real-time PCR re ...
