Abstract Smoke emissions produced by firearms contain hazardous chemicals, but little is known if their properties change depending on firearm and ammunition type and whether such changes affect toxicity outcomes.Pulmonary toxicity was assessed in mice exposed by oropharyngeal aspiration to six different types of smoke-related particulate matter (P
Commands in brain-computer interface (BCI) applications often rely on the decoding of event-related potentials (ERP).For instance, the P300 potential is frequently used as a marker of attention to an oddball event.Error-related potentials and the N2pc signal are further examples of ERPs used for BCI control.One challenge in decoding brain activity
This article has studied the impact of double-shaft mixing paddle undergoing planetary motion on laminar flow mixing system using flow field visualization experiment and computational fluid dynamics simulation.Digital image processing was conducted to analyze the mixing efficiency of mixing paddle in co-rotating and counter-rotating modes.It was fo
Abstract B cells and T cells collaborate in multiple sclerosis (MS) pathogenesis.IgH[MOG] mice possess a B cell repertoire skewed to recognize myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG).Here, we show that upon immunization with the T cell-obligate autoantigen, MOG[35-55], IgH[MOG] mice develop rapid and exacerbated experimental autoimmune encephalom
Abstract Background High salt intake is a risk factor for hypertension and cardiovascular disease.Reducing salt intake has been shown to reduce blood pressure.Despite population-level interventions, including product reformulation and public awareness campaigns, adult salt consumption in the UK still exceeds recommendations; this is primarily due t
