TERBIUM FUNCTIONALIZED SCHIZOCHYTRIUM-DERIVED CARBON DOTS FOR RATIOMETRIC FLUORESCENCE DETERMINATION OF THE ANTHRAX BIOMARKER

Terbium Functionalized Schizochytrium-Derived Carbon Dots for Ratiometric Fluorescence Determination of the Anthrax Biomarker

Efficient and instant detection of biological threat-agent anthrax is highly desired in the fields of medical care and anti-terrorism.Herein, a new ratiometric fluorescence (FL) nanoprobe was elaborately tailored for the determination of 2,6-dipicolinic acid (DPA), a biomarker of anthrax spores, by grafting terbium ions (Tb3+) to the surface of car

Experimental validation of a voxel-based finite element model simulating femoroplasty of lytic lesions in the proximal femur

Abstract Femoroplasty is a procedure where bone cement is injected percutaneously into a weakened proximal femur.Uncertainty exists whether femoroplasty provides sufficient mechanical strengthening to prevent fractures in patients with femoral bone metastases.Finite element models are promising tools to evaluate the mechanical Round Table effective
