Squalene Depletion in Skin Following Human Exposure to Ozone under Controlled Chamber Conditions

Shen Yang

A major component of human skin oil is squalene, a highly unsaturated hydrocarbon that protects the skin from atmospheric oxidants. Skin oil, and thus squalene, is continuously replenished on the skin surface. Squalene is also quickly consumed through reac ...

Trans‐seeding of Alzheimer‐related tau protein by a yeast prion

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Zhiva Skachokova

Abnormal tau protein aggregates constitute a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease. The mechanisms underlying the initiation of tau aggregation in sporadic neurodegeneration remain unclear. Here we investigate whether a non-human prion can seed tau aggregation. ...

Material Characterization with PZE actuated Suspended Microchannel Resonators

Rebecca Camilla Leghziel

SMRs have been used in numerous applications for life science where most samples are contained in liquid. In this work we investigate how a biological medium, such as phosphate buffer solution (PBS), affects the Signal to Noise ratio (SNR) of PZE actuated ...

Environmental degradation of fracture resistance in high-temperature water environments of low-alloy reactor pressure vessel steels with high sulphur or phosphorus contents

Philippe Spätig, Hans-Peter Seifert, Zaiqing Que

The fracture behaviour of low-alloy reactor pressure vessel steels with various sulphur and phosphorus contents, different environmentally-assisted cracking (EAC) and temper embrittlement (TE) susceptibilities was evaluated by elastic plastic fracture mech ...

Microfluidic fabrication of vesicles with hybrid lipid/nanoparticle bilayer membranes

Esther Amstad

Hybrid lipid/nanoparticle membranes are suitable model systems both to study the complex interactions between nanoparticles and biological membranes, and to demonstrate technological concepts in cellular sensing and drug delivery. Unfortunately, embedding ...

Parameters affecting thermal risk through a kinetic model under adiabatic condition: Application to liquid-liquid reaction system

Thierry Meyer

Risk of thermal runaway for epoxidation is not negligible and should be analyzed and assessed. In industry, epoxidation of vegetable oils is carried out by the oxidation of Prileschajew, involving the in situ production of percarboxylic acid from hydrogen ...

Assessment of human exposure to pesticides by hair analysis: The case of vegetable-producing areas in Burkina Faso

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Edouard René Gilbert Lehmann, Christelle Oltramare, Jean-Jacques Stéphane Nfon Dibie

The present work assesses human exposure to pesticides in vegetable-producing areas in Burkina Faso, using hair as an indicator. The study design includes a comparison between operators who are occupationally exposed while working in the fields and a refer ...
