Tetrazolium salts are widely used in biology as indicators of Bottle Opener metabolic activity - hence termed vital dyes - but their reduction site is still debated despite decades of intensive research.The prototype, 2,3,5- triphenyl tetrazolium chloride, which was first synthesized a century ago, often generates a single formazan granule at the o

Study on the Vibration-Damping Mechanism of a New Phononic Crystal Suspension Equipped on Underwater Gliders
The vibration caused by the movement of internal actuating components within an acoustic underwater glider can interfere with onboard sensors.However, as a new vibration-damping material, phononic crystals can effectively reduce this impact.Using simulation and an underwater test, this work studied the vibration-damping mechanism of the phononic cr
In vivo magnetic resonance imaging evidence of olfactory bulbs changes in a newborn with congenital Citomegalovirus: a case report
Abstract Background Citomegalovirus (CMV) infects approximately 1% of live newborns.About 10% of the infants affected by congenital CMV infection are symptomatic at birth and up to 60% of these infants will develop permanent neurological disabilities.Depending on gestational age (GA) at the time of infection, the involvement of central nervous syst
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest complicated by hyperthermia
Background: The aims of this study were to establish epidemiology, clinical management and outcomes in cases of adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest complicated by hyperthermia attended by the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust between January 2018 and December 2019.Where evidence is available in relation to this sub-set of cardiac Bamboo Round Tab
