Worldwide, black shales and shale waste are known to be a potential source of metals to the environment. This project demonstrates ongoing weathering and evaluates leaching processes at a 100-m-high shale waste deposit closed in the 1960s. Some deep parts of the deposit are still burning with...
Building a comprehensive track-and-trace system for medicines, which is aligned with the European Falsified Medicines Directive and to ensure compliance is a must in today’s environment. Pharmacies, hospitals, HCPs, caregivers, and patients now expect a completely secure and traceable delivery process...

Ablation was carried out in a low-volume cell with helium as carrier gas; laser beam parameters used were a spot size of 20 μm, a repetition rate of 10 Hz, and a fluence of ∼3 J cm−2. Time-resolved raw data were corrected offline for background signal, common Pb, laser-...
(including Alu and other closely related TE families), can function as crucial enhancers during mammalian brain development [76]. Moreover, TE expression is highly regulated and variable in different human tissues and cell types, especially for L1 and ERV [77,78,79]. A cross-species study ...
Because of their short wavelength (comparable to the size of atoms) and high energy, they can penetrate tens to hundreds of micrometers into most materials and give rise to a number of physical phenomena that allow the determination of their chemical composition and structure. For example, when...
Microscopic image of an HIV-infected T cell. Credit: NIAID Rolling out home-based testing and universal treatment for HIV is cost-effective and can cut the incidence of cases in high-prevalence communities. These are the findings of a major HIV-prevention study involving more than one million ...
