This study develops a quantum-mechanical radical pair mechanism model to examine how an extremely-low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) might influence early chemical hepatocarcinogenesis in rats. The model evaluates singlet-state recombination and quantum yield under a low magnetic field effect, proposing…

This laboratory study investigated ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone using organic-acid catalysts to produce poly-ε-caprolactone intended as a biodegradable drug carrier. The authors report that citric acid catalysis yielded substantially higher molecular weight polymer than other catalysts. They also…

This laboratory study examined how UV-C radiation, an electromagnetic field, microwave radiation, and ultrasound affected polyphenolic compounds in chokeberry. Using UPLC-PDA-MS/MS, the authors report that UV-C, microwaves, and ultrasound generally increased several polyphenolic groups, while the electromagnetic…

This cross-sectional online study surveyed Malaysian respondents about smartphone addiction behavior and awareness of electromagnetic radiation (EMR). Most participants reported smartphone dependency and reported being aware of EMR, with no significant difference in addiction behavior by accommodation type (home vs…

This animal experimental study reports that low-intensity ultrahigh-frequency electromagnetic radiation and a low-intensity low-frequency magnetic field, applied after radiation exposure, enhanced metabolic and regenerative processes in rat testes and liver. The magnetic field was associated with increased…

This engineering study deposited Ga-doped ZnO thin films via radio frequency sputtering and examined how Ga content affects optoelectronic properties and electrical stability. The abstract reports non-monotonic changes in conductivity with increasing Ga content alongside degraded crystallinity, while maintaining >80%…

This materials study used optical second harmonic generation to detect electric field-induced structural changes at Pt/Fe-doped SrTiO3 anode interfaces. Reduced crystals showed steadily increasing susceptibility with increasing negative voltage, interpreted as electrostriction-related bond distortions. Oxidized…

This conference paper describes an automated method for ABO and Rh-D blood typing using images captured by low-cost mobile phones of a fabric strip rapid diagnostic test. The approach applies morphological image processing steps including noise reduction, range filtering, and empirically derived heuristics to…

This computational study used finite element modeling to estimate the electric field distribution in the brain during tDCS for two electrode montages targeting the left DLPFC. It systematically varied isotropic tissue conductivity profiles to assess sensitivity of predicted E-field magnitude and components in the…

This in vitro study examined whether exposing Blemaren water solutions (pH 6.15) to a 2 Hz alternating magnetic field for one hour changes their ability to dissolve uroliths. The authors report higher dissolution efficiency (about 1.922d7) in pre-exposed solutions compared with non-exposed controls. They also report…

This review assessed surgical and procedural case logbook smartphone applications available in major app stores. Of 2,740 apps screened, 16 were relevant and 11 were suitable for critical review, with reported variation in app size and cost. The authors conclude that current mobile apps can efficiently replace…

This laboratory/analytical study examined how sample matrix affects sample sweeping in micellar electrokinetic chromatography under an inhomogeneous electric field. It reports strong focusing for hydrophobic cationic analytes when the sample matrix conductivity is much higher than the BGE, even with low surfactant…

This randomized controlled trial evaluated whether mobile phone SMS messages could improve healthy food choices among Iranian postmenopausal women. Over 4 months, the intervention group received 16 messages about healthy food selection. The study reports increased consumption of Vitamin A rich fruits and vegetables…

This animal experimental study examined combined exposure to potable mineral water and low-intensity ultrahigh-frequency electromagnetic radiation (~1000 MHz;

This laboratory study evaluated how pulsed electric field (PEF) processing affects antioxidant activity and structure of 10–30 kDa corn peptides. Antioxidant activity was assessed via DPPH inhibition and optimized using response surface methodology. Under reported optimal conditions (10 mg/mL, 15 kV/cm, 2,000 Hz),…
