Aptamer-Based Fluorescence Quenching Approach for Detection of Aflatoxin M1 in Milk
Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1), one of the most toxic mycotoxins, is a feed and food contaminant of global concern. In this study, we developed a fast and simple method for detection of AFM1 based on a structure-switching signaling aptamer. This aptasensor is based

Examination of Imported Cheeses for Aflatoxin M1
A total of 118 imported cheeses from 13 countries were analyzed for aflatoxin M1. Six were very hard types that included Parmesan, Romano and Sapsago; 74 were hard types that included Swiss and Cheddar; and 38 were soft or semisoft types, mainly Camembert and cheese spreads.

The Interference Term between the Spin and Orbital Contributions to M1 Transitions [PDF]
We study the cross-correlation between the spin and orbital parts of magnetic dipole transitions M1 in both isoscalar and isovector channels. In particular, we closely examine certain cases where $\sum B(M1)$ is very close to $\sum B(M1)_{\sigma} + \sum B(M1)_l$, implying a cancellation of the summed interference terms.

Fabrication of microfluidic device for Aflatoxin M1 detection in milk samples with specific aptamers
This study describes the colorimetric detection of aflatoxin M1 (Afl M1) in milk samples using a microfluidic paper-based analytical device (µPAD). Fabrication of µPADs was done using a simple and quick approach.

Quasi-Deuteron Configurations in odd-odd N=Z nuclei [PDF]
The isovector M1 transitions between low-lying T=1 and T=0 states in odd-odd N=Z nuclei are analyzed. Simple analytical expressions for M1 transition strengths are derived within a single-j-shell approximation for both j=l+1/2 and j=l-1/2 cases. The large B(M1) values for the j=l+1/2 case are attributed to quasi-deuteron configurations.
