Spectroscopic analysis of bacterial photoreactivation
This study investigates the effectiveness of fluorescence and Raman spectroscopy in detecting bacterial photoreactivation. Fluorescence spectroscopy shows limitations, because the intense fluorescence of tryptophan and tyrosine masks fluorescence emitted by thymine molecules.

Depth of DNA photodamage in human corneas exposed to 222 nm or 254 nm UV
Representative confocal 3D image of a section of a human cornea showing nuclei in blue (Hoechst 33342) and green, which was assigned to cells exhibiting Alexa555 conjugated to anti‐CPD antibody. The depth of photodamage was measured in Z‐stacks of the human corneal epithelium after exposure of the anterior surface to 50 or 100 mJ/cm2 at 222 or 254 nm ...

Far‐UVC (200–235 nm) has emerged as a safe and effective indoor disinfection tool, but effects on skin immunomodulation remain unclear. This study demonstrates that 222 nm far‐UVC converts trans‐urocanic acid (UCA) to its biologically active cis isomer at levels comparable with solar radiation. In keratinocytes, far‐UVC alone caused modest increases in

ABSTRACT Microporous carbonate rocks typically record complex diagenetic histories driven by microbial activity and fluid interactions within multiple diagenetic environments. The relative roles of meteoric and burial diagenetic processes in pore evolution remain debated, particularly within Cretaceous carbonate systems of the Middle East, as does the ...

Key Points Low‐Mg calcite RM developed for in situ microanalysis applications in palaeoclimatology (δ18O, δ13C; Mg, Sr m/m). New data for calcite CRM IAEA‐603 (δ18O, δ13C by SIMS and GS‐IRMS; Mg m/m). No detectable IMF effect of Mg on SIMS δ18O determinations for mass fractions < 3650 μg g‐1.

Key Points Measurement of 86Sr at count rates < 1500 cps can result in statistical bias. Non‐linear signals in analogue detection mode (e.g., Rb) present a challenge for accurately dating high 87Rb/86Sr mica (> 1000). Accounting for these considerations, high 87Rb/86Sr mica are dated here with accuracies of ∼ 1%.

Key Points 7 μm spot‐diameter LA‐MC‐ICP‐MS analyses yield accurate zircon U‐Pb ages. 1013 Ω amplifier resistors improve low‐signal Pb measurements. Saturn correction protocols minimise down‐hole fractionation effects. We present a systematic evaluation of high spatial‐resolution zircon U‐Pb dating using a Thermo Scientific Neoma multi‐collector ICP‐MS ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Electric Signals Generated at Corneal Wounds
Corneal injury triggers cell signaling (including calcium waves) leading to ion channel up‐regulation, increased ion pumping, and enhanced wound electric signals which stimulate wound healing. ABSTRACT Over 150 years ago, it was demonstrated that wounds produce electric fields and currents.
