The effect of constitutive pigmentation on the measured emissivity of human skin.

PLoS ONE, 2020
BackgroundThe measurement of body temperature has become commonplace in the current COVID-19 pandemic. Body temperature can be measured using thermal infrared imaging, a safe, non-contact method that relies on the emissivity of the skin being known to ...

Lighting up Macrophage Reprogramming Assists Immunosuppressive Niche Modulation in Primary Tumors and Tumor‐Draining Lymph Nodes of Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops an intelligent NIR‐II‐responsive nanoplatform to combat immunosuppression in breast cancer. It enables real‐time visualization of macrophage activity via “off‐on” fluorescence while simultaneously reprogramming macrophages through the CSF‐1R and CD47‐SIRPα pathways.

Design of a Near Infrared Spectrophotometry Brain Imaging System [PDF]

, 2010
Measuring brain activity is at task generally left for EEG or fMRI. However, there is a lesser known imaging technique known as near infrared spectrophotometry, in which near infrared light is shown into the patients head to measure changes in ...

Assessing variability of literature based methane indicator traits in a large dairy cow population

Biotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 2015
Description of the subject. Dairy production is identified as a major source of methane (CH4) emissions. Selective breeding represents one method for mitigating CH4 emissions but practical and cheap ways to measure this trait are not currently available.

A Sprayable Nanoplatform Breaks the Vicious Cycle of Diabetic Wounds via Photoactivated Antioxidant and Drug Delivery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A sprayable near‐infrared‐activated nanoplatform incorporating MXene, ZnHCF nanozyme, and deferoxamine efficiently breaks the vicious cycle of diabetic wounds. Upon irradiation, interfacial electron transfer and photothermal effects enhance multi‐enzyme activity, enabling explosive ROS elimination, alleviation of hypoxia, and controlled DFO release ...
