Real-time detection of Ochratoxin A in wine through insight of aptamer conformation in conjunction with graphene field-effect transistor [PDF]
Mycotoxins comprise a frequent type of toxins present in food and feed. The problem of mycotoxin contamination has been recently aggravated due to the increased complexity of the farm-to-fork chains, resulting in negative effects on human and animal health and, consequently, economics.

The Fusarium mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) is a common contaminant of cereals and is often co-occurring with its modified forms DON-3-glucoside (D3G), 3-acetyl-DON (3ADON) or 15-acetyl-DON (15ADON). A stable-isotope dilution liquid chromatography-tandem

Free and Modified Mycotoxins in Organic and Conventional Oats (Avena sativa L.) Grown in Scotland
Small grain cereals are frequently infected with mycotoxigenic Fusarium fungi. Oats have a particularly high risk of contamination with type A trichothecene mycotoxins; their glucoside conjugates have also been reported.

Elisa and HPLC analyses of deoxynivalenol in maize and wheat [PDF]
Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a part of the family of mycotoxins called trichothecenes which are produced by a number of different Fusarium mold species. The presence of DON in 25 wheat and 25 maize samples was examined by Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (

Unmasking the mask studies: why the effectiveness of surgical masks in preventing respiratory infections has been underestimated [PDF]
Face masks have been widely used as a protective measure against COVID-19. However, pre-pandemic empirical studies have produced mixed statistical results on the effectiveness of masks against respiratory viruses. The implications of the studies' recognized limitations have not been quantitatively and statistically analyzed, leading to confusion ...

Impact of assortative mixing by mask-wearing on the propagation of epidemics in networks [PDF]
In this study, we discuss the impacts of assortative mixing by mask-wearing on the effectiveness of mask use in suppressing the propagation of epidemics. We employ the mask model, which is an epidemic model involving mask wearers and non-mask wearers. We derive the occurrence probability and mean size of large outbreaks, epidemic threshold, and average
