Reducing the matrix effects in chemical analysis: fusion of isotope dilution and standard addition methods

open access: yesMetrologia, 2016
The combination of isotope dilution and mass spectrometry has become an ubiquitous tool of chemical analysis. Often perceived as one of the most accurate methods of chemical analysis, it is not without shortcomings. Current isotope dilution equations are not capable of fully addressing one of the key problems encountered in chemical analysis: the ...

SOURCE IDENTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTANTS USING CHEMICAL ANALYSIS AND POSITIVE MATRIX FACTORIZATION

open access: green, 2012
Multivariate modeling techniques are successfully used in different areas of environmental research because of their ability to process large data sets. The main objective of their application lies in the determination of data structures and hidden information which account for the data set variability. This thesis work seeks to explore the application

Mineralogical and Chemical Analysis of Fracture and Matrix Minerals in Selected Samples of the Culebra Dolomite

open access: green, 2001
Contaminant release scenarios proposed for the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) repository suggest that the Culebra Dolomite member of the Rustler Formation could be an important radionuclide release path. This thin, vuggy, highly fractured unit is the most transmissive geologic unit overlying the WIPP.

Cold Atmospheric Plasma Attenuates Breast Cancer Cell Growth Through Regulation of Cell Microenvironment Effectors

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Breast cancer exists in multiple subtypes some of which still lack a targeted and effective therapy. Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has been proposed as an emerging anti-cancer treatment modality.

ESR2 Drives Mesenchymal-to-Epithelial Transition in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer and Tumorigenesis In Vivo

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Estrogen receptors (ERs) have pivotal roles in the development and progression of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Interactions among cancer cells and tumor microenvironment are orchestrated by the extracellular matrix that is rapidly emerging as ...

miR-200b restrains EMT and aggressiveness and regulates matrix composition depending on ER status and signaling in mammary cancer

open access: yesMatrix Biology Plus, 2020
Secreted microRNAs (miRNAs) reside in a complex regulatory network with extracellular matrix (ECM) macromolecules, which affect cell-cell communication, therefore miRNA expression highlights its significance in several aspects of human diseases ...
