Mueller-matrix diagnostics of optical properties inherent to polycrystalline networks of human blood plasma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This work is aimed at studying the possibilities of Mueller-matrix diagnostics applied to optically anisotropic birefringent polycrystalline networks inherent to amino acids in human blood plasma. Determined here are interrelations between statistical

Near infra-red Mueller matrix imaging system and application to strain imaging

open access: yes, 2010
We report on the design and performance of a near infra-red Mueller matrix imaging ellipsometer, and apply the instrument to strain imag- ing in near infra-red transparent solids.

Extracting Superficial Scattering by Q‐Sensing Technique

open access: yesJournal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.
Exploring the use of polarized light by Q‐sensing technique to enhance sensing of abnormal situations in tissue. By isolating superficial scattering from deeper layers, identifying areas of depolarization is possible, allowing the detection of tissue abnormalities and extraction of superficial scattering. The experimental results are supported by Monte

The Effect of Synthetic Cow Urine on Microorganisms and Their Potential Phosphorus Mining Activity in Rhizosphere and Bulk Soil

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and aims Soil microbes adapt to varying nutrient inputs by modifying their utilization strategies, with root exudates and animal urine serving as key carbon (C) and nutrient sources in grasslands. Nonetheless, the specific mechanisms by which cow urine and root exudates influence microbial community and resource utilization remain ...

How Does Entrepreneurs' Grit Predict Effectual Decision‐Making?

open access: yesStrategic Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Entrepreneurs' grit is one of the most relevant predictors of new venture performance. We investigate whether the “stubbornness” of entrepreneurs' grit negatively relates to their effectual decision‐making abilities. Understanding the underlying mechanisms is relevant because the effectual decision‐making abilities of founders are crucial for ...

Snapshot Mueller matrix polarimeter by wavelength polarization coding

open access: yes, 2007
International audienceWe present a new, to the best of our knowledge, experimental configuration of Mueller matrix polarimeter based on wavelength polarization coding. This is a compact and fast technique to study polarization phenomena.

Active chitosan coating to inhibit decay and maintain mango postharvest quality

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial decay limits the storage, quality and trade of mangoes (Mangifera indica). We developed an active chitosan coating containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) and Eucalyptus radiata essential oil (EEO) to inhibit decay and preserve postharvest quality of mango. Chitosan (cationic) can disrupt microbial membranes; ZnO‐NPs

Analysis of polarization introduced due to the telescope optics of the Thirty Meter Telescope [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
An analytical model has been developed to estimate the polarization effects, such as instrumental polarization (IP), crosstalk (CT), and depolarization, due to the optics of the Thirty Meter Telescope.

Vocal Fold Scar Treatment via Controlled Dexamethasone Delivery With a Light‐Activatable Implant

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A light‐activatable dexamethasone implant was employed for the treatment of vocal fold (VF) scarring in a rabbit model. The implant enables controlled, repeatable drug release via near‐infrared laser irradiation, improving biomechanics, vibratory function, and histological architecture at the injury site.
