The Non‐Professional Virtues of the Hospice Volunteer

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Volunteers have long played a significant role in hospice care. Much of the care volunteers provide consists of weekly hour‐long in‐home visits. Home‐visiting hospice volunteers are not professionals, nor are they strangers or intimates. Hospice volunteers will not typically face moral dilemmas, nor be called upon to make dramatic decisions ...

Redox‐Associated Renal and Male Reproductive Alterations Following Dexamethasone Exposure in Male Rats: Histopathological and Spermatological Evaluations

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dexamethasone (DEX) is widely used in clinical practice, although it may also cause oxidative stress–related damage in different tissues, including the kidney and male reproductive system. This study investigated DEX‐induced renal and reproductive injury in rats and evaluated the modulatory effect of reduced glutathione on DEX‐associated redox

Managing Spectral Intensity Variations With In‐Line Fiber‐Optic High‐Volume Noncontact Raman Probes: A Strategy Exploration

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Robust quantification in noncontact Raman sensing requires dedicated correction of working distance dependent background effects, while laser power variations are readily stabilized using internal reference signals. Chemically relevant Raman intensity can be preserved for bulk composition measurements, under variable laser power and working distance ...

Improved sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis method for quantifying the 11S/7S ratio in soybean storage proteins

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Accurate quantification of soybean storage protein subunits glycinin (11S) and β‐conglycinin (7S), and their ratio (11S/7S), is essential for applications in plant breeding, food processing, and allergen research. Although sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS‐PAGE) is widely used due to its accessibility ...

Reclaimed Well Sites on Salt Affected Soils: Electrical Conductivity and Sodium Adsorption Ratio as Plant Community Response Indicators

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salt affected soils are common worldwide, resulting from natural causes and anthropogenic activities. Saline and sodic soils often occur in association with oil and gas production, impacting soil properties which can impede vegetation growth and development.
