Evidence of Iron Accumulation in Cerebral Adrenoleukodystrophy: A Potential Novel Disease Mechanism
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this first application of Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping Source Separation to cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy, we uncovered alterations in iron and myelin within lesions and normal appearing white matter. As validation, we demonstrate abnormal iron accumulation in those same compartments within primary brain tissue.

New method to study the repellent, irritant and toxic effects on Anopheles gambiae. Application on 20 essential oils [PDF]
, 2012 Laboratory and field studies showed that repellent and irritant actions of common public health insecticides reduce the man-vector contact and so interrupt the disease transmission particularly when use with long lasting treated bednets.

A Systematic Comparison of Alpha‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Assays for Increasing Reproducibility
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Seed amplification assays (SAAs) enable ultrasensitive detection of misfolded α‐synuclein across biofluids and tissues. Yet, heterogeneity in protocols limits cross‐study comparability and clinical translation. Here, we review α‐synuclein SAA methods and their performance across various biological matrices.

Present and future potential of plant-derived products to control arthropods of veterinary and medical significance [PDF]
, 2014 The use of synthetic pesticides and repellents to target pests of veterinary and medical significance is becoming increasingly problematic. One alternative approach employs the bioactive attributes of plant-derived products (PDPs). These are particularly

Thermoreflectance Detection of Point Defects Resulting from Focused Ion Beam Milling
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Focused ion beam (FIB) milling is a common tool for nanoscale material processing, however irradiation damage, redeposition, and contamination can occur. We use several characterization tools to show FIB‐induced effects beyond 1 mm from the milled area.

Repellent, irritant and toxic effects of essential oil constituents on Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) [PDF]
, 2013 Whiteflies, Bemisia tabaci, are a widespread pest in agriculture, causing crop loss up to 100% by direct and indirect damage. Controlling this pest has proven difficult due to the fact that they stay underside the leaves and their ability to become ...
