Occupational exposure limits for 1, 3-butadiene based on carcinogenic effects: a comparison of the threshold and non-threshold approaches

Anthropogenic Pollution, 2023
1, 3-Butadiene (BD) is primarily used for the production of synthetic rubbers and polymers, which are found in many industrial and consumer products. BD is suspected to be both carcinogenic and genotoxic to humans. This study aims to compare occupational

How fast can vanadium dioxide neuron-mimicking devices oscillate? Physical mechanisms limiting the frequency of vanadium dioxide oscillators

Neuromorphic Computing and Engineering, 2023
The frequency of vanadium dioxide (VO _2 ) oscillators is a fundamental figure of merit for the realization of neuromorphic circuits called oscillatory neural networks (ONNs) since the high frequency of oscillators ensures low-power consuming, real-time ...

Asymptotic critical behavior of holographic superconductor phase transition — the spectrum of excited states becomes continuous at T = 0

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
Within the framework of AdS/CFT duality, excited states of the conformal field living at the global AdS boundary of a four-dimensional spacetime Einstein gravity are investigated analytically in the probe limit where the field equations are linearized ...

Compliance between Food and Feed Safety: Eight-Year Survey (2013–2021) of Aflatoxin M1 in Raw Milk and Aflatoxin B1 in Feed in Northern Italy

Toxins, 2023
Aflatoxins (AFs) are fungal metabolites that are found in feed and food. When ruminants eat feed contaminated with aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), it is metabolised and aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) is excreted in the milk. Aflatoxins can result in hepatotoxic, carcinogenic,
