Changing trends in anabolic‐androgenic steroid use within Scottish prisons: Detection, prevalence, and quantitation

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
This study reports the qualitative and quantitative detection of anabolic‐androgenic steroids (AASs) in seized samples from prisons. Since 2022 there has been an increase in AAS detections with oxymetholone the most prevalent AAS, followed by metandienone, methyltestosterone, and oxandrolone.

Improving the Determination of Carbon Isotope Ratios of Endogenous Steroids Found in Human Serum

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
A method employing high‐performance liquid chromatographic sample cleanup to determine the carbon isotope ratios of steroids found in human serum was developed and fully validated. A reference population encompassing more than 120 male and female athlete samples was investigated in order to establish population‐based thresholds for Δ‐values.

Waxy‐ or Putty‐Like Materials as a Novel Drug Preparation for Synthetic Cannabinoid Receptor Agonists: Detection in Prisons and In Vitro Cannabinoid Receptor Activity

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Waxy‐ or putty‐like materials has emerged as a novel drug preparation for synthetic cannabinoids and other drugs in UK prisons. An in vitro CB1 bioassay was used to evaluate the CB1 activating potential of MDMB‐INACA and extracts from eight seized samples. MDMB‐INACA had moderate efficacy but low potency at CB1.

A brief history and future directions of dielectrophoretic filtration: A review

open access: yesELECTROPHORESIS, EarlyView.
Abstract Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is an electrokinetic effect first studied in the early 20th century. Since then, DEP has gained significant interest in research, owing to its ability to solve particle separation problems in various industries. Dielectrophoretic filtration (DEP filtration) is a separation method using DEP to filter a wide range of ...

Experimental Characterization of a Full‐Scale Stair System Detailed to Achieve Seismic Resiliency

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stair systems are the primary means of egress in and out of a building during and after an earthquake. Therefore, it is essential to detail these critical nonstructural systems such that they remain operable during and after an earthquake of moderate to high levels of intensity.

The emission of pollutants from ornamental shrubs during forest fires

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the combustion behavior, emissions, and aerosol production of four plant species: Laurus nobilis, Cistus monspeliensis, Photinia fraseri, and Cupressus sempervirens. The Heat Release Rate (HRR) and Smoke Production Rate (SPR) were measured, revealing that Cupressus sempervirens had the highest HRR and longest flame ...
