Supramolecular optical chemosensors are useful tools in analytical chemistry for the visualization of molecular recognition information. One advantage is that they can be utilized for array systems to detect multiple analytes. However, chemosensor arrays have been evaluated mainly in the solution phase, which limits a wide range of practical applications. Thus, appropriate solid support materials such as polymer gels and papers are required to broaden the scope of the application of chemosensors as on-site analytical tools. In this review, we summarize the actual approaches for the fabrication of solid-state chemosensor arrays combined with powerful data processing techniques and portable digital recorders for real-world applications. 相似文献
PurposeWe aimed to evaluate deep learning approach with convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to discriminate between benign and malignant lesions on maximum intensity projections of dynamic contrast-enhanced breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).MethodsWe retrospectively gathered maximum intensity projections of dynamic contrast-enhanced breast MRI of 106 benign (including 22 normal) and 180 malignant cases for training and validation data. CNN models were constructed to calculate the probability of malignancy using CNN architectures (DenseNet121, DenseNet169, InceptionResNetV2, InceptionV3, NasNetMobile, and Xception) with 500 epochs and analyzed that of 25 benign (including 12 normal) and 47 malignant cases for test data. Two human readers also interpreted these test data and scored the probability of malignancy for each case using Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were calculated.ResultsThe CNN models showed a mean AUC of 0.830 (range, 0.750–0.895). The best model was InceptionResNetV2. This model, Reader 1, and Reader 2 had sensitivities of 74.5%, 72.3%, and 78.7%; specificities of 96.0%, 88.0%, and 80.0%; and AUCs of 0.895, 0.823, and 0.849, respectively. No significant difference arose between the CNN models and human readers (p > 0.125).ConclusionOur CNN models showed comparable diagnostic performance in differentiating between benign and malignant lesions to human readers on maximum intensity projection of dynamic contrast-enhanced breast MRI. 相似文献
From Abies nukiangensis, two novel 13,14-seco-abietane diterpenes, nukiangendines A (1) and B (2) were isolated. Their relative structures were determined by extensive NMR and HRMS spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configuration of 1 was established by ECD calculations. Compound 1 showed significant anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) effects. 相似文献
Fluorinated stationary phases provide unique separation effect on basic compounds, due to the fluorine atoms, and pentafluorophenyl stationary phases (PFPs) are the most widely used. Considering that some fluoroalkyls have higher fluorine contents than PFPs do, it is speculated that fluoroalkyl stationary phases should have potential new applications. Herein, we synthesized a silica-based stationary phase bonding perfluoroctyl (FC8) proved by characterization through elemental analysis and solid-state 13C cross-polarization/magic-anglespinning nuclear magnetic resonance. The chromatographic behavior of the stationary phase was evaluated with test compounds. In addition, to further study the applicability of FC8 materials, Corydalis decumbens (Thunb.) Pers. fraction, considered as a challenging medicine on reversed-phase chromatography columns, was chosen as a test sample. Results demonstrated that the FC8 stationary phase had better and more satisfactory separation performance than the PFP stationary phase on basic compounds.
We give an estimate for sums appearing in the Nyman–Beurling criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis. These sums contain the Möbius function and are related to the imaginary part of the Estermann zeta function. The estimate is remarkably sharp in comparison to other sums containing the Möbius function. The bound is smaller than the trivial bound – essentially the number of terms – by a fixed power of that number. The exponent is made explicit. The methods intensively use tools from the theory of continued fractions and from the theory of Fourier series. 相似文献
SNPs, combined with massively parallel sequencing technology, have proven applicability in noninvasive prenatal paternity testing (NIPPT) for singleton pregnancies in our previous research, using circulating cell-free DNA in maternal plasma. However, the feasibility of NIPPT in twin pregnancies has remained uncertain. As a pilot study, we developed a practical method to noninvasively determine the paternity of twin pregnancies by maternal plasma DNA sequencing based on a massively parallel sequencing platform. Blood samples were collected from 15 pregnant women (twin pregnancies at 9–18 weeks of gestation). Parental DNA and maternal plasma cell-free DNA were analyzed with custom-designed probes covering 5226 polymorphic SNP loci. A mathematical model for data interpretation was established, including the zygosity determination and paternity index calculations. Each plasma sample was independently tested against the alleged father and 90 unrelated males. As a result, the zygosity in each twin case was correctly determined, prior to paternity analysis. Further, the correct biological father was successfully identified, and the paternity of all 90 unrelated males was excluded in each case. Our study demonstrates that NIPPT can be performed for twin pregnancies. This finding may contribute to development in NIPPT and diagnosis of certain genetic diseases. 相似文献
