“…By the same token, forceful exhalation resulted in higher emitted doses and smaller emitted particles, depending on the individual breathing ability of the patient, the inhalation device and the drug metered in it. The relative increase in the emitted dose varied between 0.2 and 8.0% (min: Foster® NEXThaler®, max: Bufomix® Easyhaler®), while the relative enhancement of fine particle dose ranged between 1.9 and 30.8% (min: Foster® NEXThaler®, max: Symbicort® Turbuhaler®), depending on the inhaler. …”

“…We propose a roadmap towards creating healthier, functional and more durable systems by deploying a multiscale platform containing biologically-active components encapsulated within biopolymer lattices operating at three design scales: (i) supporting cell-free protein expression in a biopolymer matrix (microscale), (ii) varying material properties of porosity and strength within two-dimensional lattices to support biological and structural functions (mesoscale), and (iii) obtaining folded indoor surfaces that are structurally sound at the meter scale and biologically active (we label that regime macroscale). …”

“…METHODS: Memory performance (Y-maze task), muscular function (muscle grip strength), and pain score (pressure application measurement meter) were measured. Functional biomarkers were measured using ELISA method in different matrix viz. in serum (parathyroid hormone; PTH, calcitonin, thyroxine, and C-reactive protein; CRP, 25-OH Vit D(3)), and in CSF (klotho and β-endorphin). 25-OH Vit D(3) was also estimated in liver and kidney homogenate using ELISA. …”

“…Structural, electrical, and optical properties of the prepared samples were investigated using the X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV–Visible spectrophotometer, and conductivity meter, respectively. The XRD results confirmed the crystalline nature and the presence of the hexagonal structure of α-Al(2)O(3), the rhombohedra structure of CuAlO(2) and the tetragonal structure of V(2)O(5). …”
