    Abstract A new, highly acetylated agarose matrix (HA-Sepharose) was synthesized and used as a hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) medium to specifically isolate immunoglobulins (Igs) from porcine serum. Recovery of Igs was in a single step and under mild conditions. HA-Sepharose adsorption was studied in terms of salt, gel acetylation time, flow rate, and protein concentration on the loading buffer. At 0.5 M Na2SO4, control with unmodified Sepharose retained a small fraction (0.70 mg/mL of matrix) of serum albumin. On the contrary HA-Sepharose retained primary Igs (IgA, IgG, and 53% of IgM) as revealed by sodium dodecyl sulphate 10% polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), quantitative radial immunodiffusion and immunodetection. At a flow rate of 1 mL/min, the HA-Sepharose column capacity (3.9 mg/mL of matrix) was similar to the reported capacity for the commercial thiophilic T-gel. However, HA-Sepharose showed higher recovery of IgA and IgM than the T-gel in the same salt conditions, clearly an advantage in terms of immunoglobulin recovery strategies. Acetylation changed the matrix adsorption from albumin to immunoglobulins; thus, the highly acetylated gel rendered recoveries of Igs from unprocessed porcine serum practically free of albumin.

    Abstract Background: Serological assays are widely used to confirm dengue virus infections and to differentiate between a primary and a secondary infection.
    Objective: Two commercial dengue diagnostic kits, Panbio Dengue IgM Capture and Dengue IgG Capture ELISA (Brisbane, Australia) were evaluated.
    Study design: Three hundred and seventy-three serum samples were tested. Panel sera included samples from dengue confirmed cases (representing both primary and secondary infections), from non-dengue infectious diseases, and from healthy individuals. The MAC-ELISA/Dengue IPK was used for the detection of anti-dengue virus IgM antibody in the sera and the ELISA inhibition method (EIM/Dengue IPK) was used to differentiate between primary and secondary infections. Both these reference assays, which were previously developed in the Arbovirus Laboratory at the "Pedro Kouri" Tropical Medicine Institute, were employed as the gold standard.
    Results: High sensitivity (96.8%) and specificity (99.4%) were found with the commercial diagnostics when compared to the reference methods. Furthermore, high concordance 95.5% in classifying dengue infection types (primary or secondary infections) was observed.
    Conclusions: The Panbio Dengue IgM and IgG assays offer a good alternative for dengue diagnosis. They are easy to perform and results can be obtained in less than 3h.

    Abstract This work proposes a new data-driven model to estimate and predict pH dynamics in freshwater raceway photobioreactors. The resulting model is based purely on data measured from the reactor and divides the pH dynamics into two different behaviors. One behavior is described by the variation of pH due to the photosynthesis phenomena made by microalgae; and the other comes from the effect of CO

    Abstract Concrete is a prominent construction material globally, owing to its reputed attributes such as robustness, endurance, optimal functionality, and adaptability. Formulating concrete mixtures poses a formidable challenge, mainly when introducing novel materials and additives and evaluating diverse design resistances. Recent methodologies for projecting concrete performance in fundamental aspects, including compressive strength, flexural strength, tensile strength, and durability (encompassing homogeneity, porosity, and internal structure), exist. However, actual approaches need more diversity in the materials and properties considered in their analyses. This dataset outlines the outcomes of an extensive 10-year laboratory investigation into concrete materials involving mechanical tests and non-destructive assessments within a comprehensive dataset denoted as ConcreteXAI. This dataset encompasses evaluations of mechanical performances and non-destructive tests. ConcreteXAI integrates a spectrum of analyzed mixtures comprising twelve distinct concrete formulations incorporating diverse additives and aggregate types. The dataset encompasses 18,480 data points, establishing itself as a cutting-edge resource for concrete analysis. ConcreteXAI acknowledges the influence of artificial intelligence techniques in various science fields. Emphatically, deep learning emerges as a precise methodology for analyzing and constructing predictive models. ConcreteXAI is designed to seamlessly integrate with deep learning models, enabling direct application of these models to predict or estimate desired attributes. Consequently, this dataset offers a resourceful avenue for researchers to develop high-quality prediction models for both mechanical and non-destructive tests on concrete elements, employing advanced deep learning techniques.

    Abstract We report on the progress of our novel low-frequency optomechanical inertial sensing technologies for gravimetry and space geodesy. Our technologies are designed to be compact, portable, and are comprised of monolithically fabricated mechanical resonators that incorporate compact and highly sensitive laser interferometric displacement sensors.Current laboratory prototypes have demonstrated mechanical quality factors Q of 4.77x10 5 , an mQ-product above 1200 kg, a fundamental mechanical resonance of 4.7 Hz, which highlight their high sensitivity with acceleration noise floor nears 1x10 -11 m s -2 /√Hz. Such compact systems are excellent candidates for future applications in gravimetry, geodesy, geophysics, and hydrology.A prototype packaging has been developed to reduce losses caused by typical mechanical mounts. We have conducted comparison measurements with commercial low-frequency systems to an excellent agreement. Recent measurements taken with the resonator mounted in this packaging atop a vibration isolation platform have indicated that our system is seismically limited above 1 mHz. Noise floors in the order of 82 pico-g/√Hz at 0.4 Hz has been demonstrated in our laboratory.We will present recent updates on our optomechanical inertial sensors, including up to date measurements of the resonator and interferometer sensitivity, as well as that of the combined system.

    Abstract This work evaluates the use of Echeveria elegans as a biomonitor of metals and radionuclides, using semi-urban soils as a study area. The study area is exposed to various trace elements of concern for various social groups in nearby localities. The quantification of metals and radionuclides was performed by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and gamma spectrometry, respectively. Cumulative frequency distribution curves, descriptive statistics, and multivariate analysis were used to estimate the local geochemical baseline and identify geochemical and anthropogenic patterns of metals and radionuclides from topsoil and E. elegans. The evaluation of contaminants and the contribution of possible exposure routes (topsoil and atmospheric deposition) was performed with the enrichment factor (EF) and the relative concentration factor (CF
