NEEDLE LOST IN THE HAYSTACK: MULTIPLE REACTION MONITORING FAILS TO DETECT TREPONEMA PALLIDUM CANDIDATE PROTEIN BIOMARKERS IN PLASMA AND URINE SAMPLES FROM INDIVIDUALS WITH SYPHILIS [VERSION 2; REFEREES: 2 APPROVED]

Background: Current syphilis diagnostic strategies are lacking a sensitive manner of directly detecting Treponema pallidum antigens.A diagnostic test that could directly detect T.pallidum antigens in individuals with syphilis would be of considerable clinical utility, especially for the diagnosis of reinfections and for post-treatment serological f

The complex dynamic characteristics of a shipboard power system (SPS) are not only related to its continuous dynamics but also influenced by discrete control behavior.Especially, during combat mission execution of high-power pulse loads (HPPLs), their operation plan as a sequence of discrete control events will cause successive abrupt changes in th

Here, we report on carbon nanotube paper-based electroanalytical devices.A highly aligned-carbon nanotube (HA-CNT) array, grown using chemical vapor deposition (CVD), was processed to form bi-layered paper with an integrated cellulose-based Origami-chip as the electroanalytical device.We used Statistics of Smoke Sphericity and Optical Properties Us

Irina Saburova and her place in the emigration space The life of some writers-emigrants developed in such a way that it is difficult to clearly ascribe them to one of the waves of emigration.This question comes up quite often when considering the artists who belong to the first and second wave of migration.The emigrants found themselves outside the
