Fingerprints of 20 batches of M. micromalus fruit were established by HPLC and combined with hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) and principal component analysis (PCA) to estimate the common peaks on the basis of traditional similarity evaluation methods. Chromatographic peaks were identified as p-coumaric acid (P2), ferulic acid glycoside (P6), 4-O-β-Glucopyranosyl-cis-coumaric acid (P8), phloretin-2'-xyloglucoside (P10), phloridzin (P11) and quercetin-3-O-α-rhamnoside (P12) by UPLC-MS/MS method.

Arsenolipids are a class of lipid-soluble arsenic species. They are present in seafoods and show high potentials of cytotoxicity and neurotoxicity. Hindered by traditional low-throughput analytical techniques, the characterization of arsenolipids is far from complete. Read More

The malignant phenotypes of cancer are defined not only by its intrinsic tumor cells but also by the tumor infiltrating immune cells (TIICs) recruited to the cancer microenvironment. Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) immune microenvironment plays an important role in the tumorigenesis. This research investigated the characteristics of immune cell invasion of renal cell carcinoma and provided clues for future clinical implementation. Read More

Handwritten documents can be characterized by their content or by the shape of the written characters. We focus on the problem of comparing a person's handwriting to a document of unknown provenance using the shape of the writing, as is done in forensic applications. To do so, we first propose a method for processing scanned handwritten documents to decompose the writing into small graphical structures, often corresponding to letters. Read More

In recent years, the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and efforts to preserve food microbiota have induced renewed interest in phage therapy. Phage cocktails, instead of a single phage, are commonly used as antibacterial agents since the hosts are unlikely to become resistant to several phages simultaneously. While the spectrum of activity might increase with cocktail complexity, excessive phages could produce side effects, such as the horizontal transfer of genes that augment the fitness of host strains, dysbiosis or high manufacturing costs.
