Identification of the bioactive compounds of skin mucus from asian swamp eel (monopterus albus) using liquid chromatography quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry
Published 2019“…However, their potential values as novel sources of therapeutic agents have not been widely appreciated. Like most other tropical fishes and amphibians, the outer integumentary system of Monopterus albus is covered with mucus layers, which may act as a mechanical and biochemical barrier for their skin. …”

Image quality and radiation dose comparison in medium and high kilovoltage for digital PA chest radiography
Published 2019“…Conclusions: Medium kVp should be used to demonstrate pathological conditions as well structures composed of calcium like the rib, spine or calcified lesions. Otherwise, high kVp is the preferred choice due to its low radiation dose and overall image quality acceptability.…”

Structural features distinguishing infectious ex vivo mammalian prions from non-infectious fibrillar assemblies generated in vitro
Published 2019“…Seeded polymerisation of proteins forming amyloid fibres and their spread in tissues has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple neurodegenerative diseases: so called "prion-like" mechanisms. While ex vivo mammalian prions, composed of multichain assemblies of misfolded host-encoded prion protein (PrP), act as lethal infectious agents, PrP amyloid fibrils produced in vitro generally do not. …”
