A Non-fluorescent Derivative from Derivatizing trans, trans-Muconic Acid with 2-(2-Naphthoxy)ethyl-2-(piperidino)ethanesulfonate
trans, trans-Muconic acid (MA) is a polar metabolite of benzene and used as a biomarker for monitoring human exposure to benzene. Because MA is a trace metabolite, sensitive method is required for its detection. ...

Detecting small lung tumors in mouse models by refractive-index microradiology
Refractive-index (phase-contrast) radiology was able to detect lung tumors less than 1 mm in live mice. Significant micromorphology differences were observed in the microradiographs between normal, inflamed, a...
