RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Excessive intraoperative bleeding remains a challenge in limb surgeries. The exsanguination tourniquet ring has emerged as a potential solution for effective exsanguination and hemostasis. This study aims to evaluate its efficacy and safety compared to the conventional exsanguination and hemostasis approach (pneumatic tourniquet combined with Esmarch bandage). METHODS: This randomized controlled trial evaluates the exsanguination tourniquet ring's effectiveness and safety versus the conventional approach in 220 participants undergoing various limb surgeries. Allocation included experimental and control groups, assesses through efficacy (including intraoperative and total blood loss, hemoglobin levels, and exsanguination and hemostasis effectiveness) and safety (adverse event occurrence) indicators. RESULTS: The experimental group (n = 110) utilizes the exsanguination tourniquet ring, while the control group (n = 110) employs the conventional approach. As for intraoperative blood loss, the experimental group is non-inferior to the control group (p-value < 0.001). While no significant difference is found in total blood loss (for the full analysis set, p-value = 0.442; for the per protocol set, p-value = 0.976) and differences in postoperative and preoperative hemoglobin levels (for the full analysis set, p-value = 0.502; for the per protocol set, p-value = 0.928). Regarding exsanguination and hemostasis effectiveness, the full analysis set reveals significantly superior ratings in the experimental group compared to the control group (p-value = 0.002 < 0.05), while the per protocol set analysis indicates no significant difference between the groups (p-value = 0.504). As for safety indicators, adverse events related to the device are minimal in two groups, with only one severe event unrelated to the device. CONCLUSIONS: The exsanguination tourniquet ring is an effective and safe device for intraoperative blood loss control in various limb surgeries.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of the Esmarch bandage and exsanguination tourniquet rings (ETRs) in blood evacuation procedures using a controlled intra-subject design involving healthy volunteers. METHODS: A total of 20 healthy adult volunteers (12 males, 8 females) were recruited from the community. Participants underwent blood evacuation procedures on both legs, using the Esmarch bandage on one leg and the ETR on the other. The order of the procedures was randomized. Blood evacuation time, overall blood evacuation rate, and calf blood evacuation rate were measured using 99mTc-labeled red blood cell imaging. Paired t-tests were conducted to compare the effectiveness of the two methods. RESULTS: The ETRs demonstrated a significantly faster blood evacuation time compared to the Esmarch bandage (mean difference = -41.72 s, P < 0.0001). The overall blood evacuation rate was slightly higher for the ETRs (mean difference = 1.717%), though not statistically significant (P = 0.3680). The calf blood evacuation rate was significantly higher for the ETRs (mean difference = 6.86%, P = 0.0225). No significant discomfort or adverse reactions were reported by any participants. CONCLUSION: ETRs are more efficient in terms of blood evacuation time and calf blood evacuation rate compared to the Esmarch bandage, without causing significant discomfort or adverse reactions. These findings suggest that ETRs could be a preferable option in clinical settings for blood evacuation procedures.
RESUMO
This study examined parental autonomy support and psychological control and their relations with child biobehavioral functioning. Participants included 238 Chinese parent-child dyads (Mage-child = 8.38 years, 42.0% girls) in two cohorts (2013 and 2021). Parents in the 2021 cohort displayed higher levels of autonomy support and psychological control during the parent-child interaction than in the 2013 cohort. Parental psychological control was positively associated with emotion regulation and negatively associated with externalizing problems in the 2013 cohort, but not in the 2021 cohort. Parental psychological control was also negatively associated with vagal suppression in the 2021 cohort, but not in the 2013 cohort. The result suggests that sociocultural contexts may shape the display of parental behaviors and their significance for child development.
RESUMO
Throughout his career, John Schulenberg challenged us to understand adolescent development as the confluence of distal and proximal experiences along with critical transitions. Heeding this call, we examined whether chronic childhood peer victimization predicted adolescents' depressive symptoms via early-emerging depression growth trajectories, continued victimization into adolescence, and stress-amplification at the middle school transition. Self-reported depressive symptoms and teacher-reported and self-reported peer victimization were obtained from 636 youth (338 girls; Mage = 7.96 years, 66.7% White, 21.7% Black, 11.6% other) in the 2nd-9th grades. Latent growth curve analyses revealed that, by 7th grade, chronic childhood peer victimization was associated with depressive symptoms only through an indirect association with peer victimization in adolescence, underscoring how interrelated historical and ongoing interpersonal stressors contribute to adolescent psychopathology.
RESUMO
The rapid and sensitive detection of pathogenic and suspicious bioaerosols are essential for public health protection. The impact of pollen on the identification of bacterial species by Raman and Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra cannot be overlooked. The spectral features of the fourteen class samples were preprocessed and extracted by machine learning algorithms to serve as input data for training purposes. The two types of spectral data were classified using classification models. The partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) model achieved classification accuracies of 78.57% and 92.85%, respectively. The Raman spectral data were accurately classified by the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm, with a 100% accuracy rate. The two spectra and their fusion data were correctly classified with 100% accuracy by the random forest (RF) algorithm. The spectral processed algorithms investigated provide an efficient method for eliminating the impact of pollen interference.

Emotional support from friends is a crucial source of social support for adolescents, significantly influencing their psychological development. However, previous research has primarily focused on how this support correlates with general levels of socioemotional problems among adolescents, neglecting the significance of daily fluctuations in these problems. The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between friend emotional support and both the average and dynamic indicators of daily emotional and peer problems in adolescents. These dynamic indicators include within-domain dynamics-such as inertia, which reflects the temporal dependence of experiences, and volatility, which indicates within-person variance-and cross-domain dynamics, such as transactional effects, which measure the strength of concurrent or lagged associations between daily emotional and peer problems. Participants were 315 seventh-grade Chinese adolescents (Mage = 13.05 years, SD = 0.77 years; 48.3% girls). Adolescents reported on their friends' emotional support at baseline and then completed measures of daily emotion and peer problems over a 10-day period. Using dynamic structural equation models, the results revealed that higher levels of friend emotional support were associated with fewer daily socioemotional problems. This was evident both in terms of average levels and dynamic aspects, characterized by lower mean levels of daily emotional and peer problems, reduced inertia and volatility of these problems, and a weaker spillover effect from daily emotional issues to peer problems. These findings highlight the significant role of friend-emotional support in mitigating adolescents' daily socioemotional challenges.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Emotion regulation (ER) is considered central in adolescent psychopathology, and ER strategies may change during challenging times, such as a global pandemic. Despite this, there remains a limited understanding of individual differences in ER mechanisms and their associations with psychopathology. This study examined whether and how cognitive reappraisal, expressive suppression, and self-compassion changed over COVID-19 and how these changes uniquely predicted adolescents' depressive symptoms. METHODS: A total of 2,411 adolescents (58.6% females; Mage = 18.51, SD = 0.80) completed the Emotional Regulation Questionnaire, the Self-compassion Scale, and the Symptom Checklist-90 before COVID-19 (in 2019) and during COVID-19 (in 2020). The predictive associations between each ER strategy and depressive symptoms were tested with latent change score models. RESULTS: Adolescents' use of expressive suppression and self-compassion strategies both increased during COVID-19. More increases in expressive suppression predicted more depressive symptoms, whereas more increases in self-compassion predicted fewer depressive symptoms. Although, on average, cognitive reappraisal did not change, it did show significant variations within the sample - increases (vs. decreases) in cognitive appraisal predicted fewer depressive symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: The study indicates how adolescents' ER strategies changed during the unprecedented global pandemic. It underscores protective roles of increased cognitive reappraisal and self-compassion, as well as the adverse consequence of heightened expressive suppression on adolescents' depressive symptoms. Findings offer insights for targeted interventions aimed at addressing specific ER strategies.
RESUMO
Respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA; a measure of respiratory modulation of vagal control of heart rate) is a dynamic process. For mothers, RSA functioning has been associated with depressive symptoms and coincides with supportive parenting. However, research has largely focused on RSA suppression (i.e., difference score from rest to stress task). The present study examined depressive symptoms and supportive parenting with RSA instability-a dynamic measure of the magnitude of RSA change across a task. In two samples of mothers (N = 210), one with preschoolers (Study 1: n = 108, Mage = 30.68 years, SD = 6.06, 47.0% Black, 43.0% White) and one with adolescents (Study 2: n = 102, Mage = 35.51, SD = 6.51, 75.2% Black), RSA instability was calculated during an interaction task. In both studies, instrumental supportive parenting behaviors were negatively related to RSA instability. Findings provide preliminary support for RSA instability as an indicator of physiological dysregulation for mothers.

The pandemic and tremendous impact of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 alert us, despite great achievements in prevention and control of infectious diseases, we still lack universal and powerful antiviral strategies to rapidly respond to the potential threat of serious infectious disease. Various highly contagious and pathogenic viruses, as well as other unknown viruses may appear or reappear in human society at any time, causing a catastrophic epidemic. Developing broad-spectrum antiviral drugs with high security and efficiency is of great significance for timely meeting public health emergency and protecting the lives and health of the people. Hence, in this review, we summarized diverse broad-spectrum antiviral targets and corresponding agents from a medicinal chemistry prospective, compared the pharmacological advantages and disadvantages of different targets, listed representative agents, showed their structures, pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics characteristics, and conducted a critical discussion on their development potential, in the hope of providing up-to-date guidance for the development of broad-spectrum antivirals and perspectives for applications of antiviral therapy.

Conflict in peer and family relationships becomes more common in the adolescent period when compared to previous developmental periods. These typical developmental challenges can be exacerbated in the context of poor emotion regulation skills. Using daily diary data, the current study examined the stress spillover effects of peer and family stress on one another, as well as the moderating role of emotion regulation challenges (i.e., emotional inhibition, dysregulation). A sample of 310 Chinese adolescents (Mage = 13.02 years, SD = 0.76 years, 50.7% boys) completed an initial measure of emotion regulation difficulties, then reported on peer and family stress for 10 consecutive weekdays. Results indicated that there was an overall same-day peer stress spillover effect in which adolescents' peer stress on a given day was negatively associated with later conflictual interactions with their parents. Further, the relation between peer stress and same- and next-day family stress was exacerbated in the context of high levels of emotional inhibition. Family stress did not significantly relate to next-day peer stress, nor was this association moderated by difficulties with emotion regulation. These results highlight the temporal sequence of daily peer-to-family stress spillover. Though emotional inhibition may be culturally adaptive for maintaining interpersonal harmony, it can be maladaptive in managing stress for Chinese adolescents.

Physiological synchrony is an important biological process during which parent-child interaction plays a significant role in shaping child socioemotional adjustment. The present study held a context-dependent perspective to examine the conditional association between parent-child physiological synchrony and child socioemotional adjustment (i.e., relationship quality with parents and child emotion regulation) under different (i.e., from highly unsupportive to highly supportive) emotional contexts. One hundred and fifty school-age Chinese children (Mage = 8.64 years, 63 girls) and their primary caregivers participated in this study. After attaching electrocardiogram (ECG) electrodes, parent-child dyads were instructed to complete a 4-minute conflict discussion task. Parent-child physiological synchrony was calculated based on the within-dyad association between parents' and children's respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) levels across eight 30-second epochs. Parental emotional support, child relationship quality with parents, and child emotion regulation during the discussion task were coded by trained research assistants. Supporting our hypotheses, parental emotional support moderated the relations of parent-child RSA synchrony with both child relationship quality with parents and child emotion regulation. Furthermore, the Johnson-Neyman technique of moderation indicated that the associations between parent and child RSA synchrony and child socioemotional adjustment indicators shifted from negative to positive as the parental emotional support became increasingly high. Our findings suggest that parent-child physiological synchrony may not be inherently adaptive or maladaptive, highlighting the importance of understanding the function of parent-child physiological synchrony under specific contexts. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: Physiological synchrony may not be inherently adaptive or maladaptive, and the meanings of parent-child physiological synchrony might be contingent on contextual factors. Parental emotional support moderated the relations between parent-child respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) synchrony and child socioemotional adjustment indicators (i.e., child relationship quality with parents and child emotion regulation). More positive/less negative parent-child RSA synchrony was associated with better child socioemotional adjustment under a supportive emotional context, whereas with poorer child socioemotional adjustment under an unsupportive emotional context. These findings highlight the significance of considering the emotional context in physiological synchrony studies.
RESUMO
Parent-child interaction is crucial for children's cognitive and affective development. While bio-synchrony models propose that parenting influences interbrain synchrony during interpersonal interaction, the brain-to-brain mechanisms underlying real-time parent-child interactions remain largely understudied. Using functional near-infrared spectroscopy, we investigated interbrain synchrony in 88 parent-child dyads (Mage children = 8.07, 42.0% girls) during a collaborative task (the Etch-a-Sketch, a joint drawing task). Our findings revealed increased interbrain synchrony in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and temporo-parietal areas during interactive, collaborative sessions compared to non-interactive, resting sessions. Linear regression analysis demonstrated that interbrain synchrony in the left temporoparietal junction was associated with enhanced dyadic collaboration, shared positive affect, parental autonomy support, and parental emotional warmth. These associations remained significant after controlling for demographic variables including child age, child gender, and parent gender. Additionally, differences between fathers and mothers were observed. These results highlight the significant association between brain-to-brain synchrony in parent-child dyads, the quality of the parent-child relationship, and supportive parenting behaviors. Interbrain synchrony may serve as a neurobiological marker of real-time parent-child interaction, potentially underscoring the pivotal role of supportive parenting in shaping these interbrain synchrony mechanisms.

[Correction Notice: An Erratum for this article was reported in Vol 79(2) of American Psychologist (see record 2024-62662-005). In the article "Atypical Child-Parent Neural Synchrony Is Linked to Negative Family Emotional Climate and Children's Psychopathological Symptoms," by Haowen Su, Christina B. Young, Zhuo Rachel Han, Jianjie Xu, Bingsen Xiong, Zisen Zhou, Jingyi Wang, Lei Hao, Zhi Yang, Gang Chen, and Shaozheng Qin (American Psychologist, 2024, Vol. 79, No. 2, pp. 210-224, https://doi.org/10.1037/amp0001173), Figure 2 and its caption were corrected to fix a mismatch between the r coefficients and scatterplots. The caption was changed from "(c) Child-parent hippocampal activity concordance was significantly higher for boundary than nonboundary event time series (Z = 2.30, p = .01). (d) Child-parent vmPFC activity concordance was marginally significantly higher for boundary than nonboundary time series (Z = -1.39, p = .08)" to "(c) Child-parent vmPFC activity concordance was marginally significantly lower for boundary than nonboundary time series (Z = -1.39, p = .08). (d) Child- parent hippocampal activity concordance was significantly higher for boundary than nonboundary event time series (Z = 2.30, p = .01)." In addition, in the second sentence of the second paragraph of the "Reduced Child-Parent vmPFC Connectivity With the Hippocampus Links to Negative Family Emotional Climate and Children's Internalizing Symptoms" section, "anxious/depressed" and "internalizing" were switched. All versions of this article have been corrected.] Family emotional climate is fundamental to children's well-being and mental health. Family environments filled with negative emotions may lead to increased psychopathological symptoms in the child through dysfunctional child-parent interactions. Single-brain paradigms have uncovered changes in brain systems and networks related to negative family environments, but how the neurobiological reciprocity between child and parent brains is associated with children's psychopathological symptoms remains unknown. Here, we first investigated the relation between family emotional climate and children's psychopathological symptoms in 395 child-parent dyads. Using a naturalistic movie-watching functional magnetic resonance imaging technique in a subsample of 50 child-parent dyads, we further investigated the neurobiological underpinnings of how family emotional climates are associated with children's psychopathological symptoms through child-parent neural synchrony. Children from negative family emotional climate experienced significantly more severe psychopathological symptoms. In comparison to child-stranger dyads, child-parent dyads exhibited higher intersubject correlations in the dorsal and ventral portions of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), and greater concordance of activity with widespread regions critical for socioemotional skills. Critically, negative family emotional climate was associated with decreased intersubject functional correlation between the ventral-mPFC and the hippocampus during movie watching in child-parent dyads, which further accounted for higher children's internalizing symptoms. Together, our findings provide insights into the neurobiological mechanisms that negative family environments can cause and maintain psychopathological symptoms in children through atypical child-parent neural synchrony. This has important implications for a better understanding of how child-parent connections may mediate the relation between environmental risks and developmental outcomes.

The present study employed two key dynamic indicators (i.e., inertia and instability) to the psychophysiological research of child emotion regulation (ER) and examined whether respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) dynamics were associated with child ER during a stress task. Eighty-nine Chinese school-age children (Mage = 8.77 years, SD = 1.80 years; 46.1% girls) and their primary caregivers participated in the study. After controlling for RSA static reactivity, multiple regression analyses indicated that lower RSA inertia was related to fewer in-task negative emotions rated by children and their caregivers, and higher RSA instability was associated with better child trait ER. This study introduces physiological indicators of the dynamic aspects of parasympathetic activity to the study of child ER.

The optical remote sensing techniques are promising for the real-time detection, and identification of different types of hazardous biological materials. However, the received fluorescent spectra from a remote distance suffer from the atmospheric attenuation effect upon the spectral shape. To investigate the influence of atmospheric attenuation on characterizing, and classifying biological agents, the laboratory-measured fluorescence data of fourteen proteins combined with the atmospheric transmission factors of the MODTRAN model were conducted with different detection ranges. The multivariate analysis techniques of principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and the predictors of Random Forest and XGBoost were employed to assess the separability and distinguishability of different spectra recorded. The results showed that the spectral-shift effect on attenuated spectra varied as a function of the detection range, the atmospheric visibility, and the spectral distribution. According to the PCA and LDA analysis, the distribution of decomposed factors changed in the spectral explanatory power with the increasing attenuation effect, which was consistent with the hierarchical clustering results. Random Forest exhibited higher performance in classifying protein samples than that of XGBoost, while the two methods performed similarly in identifying harmful and harmless subgroups of proteins. Fewer subgroups decreased the sensitivity of the classification accuracy to the attenuation effect. Our analysis demonstrated that combining atmospheric transport models to build a fluorescence spectral database is essential for fast identification between spectra, and reduced classification criteria could facilitate the compatibility of spectral database and classification algorithms.

Bioaerosol detection technology represented by laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) cannot effectively detect bioaerosols in the presence of interferents such as plant-derived smoke, industrial waste gas, pollen and pollen debris which can produce strong non-biological fluorescence interference. To overcome this drawback, in this study, a novel method based on broad-spectrum high-efficiency magnetic enrichment and separation combined with adenosine triphosphate (ATP) bioluminescence was proposed for Escherichia coli (E. coli) bioaerosols rapid detection. First, E. coli bioaerosols mixed with interferents were collected. Core-shell Fe3O4@Polydopamine@Polyethyleneimine magnetic particles were used as bioaerosol enrichment materials to enrich E. coli bioaerosol sampling solutions. Subsequently, an ATP bioluminescence assay was performed to determine the concentration of E. coli. A linear relationship was observed between ATP bioluminescence intensity after enrichment and the E. coli bioaerosol concentration in the range of 870-49,098 particles per liter; the bioluminescence intensity measured after enrichment was significantly higher than that before enrichment, and this enrichment method provide a 6-fold better sensitivity in bioaerosol detection. More importantly, this method efficiently enriched and detected bioaerosols in plant-derived smoke. This method can effectively improve the sensitivity of ATP bioluminescence detection, and possesses the advantages of convenient operation and strong anti-interference ability. It also provides a foundation for the effective detection of bioaerosols mixed with interfering substances, and a reference for evaluating the sensitivity and anti-interference of LIF-based instruments.

In this work, a new D-shaped photonic crystal fibre sensor structure based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is purposed for measurement of analyte refractive index (RI). In this design, a silica cylinder is polished into a D-shaped silica material structure with a flattened surface where two Au nanowires are coated. Some air holes are omitted to form the core mode region. With the implementation of gold nanowires and a core region for the exciting SPR effect with variate physical values, analyte RI can be measured with a wavelength coverage from 850 to 1350nm. The numerical simulation shows the maximum wavelength sensitivity of the purposed design achieves 19,600nm/RIU with an RI coverage from 1.37 to 1.42. Moreover, the sensor has a tremendous amplitude sensitivity and the maximum absolute value is about 2300RIU-1. Benefiting from these outstanding performance, the purposed structure can be given priority when it is applied in biomedical detecting and environmental assessment science.
RESUMO
Childhood maltreatment exerts long-term consequences on sleep health, and different subtypes could constitute maltreatment patterns. However, how naturally occurring patterns of childhood maltreatment affect subsequent sleep quality and the underlying mechanisms remain relatively unclear, particularly in youths undergoing a transitional period and in the Chinese cultural context. In this study, we identified childhood maltreatment patterns and explored how these patterns predicted sleep problems through differential emotion regulation strategies. We tracked 1929 Chinese youths (M age = 18.49; 63.1% females) for one year. Three latent profiles were identified: low maltreatment exposure, high physical and emotional maltreatment, and high sexual abuse. Compared with "low maltreatment exposure," youths in "high physical and emotional maltreatment" used fewer cognitive reappraisal strategies, and those in "high sexual abuse" used more expressive suppression, and then leading to more sleep problems. This study reveals new insights into the patterns of childhood maltreatment in Chinese youths and implies that individuals exposed to sexual abuse or a combination of physical and emotional maltreatment experience sleep problems through the impairment of differential emotion regulation processes. It also highlights the necessity of setting differential targets on emotion regulation strategies for distinct groups of maltreatment and considering the co-occurrence of physical and emotional maltreatment.
RESUMO
Family, peers, and academics are three central sources of stress for Chinese adolescents, which have potential negative implications for youth's adjustment. This study investigated how within-person fluctuations in daily domains of stress (i.e., family, peer, and academic) and between-person differences in average stress levels were associated with four Chinese adolescent adjustment indicators (i.e., positive and negative emotions, sleep quality, and subjective vitality). Participants included 315 Chinese adolescents (48.3% girls; Mage = 13.05 years, SD = 0.77 years) who completed a 10-day diary on each domain of stress and indicators of adjustment. Multilevel models revealed that peer stress had the most detrimental association with Chinese adolescents' adjustment at both within-person (i.e., higher same-day and next-day negative emotions) and between-person (i.e., higher negative emotions, worse sleep quality, and lower subjective vitality) levels. Academic stress was only significant at the between-person level, corresponding to worse sleep quality and increased levels of negative emotions. Family stress exhibited mixed associations and was positively associated with positive and negative emotions and subjective vitality. These findings underscore the need to examine the impact of multiple domains of stress on Chinese adolescent adjustment. Further, identification and intervention for adolescents with elevated peer stress may be particularly helpful for increasing healthy adjustment.

Biological agents are important to detect and identify with respect to environmental contamination and public health. Noise contamination in fluorescent spectra is one of the contributors to the uncertainties of identification. In order to investigate the noise-tolerant capability provided by laboratory-measured excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectra that are used as a database, fluorescence properties of four proteinaceous biotoxin samples and ten harmless protein samples were characterized by EEM fluorescence spectra, and the predicting performance of models trained by laboratory-measured fluorescence data was tested and verified from validation data with noise-contaminated spectra. By means of peak signal of noise (PSNR) as an indicator of noise levels, the potential impact of noise contaminations on the characterization and discrimination of these samples was evaluated quantitatively. Different classification schemes utilizing multivariate analysis techniques of Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Random Forest (RF), and Multi-layer Perceptron (MPL) coupled with feature descriptors of differential transform (DT), Fourier transform (FT) and wavelet transform (WT) were conducted under different PSNR values. We systematically analyzed the performance of classification schemes by the case study at 20 PSNR and by statistical analysis from 1-100 PSNR. The results show that the spectral features with EEM-WT decreased the demanding number of input variables while retaining high performances in sample classification. The spectral features with EEM-FT presented the worst performance although having the largest number of features. The distributions of feature importance and contribution were found sensitive to noise contaminations. The classification scheme of PCA prior to MPL with EEM-WT as input presented an improvement in lower PSNR. These results indicate that robust features extracted by corresponding techniques are critical to enhancing the spectral differentiation capabilities among these samples and play an important role in eliminating the noise effect. The study of classification schemes for discriminating protein samples with noise-contaminated spectra presents tremendous potential for future developments in the rapid detection and identification of proteinaceous biotoxins based on three-dimensional fluorescence spectrometry.
