BACKGROUND Transcutaneous exposure to food allergens can lead to food sensitization (FS)/food allergy (FA). We measured skin barrier function in early infancy and related it to the later development of FS/FA at age 2 years. OBJECTIVE We sought to examine the relationship between early life skin barrier function and FA in infancy. METHODS Infants in the Babies After Scope: Evaluating the Lon...

This Technical Overview shows that the Agilent Buffer Advisor software in com‐ bination with the Agilent 1260 Infinity Bio‐inert Quaternary LC System is an ideal solution for automated protein separation by ionic strength gradients. Usually, pH scouting using premixed two‐component gradients is time‐consuming and work‐ intensive. Dynamically mixed four‐component gradients calculated by the Buff...

In a pair of recent articles, the author develops a general version of small cancellation theory applicable in higher dimensions ([5]), and then applies this theory to the Burnside groups of sufficiently large exponent ([6]). More specifically, these articles prove that the free Burnside groups of exponent n ≥ 1260 are infinite groups which have a decidable word problem. The structure of the fi...

The influence of Hf on the heat treatment response a Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) fabricated Ni-base superalloy was investigated. A Hf-free version CM247LC, CM247LC NHf, and (~1.4 wt% Hf) were subjected to identical thermal treatments characterized. After solutionizing at 1260 °C for 2 h, both alloys displayed recrystallization grain growth. NHf had numerous annealing twins suggesting that i...

An audit of hypertension management was done in October 2004 in nine general practice (GP) clinics. Two structure, ten process and two outcome indicators were assessed. Results showed that targets were achieved in only four indicators, i.e., weight recording (89%), BP monitoring (85.8%), follow-up interval not exceeding 6 months (87.9%) and mean diastolic BP (73.9%). The other indicators (hyper...

The applicability of Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) can be substantially enhanced by coupling SFC to Mass Spectrometric detection (MSD). In this Technical Overview, two instrument configurations are described that can be used to connect the Agilent 1260 Infinity Analytical SFC to a mass spectrometer either using an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) or an electrospray (ES...

detected in these blank determinations that we were not certain whether it came from the Soluene or other sources. You may note that the blood of control rats which was analyzed with the use of Soluene did not contain detectable amounts of asbestos and zero fibers per gram was reported. We have since repeated this work (as yet unpublished) in an experiment in which asbestos was fed to rats and ...
