A novel fluorescence detector based on collinear scheme using a brightness light-emitting diode emitting at 470nm as excitation source is described. The detector is assembled by all-solid-state optical-electronic components and coupled with capillary electrophoresis using on-column detection mode. Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and FITC-labeled amino acids and small molecule peptide as test ...

How does it work? During a mammogram, a patient’s breast is placed on a flat support plate and compressed with a parallel plate called a paddle. An x-ray machine produces a small burst of x-rays that pass through the breast to a detector located on the opposite side. The detector can be either a photographic film plate, which captures the x-ray image on film, or a solid-state detector, which tr...

background: radon concentration was measured in the soil and indoor of amman and al- rusaifa cities in jordan during summer season. materials and methods: the measurement was performed using time-integrated passive radon dosimeters, containing a solid state nuclear track plastic detector, commercially known as cr-39. results: radon concentration levels in the soil ranged from 2.8 ± 1.2 to 6.9 ±...
