In this context, the spread of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens is considered to be one of the most important threats in the healthcare sector [3].

The following examples serve two purposes: first, as a practical guide on how to apply continuous Floquet theory to various experimental schemes, and second, to demonstrate the importance of the finite duration of pulse sequences for the description of near-resonance behavior. The procedure for applying continuous Floquet theory consists of four main steps. Define the extent of your spin system that is required for the experiment to be described.

Thirty-five participants were recruited in this single-center, cross-sectional study from the memory clinic and communities in Shanghai. All participants underwent a PET/MRI scan with [18F]PSS232 to investigate mGluR5 availability and a PET/CT scan with [18F]Florbetapir to determine Aβ deposition, including 19 AD and 16 NCs. Fourteen AD patients and sixteen NCs further underwent an [18F]FDG PET/CT scan to evaluate glucose metabolism.

Narrow substrate ranges can impact heavily on the range of applications and hence commercial viability of candidate bioremediation enzymes. Here we show that an ester hydrolase from Nocardioides strain SG-4 G has potential as a bioremediation agent against various pollutants which can be detoxified by hydrolytic cleavage of some carboxylester, carbamate or amide linkages.
