A Cu2+-sensitive fluorescent probe P based on naphthalimide derivative was designed and characterized. Study showed that P had good selectivity to Cu2+ among the tested metal ions. The fluorescent intensity was proportional to the concentration of Cu2+ in the range of 1.5×10-6-7.0×10-6 M with a detection limit of 5.0×10-7 M Cu2+. The possible binding mode of P with Cu2+ was also proposed.

Background: Root canal treatment is a procedure that allows to preserve the dental organs, even when they have presented infectious processes due to the direct or indirect presence of microorganisms in the oral environment. For this reason, multiple technologies have been developed that allow endodontists to establish diagnoses and develop treatments with better results.
Antimicrobial disinfectants are widely used in different food processing industry across the world. In attention to extent uses of disinfectants, it is necessary to evaluate and validate the efficacy of disinfectants and employing the minimum effective dosages.
Objective: To compare the efficacy of the Cubbin-Jackson and Braden scales for assessing pressure ulcer risk in patients hospitalized in the Adult Intensive Care Unit of the Naval Medical Center. Background: There is evidence that 3-34% of patients hospitalized in general wards develop ulcers during their stay. Patients admitted to Intensive Care Units are at high risk of developing pressure ulcers, with an incidence ranging from 3.3 to 52.9%(1). On average, 7-23% of hospitalized patients in Europe and North America have pressure ulcers.
The condition of care in the critical care unit scenario, based on the perception of the patient hospitalized in an ICU, is being analyzed as an object of study because it represents a situational crisis for the patient, caused by the critical condition of his health, in an environment with advanced technology where the nursing professional and the patient coincide. In such a way that the connection of the patient with the environment is broken, which implies that he depends on humanized care.
Hematology analysis is a swift test of blood to help monitoring health condition of fish in natural fisheries of suspected polluted rivers. To evaluate health status of fish in the White Nile River at southern Khartoum City, a total of 120 different fish species were collected from both the targeted upstream polluted area and from the non-polluted upstream area. According to routine clinical methods, the hematological parameters of PCV, Hb, WBC, RBC, MCV, MCH and MCHC were investigated.
