Association between Emission Parameters and Material-phase Concentrations of Phthalate Plasticizers and their Alternatives by Chenyang Bi, Clara M. A. Eichler, Chunyi Wang, John C. Little

“…In this work, we measured key parameters governing the emission of several phthalates and also their most recent emerging alternatives. Measurements include the gas-phase concentration in equilibrium with the material, y0, and the vapor pressure, p*, using polyvinyl chloride (PVC) sheets with relatively high, but accurately known levels of the material-phase concentration, C0, of the target plasticizers. …”

Serum hepcidin level with iron profile assay might replace bone marrow iron study as a diagnostic tool for evaluation of anemia in elderly without chronic renal disease by Sukdev Manna, Sankha Shubhra Chakrabarti, Rohit Singh, Indrajeet Singh Gambhir

“…A subset of patients is misdiagnosed when the serum hepcidin level is used as a sole marker, and this also holds true for serum ferritin. Conclusion: Though serum hepcidin level correlates well with serum iron profile and also serum hepcidin appears to be a useful marker to differentiate ACD from IDA in terms of both sensitivity and specificity, the combined assessment of serum hepcidin and iron profile appears to be a better marker than ferritin and hepcidin alone. …”
