Utilization of Artificial Intelligence Coupled with a High-Throughput, High-Content Platform in the Exploration of Neurodevelopmental Toxicity of Individual and Combined PFAS by Seth D. Currie, David Blake Benson, Zhong-Ru Xie, Jia-Sheng Wang, Lili Tang

“…This study selected eleven PFAS commonly found in drinking water and exposed Caenorhabditis elegans to concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 200 µM to assess neurodevelopmental toxicity using a high-throughput, high-content screening (HTS) platform coupled with artificial intelligence for image analysis. Our findings showed that PFAS such as 6:2 FTS, HFPO-DA, PFBA, PFBS, PFHxA, and PFOS inhibited dopaminergic neuron activity, with fluorescence intensity reductions observed across concentrations from 0.1 to 100 µM. …”

Traffic safety evaluation of emerging mixed traffic flow at freeway merging area considering driving behavior by Yaqin He, Dingshan Xiang, Daobin Wang

“…First, human drivers’ driving behaviors were classified into aggressive driving, normal driving, and conservative driving using a k-means clustering algorithm based on field dataset analysis. Next, an improved lane-changing model of HDVs, accounting for driving behavior, was developed by incorporating lane-changing duration and a lane-changing motivation function within a multi-objective optimization framework. …”

Effects of Roasting on Antibacterial and Antioxidant Properties of <i>Sophora japonica</i> Buds—The Involvements of Rutin and Quercetin Constituents by Hieu Chi Nguyen, Hang Thi Thuy Hoang, Atsushi Miyamoto, Tien Dung Nguyen, Ha Thi Thanh Nguyen

“…The results showed that dark yellow-roasted SJ buds exerted the strongest antibacterial and antioxidant activities and were also the richest in polyphenol contents. Analysis of rutin and quercetin revealed that, following the increment in heating temperatures up to 240 °C, the reduction in rutin content occurred in a parallel manner to the increment in quercetin content. …”
