Identification of ketamine and norketamine in dried bloodstains on crime-scene surfaces by Risha Jasmine Nathan, Babajide Okeleye, Rabiu Abdullahi, Waliyu Oyebode

“…The present study has analysed the stability of ketamine and norketamine in DBS aged on common crime scene surfaces under various storage temperatures. Coloured linen fabric and glass slide, representing porous and non-porous surfaces, respectively, were stained with a defined volume of drug-fortified whole blood and stored at room temperature (20 °C), in the refrigerator (4 °C), and freezer (− 20 °C) for 1, 7, and 14 days. …”

JWST Reveals Spectral Tracers of Recent Surface Modification on Europa by Richard J. Cartwright, Charles A. Hibbitts, Bryan J. Holler, Ujjwal Raut, Tom A. Nordheim, Marc Neveu, Silvia Protopapa, Christopher R. Glein, Erin J. Leonard, Lorenz Roth, Chloe B. Beddingfield, Geronimo L. Villanueva

“…These results support the hypothesis that H _2 O ice in Europa’s regolith is vertically stratified, with amorphous ice grains dominating its exposed surface, except in Tara and Powys Regiones. We also find that a previously detected 4.38 μ m ^13 CO _2 feature is present almost exclusively at southern latitudes in Tara and Powys Regiones, likely derived from an internal source of carbon-bearing material.…”

UNDERWATER OBJECT SHAPE DETECTION BASED ON TONAL DISTRIBUTION AND EDGE DETECTION USING DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING by Andy Suryowinoto, Teguh Herlambang, Muhammad Sawal Baital, Berny Pebo Tomasouw

“…The method used in this research is to combine tonal distributions with object edge detection in digital image processing. The test results show that object detection tests in clear and turbid water can detect objects even though they are using a low-cost and low-resolution camera, but with the help of adequate lighting it can be done. …”

Electrocatalytic detection of Acetaminophen by sodium ferrite by Saima Perveen, Jameel Ahmed Baig, Mohammad Nur-e-Alam, Mohsin Kazi, Shahabuddin Memon, Tasneem Gul Kazi, Khalil Akhtar, Sajjad Hussain

“…Na2Fe4O7-NPs were deposited on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to manufacture an electrochemical sensor (Na2Fe4O7-NPs/GCE) and characterized its surface behaviour by cyclic voltammetry. Na2Fe4O7-NPs/GCE voltammetric sensor showed its selective sensing of APN in a wide dynamic range (1.0 × 10-8 to 4.5 × 10-4 M) with a detection limit of 2.72 10-9 M. …”
