NMR SPECTROSCOPY IDENTIFIES CHEMICALS IN CIGARETTE SMOKE CONDENSATE THAT IMPAIR SKELETAL MUSCLE MITOCHONDRIAL FUNCTION

NMR Spectroscopy Identifies Chemicals in Cigarette Smoke Condensate That Impair Skeletal Muscle Mitochondrial Function

Tobacco smoke-related diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are associated with high healthcare burden and mortality rates.Many COPD patients were reported to have muscle atrophy and weakness, with several studies suggesting intrinsic muscle mitochondrial impairment as a possible driver of this phenotype.Whereas much informa

Feature Extraction Technique Using Weighted Histogram Analysis Method (WHAM) for Herbs Discrimination Based on Gas Chromatography Signal

Herbs discrimination by investigating volatile compound using Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GCMS) Foils is a common method adopted by botanists and scientists.Based on this common method, usually botanists and scientists would only focus on the major volatile compound in order to determine the species of the herbs.However, it is difficult t
