Biological sample selection and collection The study objects of pharmacometabolomics can be divided into animal samples (urine, serum, plasma, tissues, organs, saliva, alveolar flush, cerebrospinal fluid, etc.) and human samples (urine, serum, plasma, saliva, tears, hair, etc.) according to their sources. In general, liquid biological samples ...
Nevertheless, the literature reports up to 20% to 50% of hospitalized patients with ADHF have a poor response to IV loop diuretics.27,30,31 The use of weight loss, hemoconcentration, urine volume output, spot urine sodium, and clinical measures of congestion are proposed measures to determine appropriate diuretic response. ...

Clearly, it would be much more efficient to directly extract the ammonia from wastewater without converting it. One way is to use urine-diverting toilets, which already are commercially available, to separate urine from other sources of wastewater. Then the collected urine could be used as fertilizer after sanitizing it to remove ...

Increasing the K concentration in the rumen of sheep caused a decrease in plasma Mg in 12 hours, decreased urine Mg excretion and increased fecal Mg (Grace, et al, 1988). Prolonged infusion of KCl into the rumen significantly reduced plasma Mg levels from 2.3 to 2.0 mg/dl (Yano, et al, 1990). ...
Introduction hCG assays have high sensitivity and specificity for pregnancy1 Low levels of hCG are known to be co-produced with FSH during reproductive aging (during peri-menopause and menopause)2 Age of motherhood is increasing; 126,956 women over 40 gave birth in 2018* Average age of menopause is 51, with most women experiencing menopause between 40 and 58, however, the peri-menopause ...
Boat owners or rig operators are sternly regulated in regard to the way that they dispose of their boat sewage. There are many good reasons for this. For one, you want to make sure that you’re keeping the environment around your boat safe, for the good of everyone (including yourself). In order to ensure that everyone in U.S. national waters follows the same rules, the U.S. Coast Guard ...

The existing waste streams from the office are treated in the building; the black water from vacuum toilets is collected together with the organic waste in a concentrated manner and processed in a digester tank. The digestion process produces renewable energy in the form of biogas that is used to heat the building. The yellow water from the urinals is processed ...
Urine odor is a major challenge in the development of resource-oriented sanitation (ROS). ...
Separately collected urine is an attractive potential fertilizer because of its high nutrient content, low cost, and inherent linkage of urban wastewater management and peri-urban agriculture. Urine from waterless urinals was applied to corn and lettuce plants to examine the impact of urine application rates ...
Previous studies have indicated that volatile organic compounds specific to bladder cancer may exist in urine headspace, raising the possibility that they may be of diagnostic value for this particular cancer. To further examine this hypothesis, urine samples were collected from patients diagnosed with either bladder cancer or a non-cancerous ...
The first stage of any test is to collect a sample. Whether it’s water, biological tissues, or a sample from a production line, it must be representative of the bulk and not be altered in order to give accurate results. Most samples will have to be transported after they are collected – this might be just a few meters from a production line to the ...
To better characterize excretion of trenbolone acetate and estrogen metabolites, steers were assigned to one of the following treatment groups: control, given no implant, or treatment, administered a combination implant (200 mg trenbolone acetate; 40 mg estradiol). Blood, urine, and fecal samples were collected over the course of 112 days following implantation. ...
PAHs and their metabolites have carcinogenic and endocrine disrupting effects in human and wildlife, and can have serious consequences. We collected urine from 16 mammalian species and analyzed PY metabolites. ...
This paper discusses a urine diversion (UD) trial implemented within the institutional setting of the University of Technology Sydney that sought to identify key issues for public UD and reuse systems at scale in the Australian urban context. ...
The common academic perception of Roman fullonicae is significantly influenced by the fullonica of Stephanus (I 6, 7) in Pompeii, which is assumed to be a paradigmatic case study in this paper. The use of urine as an alkaline chemical agent in the soaping phase of the filling treatment process was overstated, with there also being no evidence of the fact that fullers ...
Therefore, a holistic approach is warranted for human excreta management, which could lead to pollution control, resource recovery and water conservation. Eco–sanitation (separate collection of faeces and urine employing urine diverting toilet) is good option at least for rural setting. ...
Urine-diverting dry toilets save water, reduce the demand for wastewater treatment and provide plant nutrients. The conditions in the collection chambers and the interlinked hygienic safety of subsequent faecal matter use in crop production are affected by the building design. ...
In some areas such as the Mathare slum, bush and outcrop as well as pronounced slopes provided favourable conditions for open defecation and due to the absence of better alternatives; this was seen to be a prominent practice among slum residents. Since waste collection services were lacking in the area, land and water contamination posed a hazard to public health. 3. ...
New sanitation concepts enable the recovery and reuse of these nutrients from feces and urine. Two possible sanitation concepts are presented, with varying degree of source separation leading to various recovery products. ...
