Xenon Xe 129 hyperpolarized, sold under the brand name Xenoview, is a hyperpolarized contrast agent indicated for use with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for evaluation of lung ventilation, and approved for people aged twelve years of age and older. [4] [5] It was approved for medical use in the US in December 2022. [6]
Naturally occurring xenon (54 Xe) consists of seven stable isotopes and two very long-lived isotopes. Double electron capture has been observed in 124 Xe (half-life 1.8 ± 0.5(stat) ± 0.1(sys) × 10 22 years) [2] and double beta decay in 136 Xe (half-life 2.165 ± 0.016(stat) ± 0.059(sys) × 10 21 years), [7] which are among the longest measured half-lives of all nuclides.
Electrochemical aptamer-based (E-AB) biosensors is a device that takes advantage of the electrochemical and biological properties of aptamers to take real time, in vivo measurements. An electrochemical aptamer-based (E-AB) biosensor generates an electrochemical signal in response to specific target binding in vivo [ 3 ] The signal is measured ...
Spontaneous fission of 238 U has generated ~5% [5] as much fissiogenic Xe as 244 Pu. Pu and U fission produce the four fissiogenic isotopes, 136 Xe, 134 Xe, 132 Xe, and 131 Xe in distinct proportions. A reservoir that remains an entirely closed system over Earth's history has a ratio of Pu- to U-derived fissiogenic Xe reaching to ~27. [6]
Bio-FETs couple a transistor device with a bio-sensitive layer that can specifically detect bio-molecules such as nucleic acids and proteins. A Bio-FET system consists of a semiconducting field-effect transistor that acts as a transducer separated by an insulator layer (e.g. SiO 2) from the biological recognition element (e.g. receptors or probe molecules) which are selective to the target ...
The biosensor reader device connects with the associated electronics or signal processors that are primarily responsible for the display of the results in a user-friendly way. [5] This sometimes accounts for the most expensive part of the sensor device, however it is possible to generate a user friendly display that includes transducer and ...
Canteen Stores Department, Bangladesh (CSD) is a military-affiliated retail chain store in Bangladesh. [1] [2] Owned and controlled by the Bangladesh Army, [2] it provides a variety of food, electronics and other consumer goods. [2] Army personnel are entitled to special discounts at all CSD outlets.
In addition to compounds where xenon forms a chemical bond, xenon can form clathrates—substances where xenon atoms or pairs are trapped by the crystalline lattice of another compound. One example is xenon hydrate (Xe· 5 + 3 ⁄ 4 H 2 O), where xenon atoms occupy vacancies in a lattice of water molecules. [32] This clathrate has a melting ...
