RESUMEN
Fenugreek is often hidden in processed foods, where it is included in the generic term spice on food labels. Cross-reactivity of peanut and fenugreek should be considered in the management of peanut allergy.
RESUMEN
In organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on materials that show thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), the internal quantum efficiency of 100 % can be obtained without using phosphorescence-based organometallics that contain rare metals. Therefore, with TADF-based emitters, it is possible to fabricate high-performing OLEDs at a lower cost. However, compared with fluorescence- and phosphorescence-based OLEDs, an understanding of degradation mechanisms in TADF-based OLEDs is still insufficient for future commercialization. In particular, it is widely recognized that the development of electron transport materials is crucial for improving OLED characteristics, especially driving voltages and operational durability. In this study, it was demonstrated that the operational durability of TADF-based OLEDs was greatly improved by introducing a triazine-based material of 2,4,6-tris(1,1'-biphenyl-4-yl)-[1,3,5]triazine (pT2T) as a hole-blocking layer (HBL) compared with a conventional HBL material of 2,4,6-tris(biphenyl-3-yl)-[1,3,5]triazine (T2T). Several experiments were carried out to make the reasons of the improved durability clearer, and attributed the improved durability to the shift of a carrier recombination zone from the emitting layer/HBL interface and the suppressed formation of excited-state quenchers in the pT2T HBL, because of the higher electron mobility of pT2T and the better stability of its radical anion state.
RESUMEN
We measured integrated backscatter (IBS) in the brain of preterm infants using acoustic ultrasound. The study group consisted of 25 preterm infants (gestational age, 32.4+/-2.5 weeks; birth weight, 1488+/-422 g). In parasagittal scans through the posterior horn of the lateral ventricle, regions of interest (ROI) were positioned in the cerebral white matter near the posterior horn (P), anterior horn (A) of the lateral ventricle, and the thalamus (T). IBS of the ROI was measured and IBS of P minus T (P-T) and IBS of A minus T (A-T) were calculated. A-T was greater than P-T. A-T and P-T decreased with increasing gestational age and birth weight. These changes may represent maturation of the cerebrum. A-T or P-T may be useful parameters of cerebral tissue characterization.
