Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is one of the leading causes of global cardiovascular mortality. If left untreated, high blood pressure can lead to several pathologic changes in the cardiovascular system such as left ventricular hypertrophy and fibrosis. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) are a key component of the recommended treatment for hypertension and […]

At the end of several weeks of work to integrate and requalify the new ambient gamma measurement channels in a controlled area in the fuel building (FB), the reactor building (RB) and the fuel transfer building (FTB), the Bertin technicians installed the first eight ionizing radiation monitoring channels at the Civaux nuclear power plant on […]

In the past years, cannabis has attracted increasing attention due to the rising instances of its legalization for recreational use and for medical benefits. The sample preparation protocol is crucial for the success of most standard analytical methods used to study cannabis. The efficiency of 3D-beating technology is considered to be the gold standard for […]

Bacteriophages are viruses that can infect bacteria. Manufacture of products such as cheese, sour cream and buttermilk requires the use of lactic acid bacteria susceptible to be infected. In order to avoid infection, it is important to determine the bacteriophages concentration in the environment and implement measures to control their levels. In this new application […]

Discover or get extensive knowledge on Second Sight MS, a precious support in the fight against chemical threats. More than ever, chemical threats are a major issue for public safety and national sovereignty. In order to provide an adequate response to any incident related to an intended or accidental release of chemical gas, high performance […]

Out of the three planetary biospheres: lithosphere (soil), hydrosphere (water), and atmosphere (air), the atmosphere has been, paradoxically, the least investigated for its microbial content. The study of the atmosphere as a microorganism-harboring ecosystem has been technically challenging for years.1 Since 2010, the Coriolis air samplers have been increasingly used in multiple sectors, from academic […]
