, for the passive sampling of 19 agricultural pesticides. We performed qualitative and semi-quantitative comparisons of the performances of passive {SBSE} firstly to automated sampling coupled to analytical {SBSE}, and secondly to the polar organic chemical integrative sampler ({POCIS}), a well-known passive sampler for hydrophilic micropollutants. Applying passive {SBSE} in river waters allowed the quantification of more pesticides and in greater amounts than analytical {SBSE} as shown for samples collected concurrently. Also, passive {SBSE} and {POCIS} proved to be complementary techniques in terms of detected molecules; but only passive {SBSE} was able to integrate a concentration peak triggered by a quick flood event that lasted 5 h. Passive {SBSE} could be an interesting tool for the monitoring of moderately hydrophobic to hydrophobic organic micropollutants in changing hydrosystems. In this purpose, further studies will focus on the accumulation kinetics of target pesticides and the determination of their sampling rates.},

	abstract = {Micropollutant monitoring in stormwater discharges is challenging because of the diversity of sources and thus large number of pollutants found in stormwater. This is further complicated by the dynamics in runoff flows and the large number of discharge points. Most passive samplers are nonideal for sampling such systems because they sample in a time-integrative manner. This paper reports test of a flow-through passive sampler, deployed in stormwater runoff at the outlet of a residential-industrial catchment. Momentum from the water velocity during runoff events created flow through the sampler resulting in velocity dependent sampling. This approach enables the integrative sampling of stormwater runoff during periods of weeks to months while weighting actual runoff events higher than no flow periods. Results were comparable to results from volume-proportional samples and results obtained from using a dynamic stormwater quality model ({DSQM}). The paper illustrates how velocity-dependent flow-through passive sampling may revolutionize the way stormwater discharges are monitored. It also opens the possibility to monitor a larger range of discharge sites over longer time periods instead of focusing on single sites and single events, and it shows how this may be combined with {DSQMs} to interpret results and estimate loads over extended time periods.},

	abstract = {Solid-phase microextraction ({SPME}) is a biomimetic tool ideally suited for measuring bioavailability of hydrophobic organic compounds ({HOCs}) in sediment and soil matrices. However, conventional {SPME} sampling requires the attainment of equilibrium between the fiber and sample matrix, which may take weeks or months, greatly limiting its applicability. In this study, we explored the preloading of polydimethylsiloxane fiber with stable isotope labeled analogs ({SI}-{SPME}) to circumvent the need for long sampling time, and evaluated the performance of {SI}-{SPME} against the conventional equilibrium {SPME} (Eq-{SPME}) using a range of sediments and conditions. Desorption of stable isotope-labeled analogs and absorption of {PCB}-52, {PCB}-153, bifenthrin and cis-permethrin were isotropic, validating the assumption for {SI}-{SPME}. Highly reproducible preloading was achieved using acetone-water (1:4, v/v) as the carrier. Compared to Eq-{SPME} that required weeks or even months, the fiber concentrations (Cf) under equilibrium could be reliably estimated by {SI}-{SPME} in 1 day under agitated conditions or 20 days under static conditions in spiked sediments. The Cf values predicted by {SI}-{SPME} were statistically identical to those determined by Eq-{SPME}. The {SI}-{SPME} method was further applied successfully to field sediments contaminated with {PCB} 52, {PCB} 153, and bifenthrin. The increasing availability of stable isotope labeled standards and mass spectrometry nowadays makes {SI}-{SPME} highly feasible, allowing the use of {SPME} under nonequilibrium conditions with much shorter or flexible sampling time.},

	abstract = {Air sampling based on diffusion of target molecules from the atmospheric gas phase to passive sampling media ({PSMs}) is currently modeled using the two-film approach. Originally developed to describe chemical exchange between air and water, it assumes a uniform chemical distribution in the bulk phases on either side of the interfacial films. Although such an assumption may be satisfied when modeling uptake in {PSMs} in which chemicals have high mobility, its validity is questionable for {PSMs} such as polyurethane foam disks and {XAD}-resin packed mesh cylinders. Mass transfer of chemicals through the {PSMs} may be subject to a large resistance because of the low mass fraction of gas-phase chemicals in the pores, where diffusion occurs. Here we present a model that does not assume that chemicals distribute uniformly in the {PSMs}. It describes the sequential diffusion of vapors through a stagnant air-side boundary layer and the {PSM} pores, and the reversible sorption onto the {PSM}. Sensitivity analyses reveal the potential influence of the latter two processes on passive sampling rates ({PSRs}) unless the air-side boundary layer is assumed to be extremely thick (i.e., representative of negligible wind speeds). The model also reveals that the temperature dependence of {PSRs}, differences in {PSRs} between different compounds, and a two-stage uptake, all observed in field calibrations, can be attributed to those mass transfer processes within the {PSM}. The kinetics of chemical sorption to the {PSM} from the gas phase in the macro-pores is a knowledge gap that needs to be addressed before the model can be applied to specific compounds.},

Long-term desorption experiments were conducted using field-collected polyethylene ({PE}) pellets. The results indicate that the desorption kinetics highly depends on the {PE}-water partition coefficients of {PCB} congeners. After 128 d of the experiment, the smallest congener considered ({CB} 8) had desorbed nearly completely (98\%), whereas major fractions (90-99\%) of highly chlorinated congeners remained in the pellets. An intraparticle diffusion model mostly failed to reproduce the desorption kinetics, whereas an aqueous boundary layer ({ABL}) diffusion model well approximated the data. The desorption half-lives are estimated to 14 d to 210 years for {CB} 8 to {CB} 209 in an actively stirred solution ({ABL} thickness: 30 mum). Addition of methanol to water enhanced the desorption to a large extent. A need for further work to explore roles of organic matter in facilitating solute transfer is suggested.},

The nanoporous membrane not only acts as platform for the thrombin recognition but also as filter of the micrometric components such as white and red blood cells, consequently minimizing matrix effects. The protocol involves a sandwich format in the inner walls (200 nm diameter) of an anodized alumina oxide filter membrane ({AAO}). The analytical signal, by {DPV} oxidation of [Fe({CN})(6)](4-), is based on the blockage in the pores which affects the diffusion of [Fe({CN})(6)](4-) to the screen-printed carbon electrotransducer ({SPCEs}) modified with the membrane. By labeling the anti-thrombin {IgG} with {AuNPs} followed by silver enhancement a greater passive signal enhancement in comparison to the membrane blockage has been observed. The contribution of both electrostatic/steric effects in this blockage due to the subsequent formation of the aptamer-thrombin complex and the final sandwich assay is investigated. The efficiency of the system is also monitored by microscopic techniques. The resulted biosensing system allows detecting thrombin spiked in whole blood at very low levels ({LOD} 1.8 ng {mL}(-1)) which are within the range of clinical interest for the diagnostic of coagulation abnormalities as well as pulmonary metastasis.},

	abstract = {Conventional solid phase microextraction ({SPME}) has a limited capacity to extract very polar analytes, such as adenosine. To solve this problem, aptamer conjugating sol-gel methodology was coupled with an {SPME} fiber. According to the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported use of aptamer {SPME}. The fiber of aptamer sol-gel {SPME} with a mesoporous structure has high porosity, large surface area, and small water contact angle. Rather than employing direct entrapment, covalent immobilization was the dominant method of aptamer loading in sol-gel. Aptamer sol-gel fiber captured a specified analyte from among the analog molecules, thereby, exhibiting an excellent selective property. Compared with commercial {SPME} fibers, this aptamer fiber was suitable for extracting adenosine, presenting an extraction efficiency higher than 20-fold. The values of repeatability and reproducibility expressed by relative standard deviation were low (9.4\%). Interestingly, the sol-gel network enhanced the resistance of aptamer {SPME} to both nuclease and nonspecific proteins. Furthermore, the aptamer sol-gel fiber was applied in human plasma with {LOQ} 1.5 mug/L, which is an acceptable level. This fiber also demonstrates durability and regeneration over 20-cycles without significant loss of efficiency. Given the various targets (from metal ions to biomacromolecules and cells) of aptamers, this methodology will extend the multi-domain applications of {SPME}.},

	abstract = {We studied the sorption of amphetamine as a model drug to represent small, polar organic cations to a new {SPME} coating combining C18 and propylsulfonic acid. This combination of hydrophobic and strong cation exchange ({SCX}) groups was compared to conventional {SPME} fibers with polyacrylate ({PA}) or C18 coating. The affinity of amphetamine at physiological {pH} ({PBS}) was 20 to 180 times greater for the new C18/{SCX} coating than for C18 alone and {PA} of different coating thickness. As amphetamine is a base and {\textgreater}99\% protonated at physiological {pH}, this enhanced affinity is attributed to the ion-exchange phase in the coating. Tests at {pH} above the {pKa} of amphetamine show that, when normalized to the coating volume, neutral amphetamine also has a higher affinity compared to {PA}. As ion-exchange groups are not unlimitedly present in the coating, amphetamine isotherms level off to a saturation concentration on the C18/{SCX} fiber at the highest tested aqueous concentrations. Also, other cations (Na(+), K(+), Ca(2+)) compete for the {SCX} sites and decrease the sorption coefficients, e.g. by 1.7 log units when comparing Milli-Q water with {PBS}. The C18/{SCX} fiber provides improved sensitivity over some of the classic {SPME} fibers. However, care should be taken near the cation exchange capacity of the fiber and the fiber should be calibrated in an appropriate matrix so as to eliminate competition effects.},

Recently, passive sampling devices have been utilized to estimate dissolved concentrations of contaminants of concern ({COCs}), such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ({PAHs}) and polychlorinated biphenyls ({PCBs}). In the present study, the performance of 3 common passive samplers was evaluated for sampling {PAHs} and {PCBs} at several stations in the temperate estuary Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island, {USA}. Sampler polymers included polyethylene ({PE}), polydimethylsiloxane ({PDMS})-coated solid-phase microextraction ({SPME}) fibers, and polyoxymethylene ({POM}). Dissolved concentrations of each contaminant were calculated using measured sampler concentrations adjusted for equilibrium conditions with performance reference compounds ({PRCs}) and chemical-specific partition coefficients derived in the laboratory. Despite differences in {PE} and {POM} sampler concentrations, calculated total dissolved concentrations ranged from 14 ng/L to 93 ng/L and from 13 pg/L to 465 pg/L for {PAHs} and {PCBs}, respectively. Dissolved concentrations of {PAHs} were approximately 3 times greater based on {POM} compared to {PE}, while dissolved concentrations of {PCBs} based on {PE} were approximately 3 times greater than those based on {POM}. Concentrations in {SPME} were not reported due to the lack of detectable chemical in the amount of {PDMS} polymer deployed. Continued research is needed to improve and support {PE} and {POM} use for the routine monitoring of {COCs}. For example, a better understanding of the use of {PRCs} with {POM} is critically needed.},

However, concentration estimates from {PAS} rely on constant empirical mass transfer rates, which add unquantified uncertainties to concentrations. Here we present a method for modeling hourly sampling rates for semivolatile compounds from hourly meteorology using first-principle chemistry, physics, and fluid dynamics, calibrated from depuration experiments. This approach quantifies and explains observed effects of meteorology on variability in compound-specific sampling rates and analyte concentrations, simulates nonlinear {PUF} uptake, and recovers synthetic hourly concentrations at a reference temperature. Sampling rates are evaluated for polychlorinated biphenyl congeners at a network of Harner model samplers in Chicago, {IL}, during 2008, finding simulated average sampling rates within analytical uncertainty of those determined from loss of depuration compounds and confirming quasilinear uptake. Results indicate hourly, daily, and interannual variability in sampling rates, sensitivity to temporal resolution in meteorology, and predictable volatility-based relationships between congeners. We quantify the importance of each simulated process to sampling rates and mass transfer and assess uncertainty contributed by advection, molecular diffusion, volatilization, and flow regime within the {PAS}, finding that {PAS} chamber temperature contributes the greatest variability to total process uncertainty (7.3\%).},

Inter alia, the role of mathematical modeling and computer-assisted device design is briefly addressed in the Position Paper. This emerging and particularly promising field is considered in more depth in this commentary. In fact, in-silico simulations have become of fundamental importance in numerous scientific and related domains, allowing for a better understanding of various phenomena and for facilitated device design. The development of novel prototypes of space shuttles, nuclear power plants and automobiles are just a few examples. In-silico simulations are nowadays also well established in the field of pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics ({PK}/{PD}) and have become an integral part of the discovery and development process of novel drug products. Since Takeru Higuchi published his seminal equation in 1961 the use of mathematical models for the analysis and optimization of drug delivery systems in vitro has also become more and more popular. However, applying in-silico simulations for facilitated optimization of advanced drug delivery systems is not yet common practice. One of the reasons is the gap between in vitro and in vivo ({PK}/{PD}) simulations. In the future it can be expected that this gap will be closed and that computer assisted device design will play a central role in the research on, and development of advanced drug delivery systems.},

Information on release kinetics is needed if performance reference compounds ({PRCs}) are used to quantify the influence of environmental conditions on the uptake. In a series of uptake and elimination experiments, we used Empore {SDB} disks (poly(styrenedivinylbenzene) copolymer modified with sulfonic acid groups) as a sampling phase and 22 compounds with a {logK}(ow) (octanol-water partitioning coefficient) range from -2.6 to 3.8. Uptake experiments were conducted in river water or tap water and lasted up to 25 days. Only 1 of 22 compounds (sulfamethoxazole) approached equilibrium in the uptake trials. Other compounds showed continuing non-linear uptake, even after 25 days. All compounds could be released from {SDB} disks, and desorption was proportionally higher in disks loaded for shorter periods. Desorption showed two-phase characteristics, and desorption was proportionally higher for passively sorbed compounds compared to actively loaded compounds (active loading was performed by pulling spiked river water over {SDB} disks using vacuum). We hypothesise that the two-phase kinetics and better retention of actively loaded compounds--and compounds loaded for a longer period--may be caused by slow diffusion of chemicals within the polymer. As sorption and desorption did not show isotropic kinetics, it is not possible to develop robust {PRCs} for adsorbent material like {SDB} disks.},

Mass balance theory was used to calculate recovery of 20 commercial and seven investigational compounds during ultrafiltration in the presence and absence of plasma. {PPB} was also measured using this mass balance approach for comparison to {PPB} determined by rapid equilibrium dialysis ({RED}) and as found in the literature. Compound recovery during {UF} was dramatically different in the presence and absence of plasma for compounds with high {NSB} in {PBS} only. A comparison of {PPB} calculated by ultrafiltration with literature values or calculated by {RED} gave concordant results. Discrepancies could be explained by changes in {pH}, insufficient time to equilibrium, or compound instability during {RED}, problems which were circumvented by ultrafiltration. Therefore, {NSB}, as measured by the traditional incubation of compound in {PBS}, need not be an issue when choosing {UF} as a {PPB} assay method. It is more appropriate to calculate compound recovery from the device in plasma as measured by mass balance to determine the suitability of the method for an individual compound. The speed with which {UF} can be conducted additionally avoids changes in {pH} or compound loss that can occur with other methods. The mass balance approach to {UF} is thus a preferred method for rapid determination of {PPB}.},

For fresh tar materials the release seems to be limited by retarded pore diffusion, while for two of three aged tars diffusion limited release influenced by dissolved organic matter ({DOM}) was assumed. The equilibration process was driven by solubilization thermodynamics expressed by Raoult's law. Yet, solubility enhancement was observed potentially due to the presence of organic mobile sorbents. The results show that the release of {PAHs} from tar phases is generally rate limited and partitioning according to Raoult's law is the driving mechanism of the exchanges process.},

	abstract = {Time-weighted average ({TWA}) passive sampling using solid-phase microextraction ({SPME}) and gas chromatography was investigated as a new method of collecting, identifying and quantifying contaminants in process gas streams. Unlike previous {TWA}-{SPME} techniques using the retracted fiber configuration (fiber within needle) to monitor ambient conditions or relatively stagnant gases, this method was developed for fast-moving process gas streams at temperatures approaching 300 degrees C. The goal was to develop a consistent and reliable method of analyzing low concentrations of contaminants in hot gas streams without performing time-consuming exhaustive extraction with a slipstream. This work in particular aims to quantify trace tar compounds found in a syngas stream generated from biomass gasification. This paper evaluates the concept of retracted {SPME} at high temperatures by testing the three essential requirements for {TWA} passive sampling: (1) zero-sink assumption, (2) consistent and reliable response by the sampling device to changing concentrations, and (3) equal concentrations in the bulk gas stream relative to the face of the fiber syringe opening. Results indicated the method can accurately predict gas stream concentrations at elevated temperatures. Evidence was also discovered to validate the existence of a second boundary layer within the fiber during the adsorption/absorption process. This limits the technique to operating within reasonable mass loadings and loading rates, established by appropriate sampling depths and times for concentrations of interest. A limit of quantification for the benzene model tar system was estimated at 0.02 g m(-3) (8 ppm) with a limit of detection of 0.5 mg m(-3) (200 ppb). Using the appropriate conditions, the technique was applied to a pilot-scale fluidized-bed gasifier to verify its feasibility. Results from this test were in good agreement with literature and prior pilot plant operation, indicating the new method can measure low concentrations of tar in gasification streams.},

In this work, the freely dissolved concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ({PAHs}) including phenanthrene, pyrene, and chrysene were determined for the Yellow River, Haihe River and Yongding River of China using polyethylene devices ({PEDs}). The results indicated that the order of ratios of freely to total dissolved concentrations of the three {PAHs} was phenanthrene (66.8+/-20.1\%){\textgreater}pyrene (48.8+/-26.4\%){\textgreater}chrysene (5.5+/-3.3\%) for the three rivers. The ratios were significantly negatively correlated with the {logK}(ow) values of the {PAHs}. In addition, the ratios were negatively correlated with the suspended sediment ({SPS}) and dissolved organic carbon ({DOC}) concentrations in the river water, and the characteristics of the {SPS} and {DOC} were also important factors. Simulation experiments showed that the ratio of freely to total dissolved concentrations of pyrene in the aqueous phase decreased with increasing {SPS} concentration; when the sediment concentration increased from 2 g L(-1) to 10 g L(-1), the ratio decreased from 67.6\% to 38.4\% for Yellow River sediment and decreased from 50.4\% to 33.6\% for Haihe River sediment. This was because with increasing {SPS} concentration, more and more {DOC}, small particles and colloids ({\textless}0.45 mum) would enter the aqueous phase. Because high {SPS} and {DOC} concentrations exist in many rivers, their effect on the freely dissolved concentrations of {HOCs} should be considered when conducting an ecological risk assessment.},

	abstract = {Passive air samplers ({PASs}) operate in different types of environment under various wind conditions, which may affect sampling rates and thus introduce uncertainty to {PAS}-derived air concentrations. To quantify the effect of wind speed and angle on the uptake in cylindrical {PASs} using {XAD}-resin as the sampling medium, we measured the uptake kinetics of polychlorinated biphenyls ({PCBs}) in {XAD} and of water in silica-gel, both under quasi wind-still condition and with lab-generated wind blowing toward the {PASs} at various speeds and angles. Passive sampling rates ({PSRs}) of {PCBs} under laboratory generated windy conditions were approximately 3-4 times higher than under wind-still indoor conditions. The rate of water uptake by silica-gel increased with wind speed, following a logarithmic function so that {PSRs} are more strongly influenced at lower wind speed. {PSRs} of both {PCBs} and water varied little with wind angle, which is consistent with computational fluid dynamic simulations showing that different angles of wind incidence cause only minor variations of air velocities within the cylindrical sampler housing. Because modifications of the design of the cylindrical {PAS} were not successful in eliminating the wind speed dependence of {PSRs} at low wind levels, indoor and outdoor deployments require different sets of {PSRs}. The effect of wind speed and angle on the {PSRs} of the cylindrical {PAS} are much smaller than what has been reported for the double-bowl polyurethane foam {PAS}. {PSRs} of the cylindrical {XAD}-{PAS} therefore tend to vary much less between sampling sites exposed to different wind conditions.},

	abstract = {A novel alumina nanowire ({ANW}) solid-phase microextraction ({SPME}) fiber coating was prepared by a simple and rapid anodization-chemical etching method for ultra-selective determination of volatile esters and alcohols from complicated food samples. Preparation conditions for {ANW} {SPME} fiber coating including corrosion solution concentration and corrosion time were optimized in detail for better surface morphology and higher surface area based on scanning electron microscope ({SEM}). Under the optimum conditions, homogeneous alumina nanowire structure of {ANW} {SPME} fiber coating was achieved with the average thickness of 20 mum around. Compared with most of commercial {SPME} fiber coatings, {ANW} {SPME} fiber coatings achieved the higher extraction capacity and special selectivity for volatile esters and alcohols. Finally, an efficient gas sampling technique based on {ANW} {SPME} fiber coating as the core was established and successfully applied for the ultra-selective determination of trace volatile esters and alcohols from complicated banana and fermented glutinous rice samples coupled with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry ({GC}/{MS}) detection. It was interesting that 25 esters and 2 alcohols among 30 banana volatile organic compounds ({VOCs}) identified and 4 esters and 7 alcohols among 13 identified {VOCs} of fermented glutinous rice were selectively sampled by {ANW} {SPME} fiber coatings. Furthermore, new analytical methods for the determination of some typical volatile esters and alcohols from banana and fermented glutinous rice samples at specific storage or brewing phases were developed and validated. Good recoveries for banana and fermented glutinous rice samples were achieved in range of 108-115\% with relative standard deviations ({RSDs}) of 2.6-6.7\% and 80.0-91.8\% with {RSDs} of 0.3-1.3\% (n=3), respectively. This work proposed a novel and efficient gas sampling technique of {ANW} {SPME} which was quite suitable for ultra-selectively sampling trace volatile esters and alcohols from complicated food samples.},

	abstract = {Hydrophobic organic compounds ({HOCs}) like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ({PAHs}) and polychlorinated biphenyls ({PCBs}) tend to accumulate in sediment beds when they are released into aquatic environments. Due to this buildup of {HOCs} in the sediment, the highest water concentrations are often in the pore water. Passive samplers can be used in the field (i.e., in situ) to measure freely dissolved porewater concentrations if target contaminants diffusing through the sediment and into the sampler exhibit the same diffusive retardation factors as performance reference compounds ({PRCs}) that are diffusing out of the sampler and into the sediment. To test this assumption, polyethylene ({PE}) passive samplers were placed in an organic- and black- carbon-rich sediment bed in the laboratory with samplers removed every 30 days for 4 months. The concentrations of target contaminants in the {PE} at each time point, corrected using measures of the losses of {PRCs}, were in good agreement with separately measured equilibrium concentrations in a well-mixed system. Concentrations in the {PE} passive samplers, normalized by their polyethylene-water partition coefficients, were also in good agreement with directly measured porewater concentrations. Finally, {PE}-deduced porewater concentrations were compared with the traditional equilibrium partitioning models and showed that considering sorption to only organic carbon substantially overestimated porewater concentrations. However, predictions improved greatly if sorption to black carbon was also considered.},

In this study, we performed the calibration of a promising tool, the passive stir bar sorptive extraction ({SBSE}), which has previously shown good performances for semi-quantitative monitoring of pesticides in a field study. We determined the sampling rates and lag-phases of 18 moderately hydrophobic to hydrophobic agricultural pesticides (2.18{\textless}log Kow{\textless}5.11) from different chemical classes including triazines, substituted ureas, triazoles and organophosphate compounds. We also realised an elimination experiment to identify a performance reference compound ({PRC}). A flow-through calibration experiment was realised for 7 days at constant concentrations of target pesticides in tap water, under controlled temperature (20 degrees C) and flow velocity (2.5 cm s(-1)). Sampling rates were between 1.3 and 121 {mL} d(-1) with satisfactory {RSD} for most pesticides (9-47\%), and poor repeatability for 3 hydrophobic pesticides (59-83\%). Lag-phases for all target pesticides were shorter than 2 h, demonstrating the efficiency of passive {SBSE} for the integration of transient concentration peaks of these contaminants in surface waters. The role of flow velocity on pesticide uptakes was investigated and we assumed a water boundary layer-controlled mass transfer for 5 pesticides with log Kow{\textgreater}3.3. Among these pesticides, we selected fenitrothion to evaluate its elimination, along with its deuterated analogue. Results showed 82\% elimination of both compounds over the 7-day experiment and isotropic exchange for fenitrothion, making fenitrothion-d6 a promising {PRC} candidate for in situ applications.},

	abstract = {Despite recent data that suggest that the overall performance of drug-eluting stents ({DES}) is superior to that of bare-metal stents, the long-term safety and efficacy of {DES} remain controversial. The risk of late stent thrombosis associated with the use of {DES} has also motivated the development of a new and promising treatment option in recent years, namely drug-coated balloons ({DCB}). Contrary to {DES} where the drug of choice is typically sirolimus and its derivatives, {DCB} use paclitaxel since the use of sirolimus does not appear to lead to satisfactory results. Since both sirolimus and paclitaxel are highly lipophilic drugs with similar transport properties, the reason for the success of paclitaxel but not sirolimus in {DCB} remains unclear. Computational models of the transport of drugs eluted from {DES} or {DCB} within the arterial wall promise to enhance our understanding of the performance of these devices. The present study develops a computational model of the transport of the two drugs paclitaxel and sirolimus eluted from {DES} in the arterial wall. The model takes into account the multilayered structure of the arterial wall and incorporates a reversible binding model to describe drug interactions with the constituents of the arterial wall. The present results demonstrate that the transport of paclitaxel in the arterial wall is dominated by convection while the transport of sirolimus is dominated by the binding process. These marked differences suggest that drug release kinetics of {DES} should be tailored to the type of drug used.},

Results from each method are compared and contrasted in order to provide information for future investigators to use while selecting appropriate sampling methods for their research. The continuous low-level aquatic monitoring ({CLAM}) sampler (C.I.Agent(R) Storm-Water Solutions) is a submersible, low flow-rate sampler, that continuously draws water through solid-phase extraction media. {CLAM} samplers were deployed at two wastewater-dominated stream field sites in conjunction with the deployment of polar organic chemical integrative samplers ({POCIS}) and the collection of discrete (grab) water samples. All samples were analyzed for a suite of 69 {TOCs}. The {CLAM} and {POCIS} samples represent time-integrated samples that accumulate the {TOCs} present in the water over the deployment period (19-23 h for {CLAM} and 29 days for {POCIS}); the discrete samples represent only the {TOCs} present in the water at the time and place of sampling. Non-metric multi-dimensional scaling and cluster analysis were used to examine patterns in both {TOC} detections and relative concentrations between the three sampling methods. A greater number of {TOCs} were detected in the {CLAM} samples than in corresponding discrete and {POCIS} samples, but {TOC} concentrations in the {CLAM} samples were significantly lower than in the discrete and (or) {POCIS} samples. Thirteen {TOCs} of varying polarity were detected by all of the three methods. {TOC} detections and concentrations obtained by the three sampling methods, however, are dependent on multiple factors. This study found that stream discharge, constituent loading, and compound type all affected {TOC} concentrations detected by each method. In addition, {TOC} detections and concentrations were affected by the reporting limits, bias, recovery, and performance of each method.},

	abstract = {The main aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a rhamnolipid biosurfactant on biodegradation of (14)C-labeled phenanthrene and pyrene under desorption-limiting conditions. The rhamnolipid caused a significant solubilization and enhanced biodegradation of {PAHs} sorbed to soils. The enhancement was, however, negatively influenced by experimental conditions that caused an enrichment of slow desorption fractions. These conditions included aging, a higher organic matter content in soil, and previous extraction with Tenax to remove the labile-desorbing chemical. The decline in bioavailability caused by aging on sorbed (14)C-pyrene was partially reversed by rhamnolipids, which enhanced mineralization of the aged compound, although not so efficiently like with the unaged chemical. This loss in biosurfactant efficiency in promoting biodegradation can be explained by intra-aggregate diffusion of the pollutant during aging. We suggest that rhamnolipid can enhance biodegradation of soil-sorbed {PAHs} by micellar solubilization, which increase the cell exposure to the chemicals in the aqueous phase, and partitioning into soil organic matter, thus enhancing the kinetics of slow desorption. Our study show that rhamnolipid can constitute a valid alternative to chemical surfactants in promoting the biodegradation of slow desorption {PAHs}, which constitutes a major bottleneck in bioremediation.},

For the first time, K({DOC}) values of 18 {PAHs} were calculated using data from {SPME}-{GC}-{MS} and fluorescence quenching; they were in agreement with the results of previous studies. Competition between {PAHs}, deuterated {PAHs} and {DOM} was demonstrated, pointing out the non-linearity of {PAH}-{DOM} interactions and the stronger interactions of light molecular weight {PAHs} (higher K({DOC}) values) in absence of high molecular weight {PAHs}.},

A second aim is to assess the efficiency of performance reference compounds ({PRCs}) to correct for the impact of water velocity. {SR} and {LDPE} samplers were spiked with 11 or 12 {PRCs} and exposed for 6 weeks to four different velocities (in the range of 1.6 to 37.7 cm s(-1)) in river-like flow conditions using a channel system supplied with river water. A relationship between velocity and the uptake was found for each {iPCB} and enables to determine expected changes in the uptake due to velocity variations. For both samplers, velocity increases from 2 to 10 cm s(-1), 30 cm s(-1) (interpolated data) and 100 cm s(-1) (extrapolated data) lead to increases of the uptake which do not exceed a factor of 2, 3 and 4.5, respectively. Results also showed that the influence of velocity decreased with increasing the octanol-water coefficient partition (log K(ow)) of {iPCBs} when {SR} is used whereas the opposite effect was observed for {LDPE}. Time-weighted average ({TWA}) concentrations of {iPCBs} in water were calculated from {iPCB} uptake and {PRC} release. These calculations were performed using either a single {PRC} or all the {PRCs}. The efficiency of {PRCs} to correct the impact of velocity was assessed by comparing the {TWA} concentrations obtained at the four tested velocities. For {SR}, a good agreement was found among the four {TWA} concentrations with both methods (average {RSD}{\textless}10\%). Also for {LDPE}, {PRCs} offered a good correction of the impact of water velocity (average {RSD} of about 10 to 20\%). These results contribute to the process of acceptance of passive sampling in routine regulatory monitoring programs.},

Weber's intraparticle diffusion was also used to gain insight into the mechanisms and rate controlling steps, which the results suggested that intraparticle diffusion of As species onto {IBA} is the main rate-controlling step. Different concentrations of {HA} mediated the redox transformation of As species, with a higher oxidation ability than reduction. The overall results indicated the significant effect of organic matter on the adsorption kinetics and redox transformation of As species, and consequently, the fate, transport and mobility of As in different environmentally relevant conditions.},

	abstract = {Cell signalling processes involve receptor trafficking through highly connected networks of interacting components. The binding of surface receptors to their specific ligands is a key factor for the control and triggering of signalling pathways. But the binding process still presents many enigmas and, by analogy with surface catalytic reactions, two different mechanisms can be conceived: the first mechanism is related to the Eley-Rideal ({ER}) mechanism, i.e. the bulk-dissolved ligand interacts directly by pure three-dimensional (3D) diffusion with the specific surface receptor; the second mechanism is similar to the Langmuir-Hinshelwood ({LH}) process, i.e. 3D diffusion of the ligand to the cell surface followed by reversible ligand adsorption and subsequent two-dimensional (2D) surface diffusion to the receptor. A situation where both mechanisms simultaneously contribute to the signalling process could also occur. The aim of this paper is to perform a computational study of the behavior of the signalling response when these different mechanisms for ligand-receptor interactions are integrated into a model for signal transduction and ligand transport. To this end, partial differential equations have been used to develop spatio-temporal models that show trafficking dynamics of ligands, cell surface components, and intracellular signalling molecules through the different domains of the system. The mathematical modeling developed for these mechanisms has been applied to the study of two situations frequently found in cell systems: (a) dependence of the signal response on cell density; and (b) enhancement of the signalling response in a synaptic environment.},

This study investigated whether motile microorganisms can act as microbial carriers that enhance mass transfer of {HOCs} through diffusive boundary layers. A new experimental system was developed that allows (1) generation of concentration gradients of {HOCs} under the microscope, (2) exposure and direct observation of microorganisms in such gradients, and (3) quantification of {HOC} mass transfer. Silicone O-rings were integrated into a Dunn chemotaxis chamber to serve as sink and source for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ({PAHs}). This resulted in stable concentration gradients in water ({\textgreater}24 h). Adding the model organism Tetrahymena pyriformis to the experimental system enhanced {PAH} mass transfer up to hundred-fold (benzo[a]pyrene). Increasing mass transfer enhancement with hydrophobicity indicated {PAH} co-transport with the motile organisms. Fluorescence microscopy confirmed such transport. The effective diffusivity of T. pyriformis, determined by video imaging microscopy, was found to exceed molecular diffusivities of the {PAHs} up to four-fold. Cell-bound {PAH} fractions were determined to range from 28\% (naphthalene) to 92\% (pyrene). Motile microorganisms can therefore function as effective carriers for {HOCs} under diffusive conditions and might significantly enhance mobility and availability of {HOCs}.},

	abstract = {Breast-conserving surgery ({BCS}) is increasingly employed for the treatment of early stage breast cancer. One of the key challenges in {BCS} is to ensure complete removal of the tumour while conserving as much healthy tissue as possible. In this study we have investigated the potential of Raman micro-spectroscopy ({RMS}) for automated intra-operative evaluation of tumour excision. First, a multivariate classification model based on Raman spectra of normal and malignant breast tissue samples was built and achieved diagnosis of mammary ductal carcinoma ({DC}) with 95.6\% sensitivity and 96.2\% specificity (5-fold cross-validation). The tumour regions were discriminated from the healthy tissue structures based on increased concentration of nucleic acids and reduced concentration of collagen and fat. The multivariate classification model was then applied to sections from fresh tissue of new patients to produce diagnosis images for {DC}. The diagnosis images obtained by raster scanning {RMS} were in agreement with the conventional histopathology diagnosis but were limited to long data acquisition times (typically 10,000 spectra mm(-2), which is equivalent to {\textasciitilde}5 h mm(-2)). Selective-sampling based on integrated auto-fluorescence imaging and Raman spectroscopy was used to reduce the number of Raman spectra to {\textasciitilde}20 spectra mm(-2), which is equivalent to an acquisition time of {\textasciitilde}15 min for 5 x 5 mm(2) tissue samples. This study suggests that selective-sampling Raman microscopy has the potential to provide a rapid and objective intra-operative method to detect mammary carcinoma in tissue and assess resection margins.},

	abstract = {{INTRODUCTION}: In patients undergoing cardiac surgery with heart-lung machine support, adequate anticoagulation to mitigate blood clotting caused by the artificial surfaces of the extracorporeal circulation ({ECC}) system is essential. These patients routinely receive heparin, whose effectiveness is monitored by measurements of the activated clotting time ({ACT}). However, {ACT} values only poorly correlate with the actual hemostatic status. The aim of our study was to evaluate the detection of free thrombin in heparinized human blood as a monitor of anticoagulation during {ECC}. {MATERIALS} {AND} {METHODS}: Human whole blood was anticoagulated with different concentrations of heparin (0.75, 1, 2 or 3 {IU}/ml) and circulated in the Chandler-loop model for up to 240 min at 37 degrees C. Next to {ACT}, {ECC}-mediated changes in free active thrombin, prothrombin fragment 1+2 (F1+2) and thrombin-antithrombin-{III} ({TAT}) levels were measured before and during circulation. Platelet activation and cell count parameters were further investigated. {RESULTS}: Our study shows that detection of {ECC}-mediated changes in free thrombin is possible in blood anticoagulated with 0.75 or 1 {IU}/ml heparin, whereas no thrombin was detectable at higher heparin concentrations. Thrombin generation during 240 min of {ECC} is comparable to F 1+2 and {TAT} plasma levels during {ECC}. {CONCLUSIONS}: Thrombin is the key enzyme in the coagulation cascade and hence represents a promising marker for monitoring the coagulation status of patients. Although detection of free thrombin was not feasible at high heparin concentrations, the employed test represents an additional test to current laboratory methods investigating blood coagulation at low heparin concentrations.},

	abstract = {Single-phase passive samplers are gaining acceptance as a method to measure hydrophobic organic contaminant ({HOC}) concentration in water. Although the relationship between the {HOC} concentration in water and passive sampler is linear at equilibrium, mass transfer models are needed for nonequilibrium conditions. We report measurements of organochlorine pesticide diffusion and partition coefficients with respect to polyethylene ({PE}), and present a Fickian approach to modeling {HOC} uptake by {PE} in aqueous systems. The model is an analytic solution to Fick's second law applied through an aqueous diffusive boundary layer and a polyethylene layer. Comparisons of the model with existing methods indicate agreement at appropriate boundary conditions. Laboratory release experiments on the organochlorine pesticides {DDT}, {DDE}, {DDD}, and chlordane in well-mixed slurries support the model's applicability to aqueous systems. In general, the advantage of the model is its application in the cases of well-agitated systems, low values of polyethylene-water partioning coefficients, thick polyethylene relative to the boundary layer thickness, and/or short exposure times. Another significant advantage is the ability to estimate, or at least bound, the needed exposure time to reach a desired {CPE} without empirical model inputs. A further finding of this work is that polyethylene diffusivity does not vary by transport direction through the sampler thickness.},

	abstract = {Conventional anticancer therapies, such as chemo- and/or radio-therapy are often unable to completely eradicate cancers due to abnormal tumor microenvironment, as well as increased drug/radiation resistance. More effective therapeutic strategies for overcoming these obstacles are urgently in demand. Aptamers, as chemical antibodies that bind to targets with high affinity and specificity, are a promising new and novel agent for both cancer diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Aptamer-based cancer cell targeting facilitates the development of active targeting in which aptamer-mediated drug delivery could provide promising anticancer outcomes. This review is to update the current progress of aptamer-based cancer diagnosis and aptamer-mediated active targeting for cancer therapy in vivo, exploring the potential of this novel form of targeted cancer therapy.},

	abstract = {This study establishes a novel calibration method for pre-equilibrium hollow-fiber liquid-phase microextraction ({PE}-{HF}-{LPME}), where the time constant of the extraction of the analyte from sample matrix to the extraction phase (organic solvent) is obtained from a simple concentration curve. Comparing to the traditional kinetic calibration method, where the time constant was obtained from the extraction time profile, the new calibration approach shows improved accuracy and precision. More importantly, deuterated standards are not required in the new method, thus significantly improving its cost-effectiveness and extending its applicability to a wide range of analytes lack of deuterated analogs serving as internal standards. In addition, mass spectrometry is not necessary for the quantification of analytes with the new calibration method, which may further extend the applicability of {PE}-{HF}-{LPME} to some laboratories without mass spectrometers. This study has been substantiated with both theoretical and experimental evidences. Further, the feasibility of the method for real biological samples was demonstrated by measuring the free concentration of flunitrazepam in urine and plasma samples and its drug-protein binding ratio in plasma. The results showed that the method had a short analysis time and was easily implemented with high accuracy and good reproducibility.},
