Agricultural produces: Synopsis of employed quality control methods for the authentication of foods and application of chemometrics for the classification of foods according to their variety or geographical origin
(2001)A review of quality control methods and applications of multivariate statistical techniques on the authentication and classification of agricultural products is presented. The products reported within the frame of this ... -
Discrimination of exudative pleural effusions based on pleural adenosine deaminase (Ada)-c-reactive protein (crp) levels, and their combination: An observational prospective study
(2021)(1) Background: Malignant (MPE), parapneumonic (PPE) and tuberculous (TPE) pleural effusions constitute common causes of pleurisy. Discriminating among them is usually challenging. C-reactive protein (CRP) and adenosine ... -
Diversity of vanA-type vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium isolated from broilers, poultry slaughterers and hospitalized humans in Greece
(2012)This study investigated the prevalence of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) in the broiler production environment after the avoparcin ban and their epidemiological relationship with human clinical VRE from the same ... -
Does centrifugation matter? Centrifugal force and spinning time alter the plasma metabolome
(2016)Background: Centrifugation is an indispensable procedure for plasma sample preparation, but applied conditions can vary between labs. Aim: Determine whether routinely used plasma centrifugation protocols (1500×g 10 min; ... -
An electroglottographical analysis-based discriminant function model differentiating multiple sclerosis patients from healthy controls
(2018)Dysarthrophonia is a predominant symptom in many neurological diseases, affecting the quality of life of the patients. In this study, we produced a discriminant function equation that can differentiate MS patients from ... -
External Validation of the PREMISE Score in the Athens Stroke Registry
(2019)Background: A simple score was proposed recently for Predicting Early Mortality from Ischemic Stroke (PREMISE) derived from the Austrian Stroke Unit Registry. This score could be useful in clinical practice and research. ... -
Identifying newly spawned female sardines by means of common fisheries data
(2004)In the present study we provide an alternative to histology means of discerning newly spawned female sardines, i.e., females with intact postovulatory follicles, by means of common fisheries data like sample sex ratio, ... -
Implementation of quality control methods in conjunction with chemometrics toward authentication of dairy products
(2005)The implementation of novel and accurate quality and safety control methods in conjunction with chemometrics in various fields of science, particularly in food science, showed that this combination stands for a very powerful ... -
The lipid profile of three Malassezia species assessed by Raman spectroscopy and discriminant analysis
(2019)Malassezia yeasts constitute the major eukaryotic cutaneous flora of homoeothermic vertebrates. These lipophilic yeasts are able to cause, trigger, or aggravate common skin diseases under favorable conditions. Species ... -
Novel candidate genes of the PARK7 interactome as mediators of apoptosis and acetylation in multiple sclerosis: An in silico analysis
(2018)Background currently only 4 studies have explored the potential role of PARK7's dysregulation in MS pathophysiology Currently, no study has evaluated the potential role of the PARK7 interactome in MS. Objective The aim of ... -
Physicochemical and sensory analysis of dry bean landraces in conjunction with multivariate analysis: an exploratory approach
(2007)Five landraces of Greek common dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), were analysed for thirteen physico-chemical and eighteen sensory variables. Brightness, acceptance, odour and hardness were the most important sensory variables ... -
Potato biodiversity: A linear discriminant analysis on the nutritional and physicochemical composition of fifty genotypes
(2021)Fifty potato genotypes from twenty-four different countries of origin, four different flesh colours (yellow, purple, red and marble) and different cultivation types (Andean accessions, landraces, breeder lines and cultivated ... -
Statistical tree classification of aphids based on morphological characteristics
(1999)Individual aphids were classified to their clones and separated to their host groups using a novel non-parametric classification tree method. The classification of the individuals was based on morphometric variables measured ... -
An Updated Review of Meat Authenticity Methods and Applications
(2016)Adulteration of foods is a serious economic problem concerning most foodstuffs, and in particular meat products. Since high-priced meat demand premium prices, producers of meat-based products might be tempted to blend these ... -
Urinary Metabolomics From a Dose-Fractionated Polymyxin B Rat Model of Acute Kidney Injury
(2022)Background: Polymyxin B treatment is limited by kidney injury. This study sought to identify Polymyxin B-related urinary metabolomic profile modifications for early detection of polymyxin-associated nephrotoxicity. Methods: ... -
The use of cardiopulmonary exercise testing in identifying the presence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in patients with compatible symptomatology
(2019)The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) and the presence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in order to provide an innovative tool to identify ...
