11. Recovery study of gold nanoparticle markers from lateral flow immunoassaysTilen Švarc, Peter Majerič, Darja Feizpour, Žiga Jelen, Matej Zadravec, Timi Gomboc, Rebeka Rudolf, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Lateral flow immunoassays (LFIAs) are a simple diagnostic device used to detect targeted analytes. Wasted and unused rapid antigen lateral flow immunoassays represent mass waste that needs to be broken down and recycled into new material components. The aim of this study was to recover gold nanoparticles that are used as markers in lateral flow immunoassays. For this purpose, a dissolution process with aqua regia was utilised, where gold nanoparticles were released from the lateral flow immunoassay conjugate pads. The obtained solution was then concentrated further with gold chloride salt (HAuCl4) so that it could be used for the synthesis of new gold nanoparticles in the process of ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP). Various characterisation methods including scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and optical emission spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma were used during this study. The results of this study showed that the recovery of gold nanoparticles from lateral flow immunoassays is possible, and the newly synthesised gold nanoparticles represent the possibility for incorporation into new products.

14. Prognostic value of staging laparotomy in supradiaphragmatic clinical stage I and II Hodgkin's diseaseMarjeta Vovk, Tatjana Šumi-Križnik, Marija Jenko-Fidler, Gabrijela Petrič-Grabnar, Marinka Kremžar, Janez Novak, Mojca Senčar, Branko Zakotnik, Alenka Vodnik-Cerar, Branimir Jakšić, 1996, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: In the period 1974-1989, 219 patients with supradiaphragmatic clinical stage I and II Hodgkin's disease were treated at the Institute of Oncology in Ljubljana; of these 95 (43%) patients underwent staging laparotomy. Of laparotomized patients, those with pathological stage III-IV, and of non-laparotomized, those with unfavorable prognostic factors (B-symptoms, bulky mediastinum) received chemotherapy: the remaining patients were treated by irradiation. No statistically significant difference in the survival and disease-free survival between laparotomized and nonlaparotomized patients could be found.

18. Tribocorrosive study of new and in vivo exposed nickel titanium and stainless steel orthodontic archwiresTadeja Kosec, Petra Močnik, Uroš Mezeg, Andraž Legat, Maja Ovsenik, Monika Jenko, John T. Grant, Jasmina Primožič, 2020, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: The surface, corrosion and wear properties of new and in vivo exposed nickel titanium (NiTi) and stainless steel (SS) archwires used in orthodontic treatment were investigated. Electrochemical and tribo-electrochemical tests in artificial saliva were performed in order to define corrosion properties and to estimate wear rate of new and in vivo exposed NiTi and SS archwires. The surface chemical analysis of the passive film on the NiTi and SS archwires before and after tribocorrosion tests was performed by Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES). In vivo exposed NiTi and SS archwires had better electrochemical properties than new archwires due to the protective nature of oral deposits. Total wear and coefficients of friction were higher among in vivo exposed archwires and higher in NiTi archwires in comparison to SS archwires. The estimated thickness of the TiO2 passive film on as-received NiTi is 8 nm, while the passive Cr2O3 film on as-received SS is just 1–2 nm. On in vivo exposed NiTi archwire, a 60–80 nm thick organic film/dental plaque was observed, and on SS, it was thinner, at about 60 nm. This research shows the importance of combining AES with electrochemical testing, to characterize tribocorrosive properties of NiTi and SS orthodontic archwires.
