Dermatological issues are a widespread problem in humans that are often
overlooked. In our present study, we have isolated lipids from de-identified epidermal

Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS)....
Tooth decay in the form of dental caries and cavities is estimated to be among the most common health conditions globally, with treatment of these oral diseases resulting in a massive, world-wide economic burden.
