One-step-immunoassay of procalcitonin enables rapid and accurate diagnosis of bacterial infection.

RSC advances
Procalcitonin (PCT) ( a precursor of calcitonin) attracts much attention as a reliable biomarker of bacterial infections because its concentration increases rapidly in the blood when bacterial infections occur in the body. Sepsis may occur due to ind...

Validated spectral manipulations for determination of an anti-neoplastic drug and its related impurities including its hazardous degradation product.

RSC advances
Innovative and specific double dual wavelength, dual ratio subtraction spectrophotometric methods were carried out along with a successive ratio subtraction spectrophotometric method for determination of dacarbazine and its related impurities includi...

Study on extraction methods of polysaccharides from a processed product of Debx.

RSC advances
Traditional Chinese medicine PaoTianXiong (PTX) is a processed product of Debx. with polysaccharide as the main ingredient. The properties of PTX polysaccharide (PTXP) may be affected by different extraction methods. To develop and utilize PTXP bett...

Profiling single-cell level phagocytic activity distribution with blood lactate levels.

RSC advances
The ability to kill infecting microbes is an essential facet of our immune response to an infection. However, phagocytic ability is often overlooked as a part of immunological profile in infected patients' diagnosis, as the understanding of phagocyti...

Fabrication and application of a MIL-68(In)-NH incorporated high internal phase emulsion polymeric monolith as a solid phase extraction adsorbent in triazine herbicide residue analysis.

RSC advances
In this work, a metal-organic framework MIL-68(In)-NH incorporated high internal phase emulsion polymeric monolith (MIL-68(In)-NH/polyHIPE) was prepared and applied as a solid phase extraction adsorbent for the extraction and detection of trace triaz...

Methane production from wheat straw pretreated with CaO/cellulase.

RSC advances
There are various lignocellulosic biomass pretreatments that act as attractive strategies to improve anaerobic digestion for methane (CH) generation. This study proposes an effective technique to obtain more CH the hydrothermal coupled calcium perox...

Au-Ag core-shell composite nanoparticles as a selective and sensitive plasmonic chemical probe for l-cysteine detection in (lentils).

RSC advances
The present work reported is a simple and selective method for the colorimetrical detection of l-cysteine in (or lentils) using Au-Ag core-shell (Au core Ag shell) composite nanoparticles as a chemical probe. The phenomenon is based on the color cha...

Improved liquid-liquid extraction by modified magnetic nanoparticles for the detection of eight drugs in human blood by HPLC-MS.

RSC advances
Magnetic nanoparticles modified with porous titanium dioxide were used as clean-up nanospheres for the detection of eight drug poisons in human blood by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The magnetic clean-up nanospheres (FeO@...

Fungal melanin as a biocompatible broad-spectrum sunscreen with high antioxidant activity.

RSC advances
Melanin is considered a bio-inspired dermo-cosmetic component due to its high UV absorption and antioxidant activity. Among various melanin sources, fungal melanin is a promising candidate for sunscreen because of its sustainability and scalability; ...

Roles of solution concentration and shear rate in the shear-induced crystallization of P3HT.

RSC advances
Microfluidic shear can induce the formation of flow-induced precursors (FIPs) of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) in toluene. The shear temperature, solution concentration and shear rate determine the FIP content. The FIP is metastable. Upon fixing the ...
