Innovative methods to detect and kill pathogenic bacteria have a pivotal role in the eradication of infectious diseases and the prevention of the growth of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The combination of fluorescent carbon dots (FCDs) with silver n...
A simple and homogeneous histone assay is developed based on histone-induced DNA compressing coupled with cationic conjugated polymer (CCP)-mediated fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). In this strategy, the CCP serves as the FRET donor and...
In the present work, colloidal cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoceria) and graphene quantum dots (GQDs) were firstly synthesized by sol-gel method and pyrolysis respectively, which all have a uniform nano-size and significant fluorescence emission. Du...
A novel strategy for ovotransferrin (OVT) detection by tracing the "on-off-on" fluorescence signals of quantum dots (QDs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) utilizing fluorescence measurements were established in this article. The immune interaction betw...
Single-molecule experiments and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are indispensable tools for investigating protein conformational dynamics. The former provide data, such as donor-acceptor distances, whereas the latter give atomistic information, ...
For more than a century, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining has been the de facto standard for histological studies. Consequently, the legacy of histological knowledge is largely based on H&E staining. Due to the recent advent of multi-photon excit...

Formation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) dimers and higher order oligomers represents a key mechanism in pleiotropic signaling, yet how individual protomers function within oligomers remains poorly understood. For the Class A/rhodopsin subfam...
Catecholamine neurotransmitters, specifically, dopamine (DA), epinephrine (EP), and norepinephrine (NE), are known as substantial indicators of various neurological diseases. Developing rapid detection methods capable of simultaneously screening thei...
Single-molecule Förster Resonance energy transfer (smFRET) is an adaptable method for studying the structure and dynamics of biomolecules. The development of high throughput methodologies and the growth of commercial instrumentation have outpaced the...
