Auranofin, an FDA-approved antirheumatic gold drug, has gained ongoing interest in clinical studies for treating advanced or recurrent tumors. However, gold ion's dynamic thiol exchange nature strongly attenuates its bioactivity due to the fast forma...
Point-of-care (POC) devices have grown in popularity due to their ease of use, low cost, and speedy on-site diagnostic capabilities. This study focuses on ketamine detection by colorimetric and lateral flow assays (LFA), with aptamer-based LFA emergi...
A non-invasive, enzyme-based colorimetric biosensor was developed for urea detection in saliva, utilizing a growth-based method with Au@Ag core-shell nanostructures, including CTAB-coated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and CTAB-coated gold nanorods with ...
Early detection of thyroid cancer improves patient survival rate from 51.9% to 99.9%. Fine needle aspiration cytology is the primary method for diagnosing thyroid cancer; however, this method is associated with limitations, including diagnostic uncer...

The Amazon is recognized not only for its vast biodiversity and territorial extent but also for the significant mineral riches it harbors. This potential has intensified small-scale illegal and informal gold mining, a practice often employed without ...
The screening and monitoring of microRNAs as cancer molecular biomarkers is clinically significant, but traditional methods lack sufficient sensitivity, accuracy, and convenience. The CRISPR-colorimetric lateral flow assay (CLFA) integration offers a...
CONTEXT: Targeted drug delivery systems leveraging gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) demand precise atomic-level design to overcome current limitations in drug-loading efficiency and controlled release. Unlike previous focused reviews, this systematic analy...
Recent research advances have resulted in an experimental benchtop X-ray fluorescence computed tomography (XFCT) system that likely meets the imaging dose/scan time constraints for benchtop XFCT imaging of live mice injected with gold nanoparticles (...
Accurate prediction of gold prices is crucial for investment decision-making and national risk management. The time series data of gold prices exhibits random fluctuations, non-linear characteristics, and high volatility, making prediction extremely ...
Bacterial detection and classification are critical challenges in healthcare, environmental monitoring, and food safety, demanding selective and efficient methods. This study presents a novel, label-free approach for E. coli detection using ultrathin...
