Saccades are ballistic eye movements that rapidly shift gaze from one location of visual space to another. Detecting saccades in eye movement recordings is important not only for studying the neural mechanisms underlying sensory, motor, and cognitive...
Fluorescent probe-based analytical methods for biological species have gained increasing attention for their powerful detection and imaging capabilities. However, it is still occasionally problematic for accurate analyses due to the influence of the ...
Highly efficient isolation and recovery of viable circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from the blood of patients is an important precondition to address the current dilemma of insufficient CTC studies, and can promote the development of individualized ant...

The isolated type of orofacial cleft, termed non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P), is the second most common birth defect in China, with Asians having the highest incidence in the world. NSCL/P involves multiple genes and com...
Swallowing is a complex physiological function that can be studied through medical imagery techniques such as videofluoroscopy (VFS), dynamic magnetic resonance imagery (MRI) and fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). VFS is the gold ...
Colorimetric detection of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and its inhibitor organophosphates (OPs) is attractive for its convenience, but the addition of exogenous catalyst to produce a chromogenic agent may result in complexity and interference. Herein,...
Amphotericin B (AmB) is still, despite its severe nephrotoxicity, the first-line agent in the management of serious systemic fungal infections. A sensitive and reliable method is therefore required to control AmB concentration in body fluids of a pat...
This study evaluated the in vitro development and maturation of ovine oocytes from secondary follicles cultured in serum-free medium containing fixed or sequential concentrations of recombinant human FSH (rhFSH). Follicles were cultured in α-MEM alon...
Continuum robots offer compliant and dexterous operations, which are suitable to be used in unstructured environments. Tendon-driven catheters, owing to their continuum structure, are applied in minimal invasive surgeries such as intracardiac interve...
