Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a new medical, non-destructive, imaging method for visualizing the spatial distribution of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. In MPI, spatial resolution is an important indicator of efficiency; traditional ...
Therapeutic drug delivery microrobots capable of accurate targeting using an electromagnetic actuation (EMA) system are being developed. However, these drug delivery microrobots include a large number of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) for accurate EMA...
Small intestine-targeted drug delivery by oral administration has aroused the growing interest of researchers. In this work, the child-parent microrobot (CPM) as a vehicle protects the child microrobots (CMs) under a gastric acid environment and rele...
Soft-robotic devices such as polymeric microgrippers offer the possibility for pick and place of fragile biological cargo in hard-to-reach conduits with potential applications in drug delivery, minimally invasive surgery, and biomedical engineering. ...
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...
Ensuring food safety requires a rapid and reliable method for detecting food-borne pathogens. Mass spectrometry has been demonstrated as a powerful tool to classify pure bacterial species. However, matrix interference from food backgrounds may lead t...
The authors describe a fluorometric aptamer based assay for detecting β-lactoglobulin by using carbon dots (C-dots) as a signal indicator. The aptamer was immoblized on magnetite (FeO) nanoparticles (MNPs), and the C-dots served as a label for the co...
The authors describe the preparation of FeO nanoparticles coated with poly(p-phenylenediamine-co-thiophene). The resulting nanoparticles (NPs) are shown to be viable sorbents for use in magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) of organophosphorus pesti...
Highly selective and sensitive detection methods are very important for the early diagnosis of prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Here, we present a novel peptide/FeO@SiO-Au nanocomposite-based fluorescence biosensor for highly selective and sensitive ...
A novel dual-site recognition protocol was developed for chemiluminescent (CL) detection of Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) based on a designed antibiotic-affinity strategy. Teicoplanin, a broad-spectrum antibiotic against Gram-positive bacteria, wa...
