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...
Ferritin is an iron-storage protein that naturally self-assembles into a hollow spherical particle consisting of 24 identical subunits, and it serves a central role in iron metabolism. Ferritin's favorable drug-loading capacity, biocompatibility, int...
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 ...
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has demonstrated remarkable potential for molecular detection due to its specificity. However, detecting fluorescent vitamin B molecules remains challenging due to fluorescence interference and weak Raman cros...
Label-free optical imaging of the morphology of single nanoparticles under native conditions remains a challenging task despite its importance in the synthesis, properties, and applications of nanomaterials. Here, we developed an angular scanning dar...
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 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...
Metal nanoparticles (MNPs) offer great potential to enable precision and sustainable agriculture. However, a comprehensive understanding of the interactions between multiple MNPs and soil properties, including impacts on overall soil health, remains ...
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 (...
