The development of the effective diagnostic method for the determination of cancer biomarkers is one of the most promising strategies for early clinical diagnosis of cancer. Here, based on the preparation of heterogeneous cuprous oxide coated silver ...
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are a common antimicrobial additive for a variety of applications, including wound care. However, AgNPs often undergo dissolution resulting in release of silver ions, with subsequent toxicity to mammalian cells. The corne...
This study reports synthesis of Garcinia mangostana fruit pericarp (unwanted waste material) and α-mangostin mediated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). These AgNPs were efficiently produced using 1:10 (extract and salt) ratio under stirring and heating, ...
The clinical needs of rapidly screening liver cancer in large populations have asked for a facile and low-cost point-of-care testing (POCT) method. We present a nanoplasmonics biosensing chip (NBC) that would empower antibody-free detection with simp...
Liquid-crystal elastomer (LCE)-based soft robots and devices via an electrothermal effect under a low driving voltage have attracted a great deal of attention for their ability on generating larger stress, reversible deformation, and versatile actuat...
Establishing standardized methods for a consistent analysis of spectral data remains a largely underexplored aspect in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), particularly applied to biological and biomedical research. Here we propose an effectiv...
A neuromorphic network composed of silver nanowires coated with TiO is found to show certain parallels with neural networks in nature such as biological brains. Owing to the memristive properties emerging at nanowire-to-nanowire contacts, where the A...
To improve performance of thermopneumatic soft actuators, which have recently been developed for various industrial applications, we embedded different nanoscale materials into their elastomer bodies. This yields a significant enhancement in the actu...
In this paper, a portable real-time sensing device was built for Concanavalin A (Con A) and glucose detection using a smartphone. The ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET) functioning at a low working point was selected as a small-size, low-p...
The fast identification and quantification of illicit drugs in biofluids are of great significance in clinical detection. However, existing drug detection strategies cannot fully meet clinical needs, and the on-site identification and quantification ...
