Computer-aided diagnosis offers a promising solution to reduce variation in colonoscopy performance. Pooled miss rates for polyps are as high as 22%, and associated interval colorectal cancers after colonoscopy are of concern. Optical biopsy, whereby...
Herein, molecular structure regulation and enzyme cascade signals amplification (MRECAmp) strategy was proposed to construct a novel upconversion ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetric dual-readout assay platform for highly sensitive and selective...
Photodiagnosis and photodynamic therapy

UNLABELLED: Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a promising alternative for the treatment of infectious bone lesions in the oral cavity. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial effectiveness of PDT using blue LED associated with curcu...
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...
In the present work, a novel metal-organic framework (MOF) fluorescent probe was prepared by post-synthetic modification of MIL-53-NH(Al) with carboxylatocalix[4]arene (CC[4]A). The introduced CC[4]A could not only enhance the fluorescence performanc...
The detection of uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) activity is pivotal for its biochemical studies and the development of drugs for UDG-related diseases. Here, we explored an integrated DNA structure switch for high sensitive detection of UDG activity. Th...
It is important to detect pesticides residues due to the concern over food safety. In this work, the burning ash of waste paper was used as carbon source to synthesize carbon dots (C-dots). The fluorescence of obtained C-dots could been turn off by F...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) a leading cause of death by cancer, and screening programs for its early identification are at the heart of the increasing survival rates. To motivate population participation, non-invasive, accurate, scalable and cost-effecti...
Based on investigating the relative fluorescence intensity of vancomycin hydrochloride (VCM) in methanol, a simple, highly sensitive, time-saving and specific spectrofluorimetric method was developed and validated. VCM fluorescence was measured at 33...
Sensitive and reliable detection of DNA methyltransferase (MTase) is of great significance for both early tumor diagnosis and therapy. In this study, a simple, label-free and sensitive DNA MTase-sensing method was developed on the basis of a nicking ...
