Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein (IGFBP)-6 decreases cancer cell proliferation and survival by inhibiting the effects of IGF-II. More recently, IGFBP-6...
A picogram-sensitive optical microfluidic biosensor using an integrated polycarbazole photodiode is developed. The photodetector is mainly composed of the blend hetero...
Diblock copolymer vesicles are tagged with pH-responsive Nile Blue-based labels and used as a new type of pH-responsive colorimetric/fluorescent biosensor for far-red ...
The enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is an important part of cholinergic nervous system, where it stops neurotransmission by hydrolysis of the neurotransmitter acety...
An amperometric biosensor for the determination of L-lysine based on L-lysine-α-oxidase immobilized by co-crosslinking on a platinum electrode previously modified by a...
We describe our assembly and the analytical performance of a glucose biosensor consisting of an array of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) that perpendicularly fall on a 7-μm-di...
Using self-assembly of block copolymer micelle loaded metal precursors, combined with a seeding growth route, we have developed a novel approach to create ordered meta...
Bacteriophages are nano-sized virion particles infecting bacteria. In this study, it is shown that metal binding properties of filamentous fd-bacteriophages can be enh...
We developed a fast and simple method to functionalize a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) with liposomes composed of phosphatidylcholine lipid and the N-hydroxysuccin...
A bienzymatic biosensor employing diamine oxidase (DOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) for the detection of histamine in fish samples has been developed and optimize...
The noise-suppression techniques of label-free optical ring resonator sensors are crucial to improve their practical sensing capabilities for biochemical analysis and ...
Nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNTs) substantially lower the overpotential necessary for dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidation compared to nond...
A 3D rolled-up structure made of a SiO2 layer and a fishbone-like magnetic thin film was proposed here as a biosensor. The magnetoresistance (MR) measurement results o...
The canonical model of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signalling states that it is solely initiated at the cell surface. In recent years, a handful of evidence has ...
We report here the generation and pharmacological characterization of two novel PDE 4B1 and PDE 4D3 reporter cell lines. Intracellular cAMP levels are monitored in the...
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is associated with an outbreak of more than 90 cases of severe pneumonia with high mortality (greater than 50%)...
The Raf family of protein kinases are key signaling intermediates, acting as a central link between the membrane-bound Ras GTPases and the downstream kinases MEK and E...
We developed a novel artificial neural network (ANN) system able to detect and classify pesticide residues. The novel ANN is coupled, in a customized way, to a cellula...
Artery narrowing in hypertension can only result from structural remodelling of the artery, or increased smooth muscle contraction. The latter may occur with, or witho...
