Neonatal jaundice is a common and severe disease in premature infants with Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) deficiency. The World Health Organization (WHO) h...
A tapered single-mode coreless single-mode (SCS) structure with high sensitivity for sensing refractive index is described. In order to achieve high specificity of opt...
Pomegranate-like multicore WO2/W nanocrystals wrapped with layers of multiporous carbon were fabricated via carbonization of a copper(II)-organic framework host and a ...
This review (with 187 refs.) summarizes the progress that has been made in the design of lateral flow biosensors (LFBs) based on the use of micro- and nano-materials. ...
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is a monogenic hereditary blood disorder caused by a single point mutation (βS) in the β globin gene resulting in an abnormal hemoglobin (HbS...
3',5'-Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is a key second messenger that regulates function of proteins involved in ion homeostasis and cardiac excitation-contractio...
Elevated concentrations of heavy metals in water caused by mining activities create significant risks to the environment. Traditional biological methods used to assess...
Enzyme biosensors are useful tools that can monitor rapid changes in metabolite levels in real-time. However, current approaches are largely constrained to metabolites...
Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are essential amino acids, controlling cellular metabolic processes as signaling molecules; therefore, utilization of intracellular ...
The detection of bacterial deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is of great significance in the quality control of food and water. In this study, a light-addressable potentiome...
Technological advances in passive digital phenotyping present the opportunity to quantify neurological diseases using new approaches that may complement clinical asses...
Human access to safe water has become a major problem in many parts of the world as increasing human activities continue to spill contaminants into our water systems. ...
This work presents a proof-of-concept demonstration of a novel inductive transducer, the femtoMag, that can be integrated with a lateral-flow assay (LFA) to provide de...
A method is described to determine viable populations of Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). The method employs aptamer-magnetic separati...
Under stressful conditions some microorganisms adopt a quiescent stage characterized by a reversible non or slow proliferative condition that allows their survival. Th...
BACKGROUND: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common bacterial infection in the world. Some cases can have serious complication as death by septic shock. With ...
BACKGROUND: Abiraterone and MDV3100 are two effective anticancer agents for prostate cancer, however, the mechanism of their downstream action remains undefined. METHO...
