Therefore, the exploitation of single probes capable of simultaneously visualizing two organelles is significant yet challenging. In this study, a novel fluorescent probe able to visualize both the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and lysosomes concurrently was utilized to monitor apoptosis and autophagy. Leveraging the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) mechanisms, the probe (named EL) demonstrated distinct variations in fluorescent intensity within solutions of different pH levels, which enables the differentiation of ER and lysosomes due to their diverse pH values. EL was also effective in monitoring apoptosis with a decrease in fluorescent intensity, and it could visualize the increase of fluorescent intensity in autophagy. Consequently, the discrimination of apoptosis and autophagy processes was achieved. The potential applications of EL in visualizing ER and lysosomes and tracking their dynamic changes during various physiological processes are significant, so this probe would prompt the development of physiology and pathology related to ER and lysosomes.","PeriodicalId":425,"journal":{"name":"Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142678713","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In pursuit of improving current treatment of communicating hydrocephalus, we developed a 3D-printed microfluidic chip that uses flexible material and features a one-way valve to prevent backflow.

Herein, a low fouling electrochemical biosensing platform has been developed that leverage two kinds of antifouling materials. One material employed is a specially designed functional peptide, while the other is inspired by the adhesive properties of mussels, known as poly(noradrenaline) (PNE). Compared with polydopamine, the PNE is more effective in reducing the nonspecific adsorption in serum samples. The biosensor, which was developed using PNE and peptide, demonstrated exceptional resistance to fouling and a broad liner detection range of 10.0 pg·mL<sup>−1</sup> - 10.0 µg·mL<sup>−1</sup> for the detection of the target extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 (ERK2), allowing for accurate measurements over a broad range of concentrations, with a limit of detection of 3.97 pg·mL<sup>−1</sup>.

The distinctive interaction between the size-selective poly-hydroxyproline helical peptide (PHHP) and poly(<em>o</em>-phenylenediamine) (p(o-PD)) molecularly imprinted films, strongly reduced non-specific adsorption. In the face of high concentrations of organic matters and ions, the reported sensor exhibited robust antifouling capabilities that it preserved 90 % of the initial signal.

However, conventional aerogels used for multifunctional sensing often involve complex fabrication processes, lack durability, and struggle to achieve collaborative sensing in complex scenarios, sometimes even lacking conductivity. This paper presents a novel strategy for synthesizing aerogels with interconnected internal networks directly through electrospinning technology, forming a three-dimensional fluffy structure with interlinked nanofibers. Subsequently, ultra-lightweight, highly elastic, and conductive composite carbon nanofiber aerogels (CCNA) were synthesized through high-temperature calcination and in-situ polymerization, suitable for collaborative physiological signal monitoring in complex situations. By controlling the density and phase separation of the charge jet, the three-dimensional fluffy structure of CCNA can be directly formed without strict reliance on external environmental conditions. The combination of CCNA's three-dimensional fluffiness and hydrophobic-hydrophilic properties enables it to operate within an extremely wide range of relative humidity (10% RH - 95% RH), while its internally continuous fiber network structure ensures stable and reliable electrical signal response even after 5000 compression cycles, with a compression response time of only 55ms.

To address the limitations of traditional methods for polymerase activity determination, such as low accuracy, complicated operation, and radioactive hazards, we have devised an absolute-quantitation method for Taq DNA polymerase based on chemiluminescence detection of the consumption of dATP (CDC-dATP).
