Notably, GLY strongly coordinated with the Ce³⁺/Zr⁴⁺ active centers, effectively inhibiting the catalytic reaction and leading to concentration-dependent attenuation of both color intensity and photothermal heating.

This platform also demonstrates excellent selectivity and long-term stability.

Here, we demonstrate a dual-mode wearable health monitoring system based on functionalized hydrogel, which realizes accurate detection of ionic concentrations in human sweat and stable extraction of pulse wave signals. A porous hydrogel sweat sensing platform based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is designed to solve the problems of low electrolyte penetration efficiency and skin irritation during sweat detection. Combined with electrodes modified with polypyrrole (Ppy) and ionophores, electrochemical sensors capable of measuring the concentrations of sodium (Na⁺) and chloride (Cl^-) ions are constructed. The sensitivity of the sensors is close to theoretical value of the Nernst equation, exhibiting good selectivity, repeatability, long-term stability, and reliability. In order to capture weak pulse signals, we have developed a highly sensitive pulse sensor based on PVA/poly (ethylene glycol) (PVA/PEG) dual network conductive hydrogel. Furthermore, a pyramid array structure is designed to develop piezoresistive flexible pressure sensor. This sensor features high sensitivity, rapid response/recovery time (25.0 ms/17.5 ms), low detection limit (7.9 Pa), and long-term stability, capable of accurately detecting arterial pulse waves and heart rate under various physiological conditions.

The study successfully generated two high-affinity monoclonal antibodies (KD ≈ 10^-10 M), designated 2F10 and 12H6, which are epitope-specific and target distinct N-terminal and C-terminal regions of Aβ1-40.

The Ficoll400-SA carrier, formed by conjugating multiple streptavidin molecules to the Ficoll400 backbone and further crosslinking, enabled substantial signal amplification by facilitating rapid, homogeneous reactions and high-density enzyme loading capacity. Optimization of assay conditions demonstrated a 13-fold signal enhancement compared to conventional streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase (SA-HRP) systems, achieving an ultra-low detection limit of 0.28 pg mL^-1 and a broad dynamic range (0.54-1000 pg mL^-1).

Automated total dissolution was employed to ensure complete extraction of both endogenous and exogenous uranium from solid matrices, while reproducible chemical separation was achieved using an automated platform equipped with regenerable UTEVA resin.
