Article Abstract
A simple and accurate method was developed for separation and enrichment of trace levels of gold in environmental samples. The method is based on the adsorption of Au(III)-diethyldithiocarbamate complex on Amberlite XAD-2000 resin prior to the analysis of gold by flame atomic absorption spectrometry after elution with 1 molL(-1) HNO3 in acetone. Some parameters including nitric acid concentration, eluent type, matrix ions, sample volume, sample flow rate and adsorption capacity were investigated on the recovery of gold(III). The recovery values for gold(III) and detection limit of gold were greater than 95% and 16.6 microgL(-1), respectively. The preconcentration factor was 200. The relative standard deviation of the method was <6%. The adsorption capacity of the resin was 12.3 mg g(-1). The validation of the presented procedure was checked by the analysis of CRM-SA-C Sandy Soil certified reference material. The presented procedure was applied to the determination of gold in some environmental samples.

Many pharmaceutical targets partition into biomolecular condensates, whose microenvironments can significantly influence drug distribution. Nevertheless, it is unclear how drug design principles should adjust for these targets to optimize target engagement. To address this question, we systematically investigated how condensate microenvironments influence drug-targeting efficiency.

For recovering whey soybean protein (WSP) from soybean whey wastewater (SWW) in food industry, a foam separation method for separating WSP by using temperature-responsive Janus sheets (MF-JNSs-PN) as foam stabilizer was established. MF-JNSs-PN was prepared by grafting the temperature-responsive polymer PNIPAM onto one side of the sheet inorganic material using BSA@Cu(PO)-MF as the template. MF-JNSs-PN has a good ability to stabilize the foam due to inducing the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity transition by adjusting the temperature.

The biophysical properties of single cells are crucial for understanding cellular function and behavior in biology and medicine. However, precise manipulation of cells in 3-D microfluidic environments remains challenging, particularly for heterogeneous populations. Here, we present "Electro-LEV," a unique platform integrating electromagnetic and magnetic levitation principles for dynamic 3-D control of cell position during separation.

Inorganic nanomaterial-based peroxidase mimics have recently emerged as promising alternatives to natural peroxidases for enhancing the detection sensitivity of bioassays, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Among them, magnetically active peroxidase mimics are particularly advantageous due to their ability to facilitate efficient separation and enrichment of target analytes. However, most reported magnetic peroxidase mimics suffer from limited catalytic efficiency and stability.

Background: Maternal dietary intervention utilizing complex additives rich in β-carotene has demonstrated the capacity to enhance embryonic intestinal development and influence microbial composition in offspring. Nevertheless, the extended impact of maternal β-carotene inclusion on the intestinal health of post-hatching chicks is still not fully elucidated.
Objective: This research aimed to evaluate the impacts of maternal β-carotene supplementation on the intestinal development and microbial communities in chicks after hatching.
