Article Abstract
A sol-gel approach including partially removing capping agents, depositing SiO(2) monomers, and growing a SiO(2) shell was developed to generate a bio-compatible functionalization on CdTe quantum dots (QDs). The QDs retained their high photoluminescence (PL) efficiency after coating with a SiO(2) shell (22.5%) by controlling the surface state of the QDs to decrease PL degradation during a sol-gel preparation. Furthermore, the CdTe QDs with a SiO(2) shell were conjugated with IgG using 3-sulfo-N-hydroxysuccinimide or streptavidin-maleimide as linkers. The biotin-streptavidin linker resulted in a high PL efficiency retained (only ~23% lower than the initial value of the QDs), which is crucial for bio-applications.

Background: The separation of structural isomers is always a challenging task for liquid chromatography because of their similar physicochemical property. Research has found that materials with regular microporous structures exhibit excellent isomer separation performance. However, as the most easily available chromatographic material, silica stationary phases with regular and small mesopore structure have not yet been prepared, and it remains to be confirmed whether narrow pores in silica materials have the enhancing effect on shape selectivity in the separation of structural isomers.

Meat adulteration with undeclared species remains a pervasive problem. We report a rapid, sensitive, and field-deployable assay-termed magnetic nanoparticle-assisted multiplex recombinase polymerase amplification (mRPA) with fluorescence detection for the simultaneous detection of horse and chicken components in meat. It integrates mRPA, streptavidin-coated core-shell FeO@SiO nanoparticles, and dual-labeled primers targeting ATP6-8 (horse) and CYTB (chicken) genes.

Dielectric materials with superior dielectric properties are pivotal for enhancing the performance of electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) devices. In this work, MWCNTs@SiO core-shell-structured fillers were fabricated by coating multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with a uniform SiO outer layer. This innovative core-shell structure was incorporated into a poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene) (P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE)) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) organic matrix to fabricate composite films with enhanced dielectric properties.
