Article Abstract

Bladder cancer is a common malignant tumour with high recurrence rate. Cytokeratin 19 fragments (Cyfra21-1) in urine has been regarded as a promising biomarker for the prognosis and diagnosis of bladder cancer due to the relevance of its high urinary level to the bladder cancer patients. However, currently detection methods of Cyfra21-1 have their limits, such as complicated steps, limited sensitivity or unsatisfying specificity. In this study, we developed a novel time-resolved fluoroimmuno test strip by using europium chelate microparticle (Eu-CM). Detection was performed in simple steps by carrying drops of sample into the well of the test strip, waiting for 15 min and inserting the strip into a fluorescence strip reader for quantitation. The standard curve equation of the test strip was  = 0.0177 + 0.01 ( = .9993). In the analysis of human urine samples ( = 115), it demonstrated a good performance (accuracy: CV < 10%, AUC: 0.989). With the cut-off value of 81 ng/mL, the sensitivity and specificity for bladder cancer were 92.86 and 100%, respectively. In comparison to ELISA and electrochemiluminescence methods, the Eu-CM based time-resolved fluoroimmuno test strip provided a rapid, sensitive and reliable method for monitoring bladder cancer. It may be applied as a non-invasive approach for in point-of-care for bladder cancer detection.

Biogenic amines (BAs) are organic nitrogen compounds formed through microbial decarboxylation of amino acids during food spoilage and biological metabolism. Therefore, the development of rapid, selective, and cost-effective detection strategies for BAs is significant for ensuring food safety and quality. In this study, a new dicyanoisophorone-based fluorescent probe (IPC) was developed, capable of fluorescence detection of aliphatic primary amines (e.

A series of molecular logic gates with multiple biocomputing capabilities have been successfully fabricated by using four antibiotic residues [tetracycline (TET), chloramphenicol (CHL), kanamycin (KAN), and streptomycin (STR)] as inputs. The lateral flow strip biosensor was utilized to realize the visual and portable sensing of logic events. Four basic logic gates (OR, AND, XOR, and INHIBIT) and three cascade logic circuits (OR-INHIBIT-AND, 3AND-OR, and XOR-INHIBIT-OR-AND) were constructed.

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the inflammatory responses of two cordless gingival retraction systems by assessing the levels of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF). The objectives were to measure IL-1β and TNF-α levels before and after retraction using kaolin-based and polyvinyl acetate-based cordless gingival retraction materials at baseline, 1 h, and 24 h, and to compare the inflammatory profiles of these materials.

Materials And Methods: This in-vivo comparative study used a split-mouth design, with each of the 10 enrolled patients serving as their own control by receiving both kaolin-based paste (Traxodent®, Premier Dental Products, Plymouth Meeting, PA, USA) and polyvinyl acetate-based strip (Merocel®, Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) on different endodontically treated teeth requiring full-coverage crowns, thereby minimizing interindividual variability.
