Article Abstract

The ionic current blockades when poly(dT) or dNTPs passed through SiN nanopores in an aqueous solution containing (NH)SO were investigated. The dwell time of poly(dT) in the nanopores in an aqueous solution containing (NH)SO was significantly longer compared to that in an aqueous solution that did not contain (NH)SO. This dwell time prolongation effect due to the aqueous solution containing (NH)SO was also confirmed when dCTP passed through the nanopores. In addition, when the nanopores were fabricated via dielectric breakdown in the aqueous solution containing (NH)SO, the dwell time prolongation effect for dCTP still occurred even after the aqueous solution was displaced with the aqueous solution without (NH)SO. Furthermore, we measured the ionic current blockades when the four types of dNTPs passed through the same nanopore, and the four types of dNTPs could be statistically identified according to their current blockade values.

This study introduces a new, highly sensitive, and reliable method for detecting and measuring orthophosphate in environmental water samples. This method combines cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-mediated coacervation extraction with digital image-based colorimetry, providing a robust and efficient approach for orthophosphate analysis. In this system, CTAB, a cationic surfactant, serves a dual role as both an ion-pairing agent and an extraction medium.

Chemical gardens refer to a class of self-assembling structures of semi-permeable precipitates. They have been attracting significant interest due to their relevance to sub-oceanic hydrothermal vents and the origin of life. We have investigated the growth behaviour of chemical garden walls in a horizontal Hele-Shaw cell.

Synthetic dyes, such as Congo red (CR), pose serious threats to human health and aquatic ecosystems because of their carcinogenicity and resistance to degradation, necessitating the development of efficient and eco-friendly remediation strategies. In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized via a green method using Ocimum sanctum (holy basil) leaf extract and applied for CR dye removal from aqueous solutions. The adsorption process was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) based on Box-Behnken design (BBD), evaluating the influence of key parameters including pH, AgNP dosage, initial dye concentration, contact time, and temperature.

Fluorine-19 magnetic resonance imaging (F MRI) offers distinct advantages, including background-free signal detection, quantitative analysis, and deep tissue penetration. However, its application is currently limited by challenges associated with existing F MRI contrast agents, such as short transverse relaxation times (T), limited imaging sensitivity, and suboptimal biocompatibility. To overcome these limitations, a glutathione (GSH)-responsive triblock copolymer (PB7), featuring self-immolative characteristics, has been developed.
