Electrochemical sensors and electroanalytical techniques become emerging as effective and low-cost tools for rapid assessment of special parameters of the food quality. Chemically modified electrodes are developed to change properties and behaviour, particularly sensitivity and selectivity, of conventional electroanalytical sensors. Within this comprehensive review, novel trends in chemical modifiers material structure, electrodes construction and flow analysis platforms are described and evaluated. Numerous recent application examples for the detection of food specific analytes are presented in a form of table to stimulate further development in both, the basic research and commercial field.

Structural colors offer distinct advantages over traditional chemical colors (such as pigments and dyes), including high saturation, resistance to fading, and environmental friendliness. However, unlike traditional dyes or pigments that allow for Structural colors offer distinct advantages over traditional chemical colors (such as pigments and dyes), including high saturation, resistance to fading, and environmental friendliness. However, unlike traditional dyes or pigments that allow for arbitrary color adjustments during the coloring process, current structural color surfaces lack flexibility in control, as their colors are difficult to reprocess or adjust once formed.

Paraptosis is a distinct form of programmed cell death characterized by cytoplasmic vacuolization, mitochondrial swelling, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) dilation, offering an alternative to apoptosis for therapeutic applications. In this study, we identified a hemicyanine derivative that is a potent paraptosis inducer in two cancer cell lines. This compound triggers hallmark paraptotic features, including ER swelling, mitochondrial morphological changes, increased superoxide production, and caspase-independent cell death.

Palytoxin-like compounds, including ovatoxins, are potent emerging toxins responsible for human respiratory poisonings following inhalation of contaminated marine aerosols. Periodic massive proliferations of the ovatoxin-producing organism (Ostreopsis cf. ovata) worldwide, particularly in the Mediterranean, have caused severe toxic outbreaks, drawing the attention of health authorities.

Maintaining safe and potent drug levels in vivo is challenging. Multidomain peptides assemble into supramolecular hydrogels with a well-defined, highly porous nanostructure that makes them attractive for drug delivery. However, their ability to extend release is typically limited by rapid drug diffusion.

The transcription factor Six1 and its co-activator Eya1 play central and varied roles during the development of sensory neurons derived from the cranial placodes in vertebrates. Previous studies suggested that these proteins promote both the maintenance of proliferative neuronal progenitors and neuronal differentiation. Context-specific interactions of Six1 and/or Eya1 with different cofactors are likely to contribute to the activation of distinct target genes during different stages of placodal neurogenesis.
