Here we report on the detection and surveillance response to two species found in Sydney, Australia, in 2015. Both and were found in association with cankers on (English oak). The fungi were initially found to be localised on amenity trees in northern Sydney, New South Wales, and as they were new detections for Australia, eradication was considered. Ongoing surveillance across the Sydney basin, regional New South Wales, and the Australian Capital Territory, however, indicated that they were already well established. Species identities were confirmed through morphological examination and molecular barcoding, with the subsequent analysis undertaken to classify This study provides the first records of found in association with canker on Oak trees in Australia.

The antibiotic contamination in aquatic environments, particularly in aquaculture systems, poses substantial risks to ecological balance and human health. To address this issue, we engineered a novel ratiometric fluorescent probe utilizing dual-emission carbon dots (D-CDs) synthesized from sustainable biomass carrot and nitrogen-rich precursors (melamine and o-phenylenediamine) through an efficient one-pot hydrothermal approach. The D-CDs exhibited dual emission peaks at 425nm and 540 nm under 370nm excitation.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is an inflammatory skin disease that produces a variety of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Chitinase-3-like protein 1 (CHI3L1, YKL-40) significantly contributes to AD-associated inflammatory response and is highly expressed in patients with AD. Therefore, this study elucidated the effects and potential mechanisms of human YKL-40 antibody on AD-affected skin.

Freezing point depression due to high salt concentration is crucial for liquid water to exist on cold worlds, expanding special regions where habitats are plausible. Determination of the growth tolerances of terrestrial microbes in analog systems impacts planetary protection protocols aimed at preventing interference with life detection missions or potential native ecosystems on celestial bodies. We measured the salinity tolerances of 18 salinotolerant bacteria (Bacillus, Halomonas, Marinococcus, Nesterenkonia, Planococcus, Salibacillus, and Terribacillus).

Fire is a key natural disturbance influencing physical, chemical, and biological processes in the Cerrado. Ash, a fire byproduct, may significantly influence soil macrofauna through its chemical properties. Dung beetles (Scarabaeinae), critical components of Cerrado soil macrofauna, provide key ecological functions and services.

This work presents the development of a highly sensitive, selective, and efficient aptamer-based fluorescent sensor for detecting cortisol in human urine. Carbon quantum dots-nucleic acid aptamer (CQDs-Apt) synthesized with excellent photoluminescent properties and stability, were selected as the fluorescent probe. In the presence of MoS-NSs, CQDs-Apt adsorbed onto the surface of MoS-NSs via electrostatic and π-π interactions, leading to strong and rapid fluorescence quenching due to static quenching mechanism between them.
