Article Abstract
Amantadine (AMA), commonly used to treat viral infections in livestock and poultry, has been banned owing to its potential hazards to human well-being. To detect unauthorized AMA usage in livestock, we developed a polyclonal antibody with a high affinity for the specific recognition of AMA through a rational design based on a structure similar to AMA and revealed the availability of the hapten design by computational chemistry analysis. Using this antibody, we established a highly responsive time-resolved fluorescence immunochromatographic assay (TRFICA). The visual detection limit of the assay is 0.6 μg/kg, and the quantitative detection limit is 0.05 μg/kg. The TRFICA also showed good recovery rates ranging from 94.5 to 109.9%, with variability coefficients not exceeding 10%. The outcomes of undisclosed sample examinations aligned with those of HPLC-MS/MS analyses, indicating that this approach can function as an ideal screening and monitoring tool for detecting illegal AMA in chicken muscle.

Significance: The spatial and temporal distribution of fluorophore fractions in biological and environmental systems contains valuable information about the interactions and dynamics of these systems. To access this information, fluorophore fractions are commonly determined by means of their fluorescence emission spectrum (ES) or lifetime (LT). Combining both dimensions in temporal-spectral multiplexed data enables more accurate fraction determination while requiring advanced and fast analysis methods to handle the increased data complexity and size.

was identified in human and mouse Huntington's disease brain as the pathogenic exon 1 mRNA generated from aberrant splicing between exon 1 and 2 of that contributes to aggregate formation and neuronal dysfunction. Detection of the huntingtin exon 1 protein (HTT1a) has been accomplished with Meso Scale Discovery, Homogeneous Time Resolved Fluorescence and immunoprecipitation assays in Huntington's disease knock-in mice, but direct detection in homogenates by gel electrophoresis and western blot assay has been lacking. Subcellular fractions prepared from mouse and human Huntington's disease brain were separated by gel electrophoresis and probed by western blot with neoepitope monoclonal antibodies 1B12 and 11G2 directed to the C-terminal eight residues of HTT1a.

Microbial co-cultures provide significant advantages over commonly used axenic cultures in biotechnological processes, including increased productivity and access to novel natural products. However, differentiated quantification of the microorganisms in co-cultures remains challenging using conventional measurement techniques. To address this, a fluorescence-based approach was developed to enable the differentiated online monitoring of microbial growth in co-cultures.

This study reports the synthesis and functionalization of poly-(-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) with anthracene units to enhance its blue photoluminescence properties. Structural and thermal analyses confirmed successful incorporation of anthracene moieties into the PVK backbone at an approximate 3:1 ratio of PVK repeat unit to anthracene. Photophysical characterization showed that anthracene-functionalized PVK (PVK-An) retained blue-region emission (432 nm), although with reduced emission efficiency due to π-π stacking interactions.

A dual-cavity lasing platform is reported in which thioflavin T (ThT), a rotor-sensitive molecular probe, is employed to map molecular-crowding effects within starch granules via coupled Fabry-Perot (FP) and whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonances. In this architecture, global standing-wave feedback is furnished by a planar FP cavity, while size-tunable WGMs are supported by ThT-coated starch granules. Granules were sorted into five diameter classes (<20, 20-30, 30-40, 40-60, and >60 μm), and lasing thresholds alongside fluorescence lifetimes were determined.
