Article Abstract

A sensitive dual immunochromatographic test strip (dual-ICTS) was developed to detect malachite green (MG) and its metabolite, leucomalachite green (LMG), using two types of gold nanoparticles: round-shaped (red) and star-shaped (blue). The detection limits were determined to be 0.221 μg L for MG and 0.214 μg L for LMG, respectively. The dual-ICTS provided a cut-off value of 1.8 μg L for MG and LMG detection. The dual-ICTS successfully detected MG and LMG in food samples, with recovery rates ranging from 86 % to 116 %. The dual-ICTS was evaluated by correlation analysis between the proposed assay and the well-established enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in the MG and LMG detection. This is the first report on the development of the ICTS that can detect both MG and LMG at the same time within only 5 min, making it a sensitive and rapid tool for on-site detection.

Coinfection of humans with Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) and non-viral pathogens may worsen the outcome of HBV infection on the liver. This study determined the prevalence of Heliobacter pylori, Salmonella typhi, Plasmodium falciparum, and Toxoplasma gondii among Hepatitis B Virus (HBV)-infected persons in the Greater Accra Region (GAR) of Ghana and examined how such co-infections might affect the levels of selected liver function markers (LFM). The design was cross-sectional, involving 120 HBsAg-positive HBV-infected persons.

Background: Anemia is the most frequent complication during pregnancy. Iron and folate deficiencies are the primary causes of anemia during pregnancy resulting from low hemoglobin concentration. Globally, preventive strategies such as iron and folic acid supplementation, improved dietary practice and deworming program play a crucial role in reducing the rate of anemia.

Background: The excessive use of pesticide pollutants in agricultural production seriously threatens food safety. Traditional detection techniques are difficult to meet the detection requirements due to the complex sample pretreatment and high detection costs. The immunochromatography method (ICA) is simple to operate and fast, and is suitable for on-site rapid detection.

The Akabane virus (AKAV) is a significant member of the Orthobunyavirus genus, with its envelope glycoprotein Gc, focusing on its molecular structural features, immunoregulatory mechanisms, and application value in pathogen diagnosis and vaccine design. As a key structural protein of AKAV, Gc mediates virus adsorption and neutralizing antibody recognition through the N-terminal highly variable region (HVR), while the C-terminal conserved region (CR) dominates the membrane fusion process, and its glycosylation modification has a significant regulatory effect on protein function. In clinical diagnostics, serological assays based on Gc proteins (e.
