Article Abstract
Graphene-based field-effect transistor (GFET) biosensors face limitations in detecting charged analytes due to ionic screening (Debye screening effect). This limitation restricts their ability to detect charged target analytes in physiological solutions. To overcome this challenge, we present a non-destructive van der Waals (vdW) integration of an epitope molecular-imprinted membrane (EMIM) with a GFET biosensor. This innovative vdW-heterostructured biosensor, termed the EMIM-Chip, features a 3.3 ± 1.7 nm thin EMIM dielectric layer self-assembled on the graphene surface. The EMIM layer, featuring specifically imprinted cavities, replaces antibodies and effectively mitigates ionic screening. This innovation enables rapid detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarker Aβ proteins (50 aM-5 pM) in purified samples and patient plasma/urine within minutes. Notably, these sensors retain their functionality even after 30 days of environmental storage, positioning our approach as a promising foundation for future medical tool development.

Self-healing polymeric coatings represent a transformative class of smart materials capable of autonomously or stimuli-responsively repairing mechanical or environmental damage, thereby significantly extending the operational lifespan of protected substrates. This review systematically elucidates the underlying mechanisms and chemistries enabling self-healing behavior, encompassing both extrinsic strategies such as microcapsules, microvascular networks, and corrosion inhibitor reservoirs and intrinsic approaches based on dynamic covalent (e.g.

Secretory diarrhea is characterized by excessive production of electrolytes and water by intestinal epithelial cells, resulting in persistent watery stools. This study suggested that abnormal activation of TMEM16A might contribute to its pathogenesis. A drug screening identified thymol, a natural product, as a significant inhibitor of TMEM16A channel activity.

We present a method for large-scale DFT-based screening of ion diffusion in crystalline solids. This is accomplished by extending the Ionic TuTraSt method to sample the potential energy surface by using single-point DFT calculations. To drastically reduce the number of single-point DFT calculations, symmetry, interpolation, and exclusion of high-energy regions are employed.
