Rapid and sensitive detection of pathogenic bacteria is crucial for disease prevention and control. The CRISPR/Cas12a system with the DNA cleavage capability holds promise in pathogenic bacteria diagnosis. However, the sensitivity of CRISPR-based assays remains a challenge.

- Constructing a high-porosity three-dimensional network is essential for silica aerogels, providing them with valuable properties, but their mechanical strength is often weak due to their structure.
- This study explores using thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) to enhance the strength of silica aerogels, resulting in significantly improved mechanical properties.
- The PMMA-modified aerogels demonstrated a notable increase in flexural strength (up to 120%) and compressive strength (up to 1400%) while only slightly increasing density (28%), indicating an effective method to reinforce aerogels without losing their desirable lightweight characteristics.
There are currently various protocols for in vitro fertilization (IVF). For patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), an optimized protocol for the downregulation of pituitary follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone via gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) remains a challenge. In the present study, the primary endpoint of an ultra-long and a conventional long GnRHa protocol for intracytoplasmic sperm injection/IVF treatments of patients with PCOS was retrospectively compared.
