SPR-Based Sensor for the Early Detection or Monitoring of Kidney Problems.

SPR-based technology has emerged as one of the most versatile optical tools for analyzing the binding mechanism of molecular interaction due to its inherent advantages in sensing applications, such as real-time, label-free, and high sensitivity characteristics. SPR is widely used in various fields, including healthcare, environmental management, and food-borne illness analysis. Meanwhile, kidney disease has grown to be one of the world's most serious public health problems in recent decades, resulting in physical degeneration and even death.

Performance of the dye-sensitized quasi-solid state solar cell with combined anthocyanin-ruthenium photosensitizer.

This work contributes to combining 12.2 mM purified anthocyanin of cyanidin-3-glucoside extracted from Indonesian black rice as the natural pigment with a ruthenium photosensitizer (1 : 1) in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) in liquid and quasi solid-state electrolytes. The findings essentially highlight the spectroscopic and electron transfer mechanism for the future trend of D-π-A natural pigment modification.
