Over the last few decades, field-effect transistor (FET)-based biosensors have demonstrated great potential across various industries, including medical, food, agriculture, environmental, and military sectors. These biosensors leverage the electrical properties of transistors to detect a wide range of biomolecules, such as proteins, DNA, and antibodies. This article presents a comprehensive review of advancements in the architectures of FET-based biosensors aiming to enhance device performance in terms of sensitivity, detection time, and selectivity.

Methods: This study was performed using data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI). 1647 knees in 1124 patients had bilateral fixed flexion radiographs acquired 48 months apart.
Food resources contaminated with spoilage or pathogenic microorganisms pose severe problems to all higher organisms. Here, we describe a food-hygienic strategy of the emerald cockroach wasp Ampulex compressa. The wasp larvae develop on and inside the American cockroach Periplaneta americana, a host that can harbor various putrefactive microbes, as well as human and insect pathogens.

Starting from inexpensive furan-3-carboxylic acid the targeted monoterpene was obtained in 12 steps via an asymmetric cyclopropanation-lactonization cascade and a stereoselective side chain insertion at an acetal-like position.
