Biosensors for Seafood Safety Control-A Review.

The increased demand for consuming seafood has made seafood production undergo a rapid period of growth. However, seafood has a high risk of contamination from harmful microorganisms and marine toxins which can cause health problems for humans consuming it. Concerning this issue, monitoring seafood safety has become a center of attention for researchers, and developing effective methods for detecting contamination in seafood has become a critical research field.

Emerging Biomarkers in Metabolomics: Advancements in Precision Health and Disease Diagnosis.

Metabolomics has come to the fore as an efficient tool in the search for biomarkers that are critical for precision health approaches and improved diagnostics. This review will outline recent advances in biomarker discovery based on metabolomics, focusing on metabolomics biomarkers reported in cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and metabolic health. In cancer, metabolomics provides evidence for unique oncometabolites that are important for early disease detection and monitoring of treatment responses.

Advances in Wearable Biosensors for Healthcare: Current Trends, Applications, and Future Perspectives.

Wearable biosensors are a fast-evolving topic at the intersection of healthcare, technology, and personalized medicine. These sensors, which are frequently integrated into clothes and accessories or directly applied to the skin, provide continuous, real-time monitoring of physiological and biochemical parameters such as heart rate, glucose levels, and hydration status. Recent breakthroughs in downsizing, materials science, and wireless communication have greatly improved the functionality, comfort, and accessibility of wearable biosensors.

Colorimetric polymerase chain reaction mediated by pH indicator: Rapid detection of drug-resistant nosocomial bacteria.

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the gold standard for molecular diagnoses due to its high sensitivity and accuracy. However, conventional PCR exhibits limitations including extended analysis time and complicated sample treatment. To shorten the analysis time of standard three-step PCR, we employed a two-step PCR allowing for fast amplification of nucleic acid in a chip format.
