Persistence of spike protein at the skull-meninges-brain axis may contribute to the neurological sequelae of COVID-19.

SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with long-lasting neurological symptoms, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Using optical clearing and imaging, we observed the accumulation of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in the skull-meninges-brain axis of human COVID-19 patients, persisting long after viral clearance. Further, biomarkers of neurodegeneration were elevated in the cerebrospinal fluid from long COVID patients, and proteomic analysis of human skull, meninges, and brain samples revealed dysregulated inflammatory pathways and neurodegeneration-associated changes.

Zr-based metalloporphyrin MOF probe for electrochemical detection of parathion-methyl.

An electrochemical (EC) sensor based on metalloporphyrin metal-organic framework (MOF) for the detection of parathion-methyl (PM) has been developed. The prepared MOF-525(Fe) exhibits great signal enhancement toward the electrochemical detection of PM owing to its unique structural properties and electrochemical activities. Under optimal experimental conditions, the as-prepared MOF-525(Fe) based EC sensor exhibited excellent PM sensing performance with a wide linear detection range (0.

Nitrogen stable isotope analysis of sulfonamides by derivatization-gas chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry.

The continuous introduction of micropollutants into the environment through livestock farming, agricultural practices, and wastewater treatment is a major concern. Among these pollutants are synthetic sulfonamide antibiotics such as sulfamethoxazole, which are not always fully degraded and pose a risk of fostering antimicrobial resistance. It is challenging to assess the degradation of sulfonamides with conventional concentration measurements.
