Complete Genome Sequence of Genotype Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease Virus, a Strain Identified from Budgerigars in China.

Psittacine beak and feather disease virus (PBFDV) has been reported in many countries, such as Australia, Poland, the United States, South Africa, etc. In this study, the complete genome of a PBFDV isolate was determined and characterized from budgerigars in China.

Complete Genome Sequence of Brucella canis GB1, a Strain Isolated from a Poodle in Beijing, China.

Brucella spp. are facultative intracellular pathogens and zoonotic agents which pose a great threat to human health. Twelve different Brucella species have been identified to date.

Fluorescent molecularly imprinted nanoparticles for selective and rapid detection of ciprofloxacin in aquaculture water.

Fluorescent molecularly imprinted nanoparticles have shown great promise in the field of chemical analysis or detection because of their high stability, selectivity, and sensitivity. In this work, fluorescent molecularly imprinted nanoparticles were synthesized by precipitation polymerization employing fluorescein isothiocyanate as luminescent material, which could efficiently and rapidly detect ciprofloxacin in water samples. The prepared fluorescent molecularly imprinted nanoparticles had remarkable stability and good selectivity with the method detection limit low to 4.

Synthesis of molecularly imprinted dye-silica nanocomposites with high selectivity and sensitivity: Fluorescent imprinted sensor for rapid and efficient detection of τ-fluvalinate in vodka.

An imprinted fluorescent sensor was fabricated based on SiO nanoparticles encapsulated with a molecularly imprinted polymer containing allyl fluorescein. High fluorine cypermethirin as template molecules, methyl methacrylate as functional monomer, and allyl fluorescein as optical materials synthesized a core-shell fluorescent molecular imprinted sensor, which showed a high and rapid sensitivity and selectivity for the detection of τ-fluvalinate. The sensor presented appreciable sensitivity with a limit of 13.
