Smart Biosensor for Breast Cancer Survival Prediction Based on Multi-View Multi-Way Graph Learning.

Biosensors play a crucial role in detecting cancer signals by orchestrating a series of intricate biological and physical transduction processes. Among various cancers, breast cancer stands out due to its genetic underpinnings, which trigger uncontrolled cell proliferation, predominantly impacting women, and resulting in significant mortality rates. The utilization of biosensors in predicting survival time becomes paramount in formulating an optimal treatment strategy.

Modifying carbon dots with L-phenylalanine for rapid discrimination of tryptophan enantiomers.

New chiral carbon dots (CDs), L-PCDs, for discriminating tryptophan (Trp) enantiomers were prepared in this work. Firstly, original CDs were synthesized through a hydrothermal method using pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid and -phenylenediamine as raw materials. Then, the surface of original CDs was modified with L-phenylalanine to create chiral fluorescent carbon L-PCDs.
