A Fully Integrated Conformal Wearable Ultrasound Patch for Continuous Sonodynamic Therapy.

Cancer treatment is a continuous process, that the current therapy cannot meet the requirement well, including radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Wearable ultrasound device has the potential for continuous sonodynamic therapy due to its portability. However, the miniaturization of ultrasonic probe, system integration of device, and the strategy of continuous treatment are still urgent issues to be addressed.

Fully Integrated Ratiometric Fluorescence Enrichment Platform for High-Sensitivity POC Testing of Salivary Cancer Biomarkers.

The point-of-care (POC) testing of cancer biomarkers in saliva with both high sensitivity and accuracy remains a serious challenge in modern clinical medicine. Herein, we develop a new fully integrated ratiometric fluorescence enrichment platform that utilizes acoustic radiation forces to enrich dual-emission sandwich immune complexes for a POC visual assay. As a result, the color signals from red and green fluorescence (capture probe and report probe, respectively) are enhanced by nearly 10 times, and colorimetric sensitivity is effectively improved.
