Residue depletion and withdrawal time estimation of tilmicosin in black-bone silky fowls after administration via drinking water.

In this study, residue depletion and withdrawal time estimation of tilmicosin were examined in Taihe black-bone silky fowls (TBSFs) after oral administration for three consecutive days at a dose of 75 mg/L in water. The tilmicosin concentrations in liver, kidney, muscle, and skin/fat of TBSFs collected from different time points (0.16, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 20, 30, 40 days after last administration) were determined by UPLC-MS/MS.

Sensitive detection of cadmium ions based on a quantum-dot-mediated fluorescent visualization sensor.

A sensitive ratiometric fluorescent sensor for detecting cadmium ions (Cd) was constructed based on carbon quantum dots (CQDs)/CdTe quantum dots (CdTe QDs). Red fluorescence (from CdTe QDs) played the role of the signal response and blue fluorescence (from CQDs) served as a reference probe without a color change. The fluorescent sensor showed high selectivity and sensitivity to Cd with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.

Real-Time Visualization of the Single-Nanoparticle Electrocatalytic Hydrogen Generation Process and Activity under Dark Field Microscopy.

Visualizing a chemical reaction process is critical for understanding the mechanism of the reaction. For example, information on chemical reactions involving single nanocatalysts has significant implications for mechanism research and is vital for guiding the selection of the most active nanocatalysts. In this work, dark field microscopy (DFM) is utilized to observe the electrocatalytic reaction process of Au-Pt core-shell nanoparticles (AuNPs@Pt) as an example.
