MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that play pivotal roles in gene regulation; they are increasingly recognized as vital biomarkers for various diseases, notably cancer. Conventional methods for miRNA detection, such as quantitative PCR and microarray analysis, often entail intricate sample preparation and lack the requisite sensitivity to detect low-abundance miRNAs like miRNA-21. This protocol presents an innovative approach that combines branched hybridization chain reaction (bHCR) with DNAzyme technology for the precise detection of miRNA-21.

This study optimizes standard oxygen transfer efficiency (SOTE) in Venturi flumes investigating the impact of key parameters such as discharge per unit width (), throat width (), throat length (), upstream entrance width (), and gauge readings ( and ). To achieve this, a comprehensive experimental dataset was analyzed using multiple linear regression (MLR), multiple nonlinear regression (MNLR), gradient boosting machine (GBM), extreme gradient boosting (XRT), random forest (RF), M5 (pruned and unpruned), random tree (RT), and reduced error pruning (REP). Model performance was evaluated based on key metrics: correlation coefficient (CC), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute error (MAE).

This paper presents a slot antenna integrated with a split ring resonator (SRR) and feed line, designed to achieve a high Q-factor while maximizing channel capacity utilization. By incorporating a lens into the dielectric resonator antenna (DRA), we enhance both bandwidth and directivity, with the dielectric material's permittivity serving as a key control parameter for radiation characteristics. We explore water and ethanol as controllable dielectrics within the terahertz (THz) frequency range (0.

Developing a fluorescence sensing platform for point-of-care detection of low abundance biomarkers is highly valuable for early diagnosis of disease. Herein, a biomimetic fluorescence-enhanced platform based on photonic crystals and DNAzyme walker was constructed and further applied to visualize and quantify the miRNA-21 in biological samples. The DNAzyme walker was orthogonally activated by the target miRNA-21, which enabled the unlocking of the DNAzyme walker strand and the subsequently repeated substrate cleavage, thus generating enhanced fluorescence signals.
