The adsorption of DNA probes onto nanomaterials represents a promising bioassay technique, generally employing fluorescence or catalytic activity to generate signals. A significant challenge is maintaining the catalytic activity of chromogenic catalysts during detection while enhancing accuracy by overcoming the limitations of single-signal transmission. This article presents an innovative multimodal analysis approach that synergistically combines the oxidase-like activity of Fe-N-C nanozyme (Fe-NC) with red fluorescent carbon quantum dots (R-CQDs), further advancing the dual-mode analysis method utilizing R-CQDs@Fe-NC.

Background: It is highly desirable to concurrently evaluate both pathogenic and total bacteria in water and food environments. As a point-of-care platform for biochemical tests, lateral flow assay (LFA) has been widely used for pathogenic bacteria due to its portability and fast time of outcome. However, traditional LFA was unable to detect total bacteria due to the lack of a universal antibody that could bind all the bacteria.

The accurate quantification of multicomponents using LC-MS is pivotal for ensuring the quality control of herbal medicine, as well as the investigation of their analysis of biological tissue distribution. However, two significant challenges persist: the scarcity of authentic standards and the selection of appropriate internal standards. In this study, we present a highly sensitive isotope-coded equivalent reporter ion assay (iERIA) that combines equivalently quantitative ion and isotope-coded derivatization strategies.

Background: Mammalian metallothioneins (MTs) play a crucial role in maintaining Zn(II) and Cu(I) homeostasis, as well as regulating the cellular redox potential. They are involved in cancer resistance to cisplatin-related drugs and the sequestration of toxic metal ions. To investigate their participation in specific physiological and pathological processes, it is imperative to develop an analytical method for measuring changes in protein concentration both in vitro and in vivo.

The anti-Stokes emission of photon upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) facilitates their use as labels for ultrasensitive detection in biological samples as infrared excitation does not induce autofluorescence at visible wavelengths. The detection of extremely low-abundance analytes, however, remains challenging as it is impossible to completely avoid nonspecific binding of label conjugates. To overcome this limitation, we developed a novel hybridization complex transfer technique using UCNP labels to detect short nucleic acids directly without target amplification.
