Single-molecule spectroscopy has emerged as a valuable tool in probing kinetics and dynamic equilibria in adsorption because advances in instrumentation and technology have enabled researchers to obtain high signal-to-noise ratios for common dyes at room temperature. Single-molecule spectroscopy was applied to the study of an important problem in chromatography: peak broadening and asymmetry in the chromatograms of pharmaceuticals, peptides, and proteins. Using DiI, a cationic dye that exhibits the same problematic chromatographic behavior, investigators showed that the adsorption sites that cause chromatographic problems are located at defects on the silica crystal surface.

Introduction: Studies have shown that blood biomarkers can differentiate dementia disorders. However, the diagnosis of dementia still relies primarily on cerebrospinal fluid and imaging modalities. The new disease-modifying treatments call for more widely applicable biomarkers.

Objectives: Loneliness is associated with an elevated risk of dementia. There is mixed evidence from imaging studies on whether loneliness is associated with neuropathology in dementia-free adults. This study tests whether loneliness is associated with plasma neurobiomarkers of amyloid (Aβ42/Aβ40), phosphorylated tau 181 (pTau181), neurofilament light chain (NfL), and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and imaging measures of amyloid and tau.

Designing efficient drug delivery systems for optimum therapeutic outcomes and minimum adverse effects remains a pivotal focus in pharmaceutical research. Understanding the nature of interactions between drugs and drug carriers and the drug-release mechanism are the key aspects for the development of effective delivery systems. This work presents a detailed investigation into the intricate interactions between niosomes and the drug Phenosafranin (PSF), and the subsequent release induced by a variety of cyclodextrins (CDs) employing a multifaceted approach.

Organic dyes play a crucial role in live-cell imaging because of their advantageous properties, such as photostability and high brightness. Here we introduce a super-photostable and bright organic dye, Phoenix Fluor 555 (PF555), which exhibits an order-of-magnitude longer photobleaching lifetime than conventional organic dyes without the requirement of any anti-photobleaching additives. PF555 is an asymmetric cyanine structure in which, on one side, the indole in the conventional Cyanine-3 is substituted with 3-oxo-quinoline.

The compaction of chromatin is a prevalent paradigm in gene repression. Chromatin compaction is commonly thought to repress transcription by restricting chromatin accessibility. However, the spatial organization and dynamics of chromatin compacted by gene-repressing factors are unknown.
