One of the most promising approaches to effectively modulate the performance of immunochromatography (ICA) is the rational design of nanomaterials. It is anticipated to facilitate highly sensitive ICA analysis by introducing and controlling the internal defect structures of nanomaterials. Herein, we designed BiS@AuNPs with deep-level defect properties, revealing that these deep defects act as electron-hole nonradiative complex centers to promote phonon production, ultimately leading to photothermal analytical performance in ICA.

The catalytic, regulatory and structural properties of RNA, combined with their extraordinary ubiquity in cellular processes, are consistent with the proposal that this molecule played a much more conspicuous role in heredity and metabolism during the early stages of biological evolution. This review explores the pivotal role of RNA in the earliest life forms and its relevance in modern biological systems. It examines current models that study the early evolution of life, providing insights into the primordial RNA world and its legacy in contemporary biology.
