Eriochrome Blue SE, Eriochrome Red B, Naphthylazoxine 6S, SNAZOXS, and Zincon have been studied in order to find optimum conditions for their use as metallochromic indicators in direct visual chelometric titrations of zinc. The sharpness of the indicator transitions has been investigated by means of photometric titrations and the colour quality has been specified with the aid of the C.I.E. chromaticity systems. Zincon and Eriochrome Blue SE have been found to be the most convenient for visual titrations of zinc.

Loz1 is a zinc-responsive transcription factor in fission yeast that maintains cellular zinc homeostasis by repressing the expression of genes required for zinc uptake in high zinc conditions. Previous deletion analysis of Loz1 found a region containing two tandem CH zinc-fingers and an upstream "accessory domain" rich in histidine, lysine, and arginine residues to be sufficient for zinc-dependent DNA binding and gene repression. Here we report unexpected biophysical properties of this pair of seemingly classical CH zinc fingers.

Compared to natural enzymes, the development of efficient artificial simulated enzymes, such as those based on bimetallic materials with high catalytic activity and good stability, is an important way until now. Herein, we employed ZnCoO microspheres as carriers to synthesize Pt-doped composites with different amounts using a one-pot method. The morphology and structure of the synthesized materials were characterized using XRD, SEM, BET, FT-IR, XPS, and Zeta potential techniques.

Exosomes, extracellular vesicles crucial for intercellular communication, are emerging as significant biomarkers for disease diagnosis, especially in cancer. This study presented a dual-mode exosome detection platform using polydopamine microspheres doped with iron and zinc ions (PDA@Fe@Zn). These materials served as both artificial receptors for nucleic acid aptamers and nanozymes with peroxidase-like activity.

Amines are produced through various industrial and biological processes, contributing significantly to atmospheric pollution, particularly in the troposphere. Moreover, amine-related pollution raises global concerns due to its detrimental effects on human health, environmental quality, and the preservation of animal species. Low-molecular-weight volatile amines, categorized as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), are present in the atmosphere, and they represent the main cause of air pollution.
