A 4.1. Kb large DNA fragment of a E. coli plasmid pVU 3695, on which the genes for formaldehyde-resistance are located, was used as a DNA probe to identify bacteria that carry this segment among formaldehyde-resistant bacteria. It was shown by Southern Blot-, Dot Blot-, and Colony Blot- Hybridization studies that the DNA of all formaldehyde-resistant E. coli, Serratia marcescens, Enterobacter cloacae, Citrobacter freundii and Klebsiella pneumoniae strains tested hybridize with the DNA probe from E. coli. In contrast the E. coli DNA probe does not hybridize with the DNA from formaldehyde-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs), as a class of noncoding RNA molecules with a circular structure exhibit high stability and spatiotemporal-specific expression, making them ideal cancer biomarkers for liquid biopsy. Herein, a new photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor for a highly sensitive circRNA assay in the whole blood of lung cancer patients was designed based on CRISPR/Cas13a-programmed Cu nanoclusters (Cu NCs) and a -scheme covalent organic framework/silver sulfide (T-COF/AgS) composite. This -scheme T-COF/AgS composite accelerates electron transfer and produces an excellent initial photocurrent.

Three water-soluble Mn(III)-porphyrin complexes with cationic pyridyl side groups bearing COOH- or OH-terminated carbon chains in the meta or para positions have been synthesized as probes for both magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and photodynamic therapy (PDT). The complexes , , and are highly water-soluble, and their relaxivities range between 10 and 15 mM s, at 20-80 MHz and 298 K, 2-3 times higher than that of commercial Gd(III)-based agents. The complexes containing carboxylate () or alcoholic () side chains in the para position are endowed with higher relaxivities and have also shown efficient photoinduced DNA cleavage and singlet oxygen (O) generation.

Critical to the success of CRISPR-based diagnostic assays is the selection of a diagnostic target highly specific to the organism of interest, a process often requiring iterative cycles of manual selection, optimisation, and redesign. Here we present PathoGD, a bioinformatic pipeline for rapid and high-throughput design of RPA primers and gRNAs for CRISPR-Cas12a-based pathogen detection. PathoGD is fully automated, leverages publicly available sequences and is scalable to large datasets, allowing rapid continuous monitoring and validation of primer/gRNA sets to ensure ongoing assay relevance.

Deoxynivalenol (DON) is one of the most harmful mycotoxins that poses great health threats to human and animals. Herein, a simple and sensitive magnetic beads-based fluorescent biosensor was successfully prepared for detection of DON in cereals. A stable double-stranded DNA (dsDNA, biotin-sDNA+FAM-cDNA/AP) was formed on the surface of streptavidin-coated magnetic beads (SMBs).

Plant viruses pose a significant threat to global agriculture and require efficient tools for their timely detection. We present AutoPVPrimer, an innovative pipeline that integrates artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to accelerate the development of plant virus primers. The pipeline uses Biopython to automatically retrieve different genomic sequences from the NCBI database to increase the robustness of the subsequent primer design.
