AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
It is known that As and Se act as metabolic antagonists. Hence, an improvement in assessing As-related health risks can be achieved by simultaneous quantitative measurements of both As and Se levels in the human body. In this paper, the simultaneous detection of trace concentrations of As and Se in polyester resin skin phantoms was demonstrated. The experiments were performed with a commercial miniature X-ray tube and silicon PiN detector X-ray fluorescence (XRF) system. No significant overlap between the K(alpha) peaks of the two elements was observed. Minimum detection limits of (1.05+/-0.02) microg As g(-1) and (0.88+/-0.02) microg Se g(-1) were found.

Organotin compounds (OTs) used to be the most widely used biocide in antifouling paint systems, but the International Maritime Organization (IMO) banned them because of their high environmental toxicity to non-target organisms. Currently, at least 25 active ingredients are being employed as biocides in antifouling paint formulations. In the present study, silicone rubber-based passive sampling was used to determine the freely dissolved concentrations (C) of 6 OTs and 4 booster biocides in the water column at the entrance of Santos Port's main navigation channel, the largest Port of South America (southeastern Brazil).

Accurately monitoring the content of Cu and Hg in real samples and biological systems is of great significance in ensuring food safety and human health. Therefore, developing efficient methods for simultaneously detecting Cu and Hg is of great significance in living organisms and real samples. In this work, a bifunctional ratiometric and colorimetric fluorescent bio-sensor DPT-1, was designed and synthesized using triphenylamine to specifically and concurrently detect Cu and Hg exhibited varying degrees of fluorescence quenching through "turn-off" fluorescence.

A novel dual-parameter optical fiber biosensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for simultaneous measurement of urea and uric acid concentrations is proposed in this paper. Based on the principle of positive and negative electric combination, ZnO nanoparticles is selected as the matrix for immobilizing urease and uricase with selective recognition ability, which can also be used as a sensitizing material to increase the refractive index detection sensitivity of SPR by 22%. Then, Nafion ion exchange membrane was introduced to wrap the urea sensing area to avoid crosstalk caused by the overlap of adjacent sensing areas.
