Adsorption of tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) onto hydrogen terminated, n-type silicon-on-insulator is shown to cause significant depletion of majority carriers. Employing an ambient pseudo-MOSFET, ppm levels of TCNE vapour rapidly decrease the n-channel saturation current by at least two orders of magnitude. Covalent passivation with a decyl monolayer improves the reversibility of the response while only slightly decreasing the sensitivity.

Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) catalyzes heme degradation on the consumption of NADPH and molecular oxygen. As an inducible enzyme, HO-1 is highly induced in various disease states, including cancer. Currently, two fluorescent probes for HO-1 have been designed based on the catalytic activity of HO-1, in which the probes serve as a substrate, so NADPH is required to enable the detection.

Unlabelled: Tongue swab (TS) sampling combined with quantitative PCR (qPCR) to detect (MTB) DNA is a promising alternative to sputum testing for tuberculosis (TB) diagnosis. In prior studies, the sensitivity of tongue swabbing has usually been lower than sputum. In this study, we evaluated two strategies to improve sensitivity.

Visual, sensitive, and selective detection of carcinogenic substances is highly desired in portable health protection and practical medicine production. However, achieving this goal presents significant challenges with the traditional single-mode sensors reported so far, as they have limited sensing mechanisms and provide only a single output signal. Here, we report an effective optical and electrical dual-mode sensor for the visual, sensitive, and selective detection of -nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA), a typical volatile carcinogenic substance, leveraging the synergy of ionic liquid-doped liquid crystals (IL-LC).

The need for accurate and simultaneous diagnosis of multiple respiratory infectious diseases has become increasingly critical due to ongoing viral mutations and the similarity of symptoms among various viruses. Here, we have advanced our detection capabilities by developing a multiplex lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) platform that integrates oligonucleotides and antibodies, enabling the simultaneous detection of five respiratory viruses: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), Influenza A (FluA), Influenza B (FluB), Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and Adenovirus (ADV), on a single membrane. By applying the oligonucleotide and antibody-conjugated AuNPs, the platform enables highly sensitive and specific detection.
