Because early detection is the first step in successful therapy, increasing the sensitivity of detection systems has always been considered as one of the major trends in development of these technologies. Therefore, we have fabricated a high-performance poly-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) complex and analyzed it in different formats of immunodetection systems. To construct this complex, dextran-aldehyde was prepared by oxidation of dextran in the presence of sodium periodate. Activated polymer was then coupled to lysine amino acids and accomplishment of the process was evaluated with trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid. Following conjugation of HRP to free amino groups of lysine, the stage's accuracy and the rate of conjugation were demonstrated by SDS-PAGE. Then, conjugation of poly-HRP complex to streptavidin by biotin was performed. The results of a series of experiments confirmed the complete synthesis of streptavidin-poly-HRP complex by this procedure. Finally, we compared our harvested complex with the golden standard complex available for ELISA and immunohistochemistry (IHC). The results showed the high efficiency of the synthesized complex. Consequently, this complex can be applicable in highly sensitive detection technologies. Conjugating this complex to any antibody by using biotin-streptavidin bridging and preparing poly-HRP-labeled antibodies will be a valuable multifold approach to increase the sensitivity of detection systems, which can be applicable in ELISA, immunocytochemistry, and IHC methods.

Department of Management and Marketing, Notre Dame University Louaize, Zouk Mosbeh, Lebanon.
Purpose: This study aims to examine the relationships between organizational culture, employee loyalty, trust and job satisfaction within the Lebanese health-care sector. It addresses the critical need to improve employee retention and organizational performance in a context marked by economic instability and political uncertainty. By analyzing data from 270 health-care professionals, the study aims to explore how different aspects of organizational culture - such as transparency, supportiveness and ethical leadership - affect employee trust and satisfaction.

Asymmetric cell division (ACD) allows daughter cells of a polarized mother to acquire different developmental fates. In , the Wnt/β-catenin Asymmetry (WβA) pathway regulates many embryonic and larval ACDs; here, a Wnt gradient induces an asymmetric distribution of Wnt signaling components within the dividing mother cell. One terminal nuclear effector of the WβA pathway is the transcriptional activator SYS-1/β-catenin.

In this work, we have explored the metal ion sensing properties of two bisbenzimidazole-based fluorescent probes, that differ in their conformational flexibility, in an aqueous medium. The compound with a flexible methyl spacer (1) experienced blue shifts in its absorption and emission maxima (along with a turn-off response) upon the addition of Hg ions. On the contrary, the compound with a relatively rigid structure (2) showed red shifts in both its absorption and emission maxima (along with a turn-off response) when treated with Hg under similar conditions.
