Electronic address:

Article Synopsis
  • A new eco-friendly electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor using carbon quantum dots (CN QDs) was developed for highly sensitive detection of vitamin K (VK).
  • The sensor combined nickel-cobalt nanocages (NiCo NCs) with CN QDs, enhancing luminescent properties and allowing for efficient signal amplification when applied to a poly-L-cysteine film.
  • It demonstrated a detection range for VK between 1.0 × 10⁻⁸ to 5.0 × 10⁻⁴ mol/L, with a low limit of detection at 1.65 × 10⁻⁹ mol/L, and showed effective recoveries in food samples, indicating its practical application.

Introduction: Dl-3-n-butylphthalide (NBP), a small molecular compound extracted from celery seeds, has been shown to exhibit diverse pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and anti-apoptotic effects. Recent studies have highlighted its efficacy in treating various cardiovascular conditions, such as myocardial infarction, hypertrophy, heart failure, and cardiotoxicity. This study aimed to investigate whether NBP could alleviate cardiac dysfunction and injury following hemorrhage-induced cardiac arrest (HCA) in a porcine model and elucidate its potential mechanisms.
