A ground-breaking graphene-based biosensor designed for label-free detection of immunoglobulin M (IgM) achieving a remarkable concentration of 100 zeptomolar (10 m), is reported. The sensor is a two-terminal device and incorporates a millimeter-wide gold interface, bio-functionalized with ≈10 anti-IgM antibodies and capacitively coupled to a bare graphene electrode through a water-soaked paper strip. In this configuration, few affinity binding events trigger a collective electrostatic reorganization of the protein layer, leading to an extended surface potential (SP) shift of the biofunctionalized Au surface.

Super-resolution imaging of cell metabolism is hindered by the incompatibility of small metabolites with fluorescent dyes and the limited resolution of imaging mass spectrometry. We present ultrasensitive reweighted visible stimulated Raman scattering (URV-SRS), a label-free vibrational imaging technique for multiplexed nanoscopy of intracellular metabolites. We developed a visible SRS microscope with extensive pulse chirping to improve the detection limit to ~4,000 molecules and introduced a self-supervised multi-agent denoiser to suppress non-independent noise in SRS by over 7.

A novel approach to developing lateral flow assays (LFAs) for the detection of CYFRA 21-1 (cytokeratin 19 fragment, a molecular biomarker for epithelial-origin cancers) is proposed. Magnetic bioconjugates (MBCs) were employed in combination with advanced optical and magnetic tools to optimize assay conditions. The approach integrates such techniques as label-free spectral-phase interferometry, colorimetric detection, and ultrasensitive magnetometry using the magnetic particle quantification (MPQ) technique.

High sensitivity and specificity in microRNA detection are of great significance for early cancer screening. This study employed a pre-assembled bulb-shaped G-quadruplex signal unit (G4MB) as a novel and efficient label-free probe. The products amplified by the miRNA-155-targeted exponential amplification reaction (EXPAR) activated the trans-cleavage activity of CRISPR/Cas12a, disrupting the G4MB structure to achieve dual-channel fluorescence/colorimetric (FL/CM) inverse signal output.

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are widely applied in the treatment of various clinical diseases and in the field of medical aesthetics. However, MSCs exhibit greater heterogeneity limited stability, and more complex molecular and mechanistic characteristics compared to conventional drugs, making rapid and precise monitoring more challenging.
Methods: Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is an ultrasensitive, tractable and low-cost fingerprinting technique capable of identifying a wide range of molecules related to biological processes.
