In the present paper, silver colloid films prepared by self-assembly method were used as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active substrates to achieve trace detection of antibiotics in water. Silver colloids were prepared using the microwave heating method, and silver colloids films were prepared with self-assembly method. The enhancement of sliver colloid films to antibiotics was analysed by changing the pH value of silver colloid and times of films. Significant effects of pH value on silver colloid films were observed. And the silver colloid films with five times, prepared by silver colloids with pH 4 had the best enhancement factor. They were used as SERS active substrates to detect three antibiotics (chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, enrofloxacin). The experimental limits of detection were 120, 15, 120 nmol x L(-1), respectively. These results show that such substrate has a very high sensitivity and application value, and might be able to be used for trace detection of antibiotics in aquiculture.

The widespread use of silver nanoparticles in many industries is increasing every year. Along with this use, there is growing concern about the potential unintentional exposure of human and animal organisms to these nanomaterials. It has been shown that AgNPs have the ability to penetrate organisms and can have harmful effects on cells and organs in the body.

Article Synopsis
- Melanoma is a serious disease that requires new treatment options, and Nowata110 has shown promising results in both treating plantar warts and showing anti-cancer effects in previous studies using specific cervical cancer models.
- The study used male and female mice, both immunocompetent and immunodeficient, to test the effectiveness of Nowata110 on implanted murine melanoma cells, with treatment given either intravenously or directly into the tumor.
- Results indicated that Nowata110 reduced tumor growth significantly in both types of mice, with the most notable efficacy seen in immunocompetent mice, leading to the suggestion that further clinical studies should be conducted for human melanoma.

Background/aim: Cervical cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in women worldwide. Nearly all cases of cervical cancer are due to infection with human papillomavirus (HPV). Nowarta110 has shown breakthrough therapeutic efficacy in phase II clinical study against plantar warts, with no reported side effects.

Detergents and disinfectants for dairy industry must meet a variety of characteristics, including low toxicity, high antibacterial activity, and excellent rinsing of pollutants from working surfaces. This work presents an innovative detergent-disinfectant agent based on whey mineralizate and silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), which allows reducing production costs and ensuring high cleanliness of treated surfaces compared to analogues. For this purpose, a method for obtaining sols of Ag NPs stabilized with didecyldimethylammonium bromide (Ag NPs-DDAB) was developed and optimized using neural network algorithms.
