The potentialities of bismuth-sulfite-agar (BSA) medium as a differentiating medium for the isolation of Y. enterocolitica and the related species have been under study. Y. enterocolitica colonies in BSA had a characteristic appearance and consistency. 7 Y. enterocolitica and 2 Y. frederiksenii strains have been isolated in 4.7% of various environmental specimens studied with the use of the BSA medium. BSA appears to be a promising medium for the isolation of Yersinia from the clinical material as well, since this medium is widely used at bacteriologic laboratories for the isolation of Salmonellae.

Reproductive technologies, including sperm cryopreservation, offer conservationists enhanced capacity to genetically manage populations and improve the outcomes of conservation breeding programs (CBPs). Despite this potential, the post-thaw quality of amphibian sperm is highly variable following cryopreservation, and research focused on protocol refinement is needed. The aim of this study was twofold: (1) to investigate the effect of the addition of bovine serum albumin (BSA) to the cryopreservation medium (pre-freeze), and (2) the effect of the addition of caffeine to the activation medium (post-thaw), on post-thaw sperm characteristics in the critically endangered Booroolong frog ().

Development of Citric-Acid-Modified Cellulose Monolith for Enriching Glycopeptides.

Anal Chem

January 2025

Department of Applied Chemistry, Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka University, Suita 565-0871, Japan.

Prior to mass spectrometry (MS) analysis, pretreatment of low-abundance glycopeptides is vital for identifying protein glycosylation. In this study, we fabricated an environmentally friendly citric-acid-modified cellulose monolith (CCM) characterized by a coral-like porous structure and high-density hydrophilic groups using a thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) method. The CCM production leverages biomass resources, specifically cellulose and citric acid, utilizing TIPS to synthesize continuous porous materials through a straightforward heating and cooling process of polymer solutions.

To enhance the biomarker diagnostics sensitivity and selectivity of human papillomavirus type 16 oncoprotein E7 (HPV16 E7) in serum, a label/enzyme-free electrochemical detection platform was developed. This platform featured a type of "Super-turn-off" nanobiosensor monitored through differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). It integrated the magnetic self-assembly property of the α-FeO/FeO@Au/Sub/BSA signal transport nano-medium with the high specificity of CRISPR/Cas14a and the amplification capability of the bipedal walker (DNA walker composed of two ssDNA strands), resulting in the enhanced specificity and anti-interference performance while remaining stable at 4 °C for over 30 days.

Three stable oxidovanadium(IV) [VOL] complexes (1-3) were synthesized through the incorporation of unsymmetrical salen ligands (HL). All the ligands are synthesized, and their vanadium compounds were thoroughly characterized by CHNS analysis, various spectroscopy methods (IR, UV-Vis, NMR spectroscopy), and HR-ESI-MS. The structures of 1-3 were validated through the single-crystal X-ray analysis.

This paper describes the synthesis of CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles via a simple ultrasonic-assisted co-precipitation method and their functionalization with thiol groups using (3-Mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (MPTS) as the functionalizing agent. The use of ultrasonic energy not only serves as a green energy source but also reduces the reaction time fivefold compared to conventional methods. The synthesized CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles were characterized for their surface and internal properties using instrumental techniques such as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM).
