Despite the didactic importance of a free particle in quantum mechanics, its coherent state analysis has long been untouched. It is only recently that it has been noticed and studied in the semiclassical domain. While the previously known solutions, reported by Bagrov et al. for a free particle, are described using the linear non-Hermitian invariant operator, we show in this work that the general solution of the Schrödinger equation can also be naturally derived using a simpler method based on an Hermitian linear invariant operator. According to this, an exact Gaussian wave function that corresponds to a coherent state solution is obtained. An interpretation for such general quantum solution designated within the Lewis-Riesenfeld framework is provided and, further, quantum-classical correspondence principle for the system is reexamined.

This study presented the well stable W1/O/W2 double emulsions stabilized by food-grade nanoparticles. Firstly, the nanoparticles were prepared based on soybean protein isolate and Hohenbuehelia serotina polysaccharides by physical effects, which had the elliptical morphology and the average particle size of 639.96 nm.

The applications of resveratrol (RES) and puerarin (PUE) with notable physiological functions are greatly limited in functional food and pharmaceutical industries due to their poor water solubility and chemical instability. Accordingly, co-loading of RES and PUE into chitosan-based nanoparticles (NPs) is performed here by an anti-solvent method to improve their bioavailability. The fabricated NPs at 8:1 mass ratio of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) to chitosan hydrochloride (CHC) with the particle size of 375.

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.

Organ-on-a-chip (OOC) devices mimic human organs, which can be used for many different applications, including drug development, environmental toxicology, disease models, and physiological assessment. Image data acquisition and analysis from these chips are crucial for advancing research in the field. In this study, we propose a label-free morphology imaging platform compatible with the small airway-on-a-chip system.

Free-standing capillary microfluidic channels were directly printed over printed electrodes using a particle/polymer mixture to fabricate microfluidic-electrochemical devices on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films. Printed devices with no electrode modification were demonstrated to have the lowest limit of detection (LOD) of 7 μM for sensing glucose. The study shows that both a low polymer concentration in the mixture for printing the microfluidic channels and surface modification of the printed microfluidic channels using 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane can substantially boost the device's performance.
