The accurate and sensitive detection of prostate specific antigen (PSA) is vital for the early diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To this end, an unlabeled fluorescent aptasensor was constructed by using a novel Compound B {1,1'-(1,4-phenylene) bis(3-ethyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium) iodide} with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) activity as a fluorescence signal and NH-FeO particle as an adsorption platform. Compound B could combine with prostate specific antigen aptamers (PSA-Apt) to form a PSA-Apt/B complex, which further generated the AIE effect.

Chemical repellents play a crucial role in personal protection, serving as essential elements in reducing the transmission of vector-borne diseases. A biorational perspective that extends beyond the olfactory system as the classical target may be a promising direction to move. The taste system provides reliable information regarding food quality, helping animals to discriminate between nutritious and potentially harmful food sources, often associated with a bitter taste.

University Clinic for Swine, Department for Farm Animals and Veterinary Public Health, University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna, Vienna, Austria.

Background: Stomoxys calcitrans, the stable fly, occurs in pig producing countries worldwide. While in cattle the impact of this blood sucking insect is quite well described, its role in pig production is poorly investigated. Here we describe a case of a massive stable fly overpopulation in the gestation unit of a piglet producing farm in Austria that resulted in bleeding skin lesions in bitten sows.
