Biosensing of protein adsorption with metal mesh device (MMD) was investigated by computational calculations and experiments. Electromagnetic field computation was carried out with a single unit cell of MMD. Equivalent circuit model of MMD on the single unit cell was assumed, and the biosensing with MMD was analyzed in detail by computational calculation and experimental measurements. The dip frequency of MMD was shifted by adsorption of protein on MMD. The shift of dip frequency of MMD was proportional to the amount of protein adsorption. The sensitivity of MMD biosensing was dependent on the microstructure of MMD, and proportional to the square of the dip frequency. The refinement of MMD structure can improve the sensitivity of protein detection.

Background And Objectives: The Royal Australian College of General Practice recommends that all women contemplating pregnancy or in early pregnancy should be offered reproductive genetic carrier screening (RGCS). In November 2023, a new Medicare item number was introduced for RGCS to detect cystic fibrosis (CF), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and fragile X syndrome (FXS) carrier status. The role of general practice in offering RGCS is recognised as being of crucial importance, but only a minority of general practitioners (GPs) are offering such screening.

Gene expression is controlled by dynamic localization of thousands of regulatory proteins to precise genomic regions. Understanding this cell type-specific process has been a longstanding goal yet remains challenging because DNA-protein mapping methods generally study one protein at a time. Here, to address this, we developed chromatin immunoprecipitation done in parallel (ChIP-DIP) to generate genome-wide maps of hundreds of diverse regulatory proteins in a single experiment.

The optical, photoluminescence, and electrical properties of Poly(Z)-PTI and Poly(E)-PTI, two Poly-Pyrrol-Thiazol-Imine polymers with comparable chemical structures but distinct configurations, were examined. Using the dip-casting method, polymer films were deposited on ITO substrates. UV-VIS spectroscopy revealed that both polymers diverged between 500 and 800 nm, showing the impact of molecular arrangement, but showed similar absorption behavior for wavelengths shorter than 500 nm.
