The response of a peroxidase-based optical biosensor was modelled digitally.A mathematical model of the optical biosensor is based on a system of non-linear reaction-diffusion equations. The modelling biosensor comprises two compartments, an enzyme layerand an outer diffusion layer. The digital simulation was carried out using finite differencetechnique. The influence of the substrate concentration as well as of the thickness of both theenzyme and diffusion layers on the biosensor response was investigated. Calculations showedcomplex kinetics of the biosensor response, especially at low concentrations of the peroxidaseand of the hydrogen peroxide.

Semiconductor magic-sized nanoclusters (MSCs) possess atomic-level compositional precision and ultrasmall dimensions, allowing accurate modulation of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) properties, essential for advanced bioanalytical applications. However, low intrinsic ECL intensity and poor stability in bipolar electrode (BPE)-ECL systems hinder their broader use. In this work, we addressed these limitations through doping and direct optical crosslinking strategies, achieving a 24-fold boost in the ECL signal and a fivefold stability increase for doped (CdS):Ag MSCs compared with original (CdS) MSCs.

With the increasing incidence of thyroid cancer worldwide and the increasing demand for surgery, the risk of parathyroid injury is also increasing, which will lead to postoperative hypoparathyroidism (HP) and hypocalcemia. In order to improve the quality of life of patients after surgery, there is an urgent need to develop a novel platform that can identify the parathyroid gland immediately during surgery. The parathyroid gland promotes the increase of blood calcium concentration by secreting parathyroid hormone (PTH).

Through a direct quantitative characterization of comparable waveguides formed from the two films, we find no observable autofluorescence for tantalum pentoxide waveguides. Our experimental sensitivity is limited by Raman scattering of the pump into our detection band and our measurements indicate that the autofluorescence of the tantalum pentoxide waveguides is more than 600 × smaller than that of silicon nitride waveguides.

This study employs a novel fiber optic biosensor based on S-tapered and waist extension techniques, as well as localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), to detect putrescine accurately. The gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are fixed on the fiber to excite LSPR.
