Block copolymer (BCP) microparticles, which exhibit rapid change of morphology and physicochemical property in response to external stimuli, represent a promising avenue for the development of programmable smart materials. Among the methods available for generating BCP microparticles with adjustable morphologies, the confined assembly of BCPs within emulsions has emerged as a particularly facile and versatile approach. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the role of responsive surfactants in modulating interfacial interactions at the oil-water interface, which facilitates controlled BCP microparticle morphology.

Single-molecule sequencing technology, a novel method for gene sequencing, utilizes nano-sized materials to detect electrical and fluorescent signals. Compared to traditional Sanger sequencing and next-generation sequencing technologies, it offers significant advantages, including ultra-long read lengths, rapid sequencing, and the absence of amplification steps, making it widely applicable across various fields. By examining the development and components of single-molecule sequencing technology, it becomes clear that its unique characteristics provide new opportunities for advancing metrological traceability.

Establishing the protein-protein interaction network sheds light on functional genomics studies by providing insights from known counterparts. However, the rice interactome has barely been studied due to the lack of massive, reliable, and cost-effective methodologies. Here, the development of a barcode-indexed PCR coupled with HiFi long-read sequencing pipeline (BIP-seq) is reported for high throughput Protein Protein Interaction (PPI)identification.

The bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) technique is a powerful tool for visualizing protein-protein interactions in vivo. It involves genetically fused nonfluorescent fragments of green fluorescent protein (GFP) or its variants to the target proteins of interest. When these proteins interact, the GFP fragments come together, resulting in the reconstitution of a functional fluorescent protein complex that can be observed using fluorescence microscopy.

The therapeutic diagnosis of liver diseases has garnered significant interest within the medical community. In recent years, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have emerged as crucial nanocarriers for the treatment of liver ailments. Their remarkable diagnostic capabilities enable them to be used in techniques such as high-throughput mass spectrometry (MS), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging, photoacoustic imaging (PAI), and ultrasonography (US), attracting considerable attention.
