The fabrication, characterization and analytical performance were investigated for a phenol biosensor based on the covalent bonding of tyrosinase (TYR) onto a graphene oxide (GO)-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) via glutaraldehyde (GA). The surface morphology of the modified electrode was studied by atomic force microscope (AFM) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The fabricated TYR/GA/GO/GCE biosensor showed very good stability, reproducibility, sensitivity and practical usage. The catechol biosensor exhibited a wide sensing linear range from 5×10M to 5×10M, a lower detection limit of 3×10M, a current maximum (I) of 65.8μA and an apparent Michaelis constant (K) of 169.9μM.

Background: Patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer (BC) can be treated with endocrine therapy targeting ER, however, metastatic recurrence occurs in 25% of the patients who have initially been treated. Secreted proteins from tumors play important roles in cancer metastasis but previous methods for isolating secretory proteins had limitations in identifying novel targets.
Methods: We applied an in situ secretory protein labeling technique using TurboID to analyze secretome from tamoxifen-resistant (TAMR) BC.

Background: Glycogen storage disease (GSD) Ia is an ultra-rare inherited disorder of carbohydrate metabolism. Patients often present in the first months of life with fasting hypoketotic hypoglycemia and hepatomegaly. The diagnosis of GSD Ia relies on a combination of different biomarkers, mostly routine clinical chemical markers and subsequent genetic confirmation.

Background: The early mortality of trauma patients, mainly from hemorrhagic shock, raises interest in detecting the presence of non-exteriorized bleeding. Intra-hospital EFAST (Extended Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma) has demonstrated its utility in the assessment and management of severe trauma patients (STP). However, there is a lack of data regarding the diagnostic performance of prehospital EFAST (pEFAST).

This research investigates the pulp and paper industry's transition to sustainability by valorizing unused roadside and natural grasses for paper production. Large-scale production from residual grass poses multifaceted challenges, requiring collaboration across stakeholders, from biomass collection to manufacturing. To understand key drivers and barriers within this complex system, experts from various fields, including local farmers, researchers, policymakers, and industry executives were interviewed, leading to the development of a Fuzzy Cognitive Map (FCM).

Optogenetics is a valuable tool for studying the mechanisms of neurological diseases and is now being developed for therapeutic applications. In rodents and macaques, improved channelrhodopsins have been applied to achieve transcranial optogenetic stimulation. While transcranial photoexcitation of neurons has been achieved, noninvasive optogenetic inhibition for treating hyperexcitability-induced neurological disorders has remained elusive.
