A lateral flow immunochromatographic strip test was developed for rapid and sensitive on-site detection of hexoestrol (HES) residues in fish samples with colloidal gold labelling of the anti-HES monoclonal antibody. The strip is composed of a sample pad, a conjugate reagent pad, an absorbent pad and a test membrane containing a control line and a test line. The sensitivity (half inhibitory concentration, IC) of the strip in the detection of fish extract samples was confirmed to be 1.86 µg kg, and the limit of detection value was 0.62 µg kg. For intra-assay and inter-assay reproducibility, recoveries of HES-spiked samples ranged from 86.3% to 92.3% and 85.8% to 93.4%, coefficients of variation were 2.91-4.64% and 4.24-5.17%, respectively. High-performance liquid chromatography was employed to confirm the performance of the strip. The strip test takes less than 10 min, and thus provides a repaid method for on-site detection of HES residues.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of the ceramic bonding to cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) alloys fabricated by casting, milling, and additive manufacturing, compared with zirconia and nickel-chromium. One hundred specimens (N = 100), prepared with the dimensions of 25 × 3 × 0.5 mm, were assigned to five groups (n = 20): presintered milled Co-Cr (Group M), additively manufactured Co-Cr (Group SLM), cast Co-Cr (Group C), presintered zirconia (Group Zi), and cast Ni-Cr (Group Ni).

Urinary catheters serve as critical medical devices in clinical practice. However, the currently used urinary catheters lack efficient antibacterial and lubricating properties, often leading to discomfort with patients and even severe urinary infections. Herein, a new strategy of supramolecular assembly and disassembly of chitosan (Cs) is developed that enables efficient antibacterial lubricous and biodegradable hydrogel urinary catheters.

Mercury is considered to be one of the most typical and toxic elements of heavy metals in the environment, threatening human health even at very low level. For this reason, we developed a new fluorescence-enhanced probe RTQ based on resazurin dye, which realizes the selective detection of Hg by using carbonothioate group as the recognition receptor. Probe RTQ can quantitatively assay Hg ranging from 0-0.

Tuberculosis (TB) is the second deadliest infectious disease worldwide. Current TB diagnostics utilize sputum samples, which are difficult to obtain, and sample processing is time-consuming and difficult. This study developed an integrated diagnostic platform for the rapid visual detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in breath samples at the point-of-care (POC), especially in resource-limited settings.
