A triple recognition voltammetric method for the determination of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is described. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and magnetic nanoparticles (MagNPs), sized 26 and 310 nm, respectively, were synthesized and characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), FT-IR, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and Z-potential measurements. Antibody-modified MagNPs and methylene blue-labeled aptamer (Apt-MB)-modified AuNPs were used as an identifier, a signal reporter, and an amplifier, respectively. In the presence of BNP, the magnetic gold nanocomposite is formed through cascade conjugation via specific interaction. It then hybridized with complementary DNA (cDNA) on the interface, thereby amplifying the current signal of Apt-MB and increasing the selectivity of the immunoassay. Results obtained demonstrate the development of a highly selective method with a detection limit of 0.56 pg mL and a linear response over the concentration range 1-10,000 pg mL. The standard deviation of the method is < 6% while the recovery ranged from 92.2 to 104.2%. Graphical abstract Schematic representation of triple recognition electrochemical immunosensor based on two functionalized nanoparticles (antibody-modified magnetic nanoparticle (MNP-Ab) and aptamer-modified gold nanoparticle (AuNPs-Apt)) for determination of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP).

Multiple myeloma is a hematologic malignancy characterized by the proliferation of abnormal plasma cells in the bone marrow. Despite therapeutic advancements, there remains a critical need for reliable, noninvasive methods to monitor multiple myeloma. Circulating plasma cells (CPCs) in peripheral blood are robust and independent prognostic markers, but their detection is challenging due to their low abundance.

Chemical modification of naturally derived glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) expands their potential utility for applications in soft tissue repair and regenerative medicine. Here we report the preparation of a novel crosslinked chondroitin sulfate (~200 to 2000 kilodaltons) that is both soluble in aqueous solution and microfilterable. We refer to these materials as "SuperGAGs.

Cardiac involvement in cancer is increasingly important in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients. A thorough cardiovascular evaluation using multimodal imaging is crucial to assess any direct cardiac involvement from oncological disease progression and to determine the cardiovascular risk of patients undergoing oncological therapies. Early detection of cardiac dysfunction, particularly due to cardiotoxicity from chemotherapy or radiotherapy, is essential to establish the disease's overall prognostic impact.

Microbial contamination is an important factor threatening the safety of Chinese medicine preparations, and microfluidic detection methods have demonstrated excellent advantages in the application of rapid bacterial detection. In our study, a novel optical biosensor was developed for the rapid and sensitive detection of in traditional Chinese medicine on a microfluidic chip. Immune gold@platinum nanocatalysts (Au@PtNCs) were utilized for specific bacterial labeling, while magnetic nano-beads (MNBs) with a novel high-gradient magnetic field were employed for the specific capture of bacteria.
