In this study, Gold-microrods (AuMRs), Pd-nanoparticles (PdNPs), and Polyaniline (PANI) nanocomposite-interface was fabricated on the screen-printed carbon-microelectrode (SPE). Each layer of the interface was characterised using field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The fabricated SPE/AuMRs/PdNPs/PANI interface demonstrated the highest electronic current and showed excellent peroxidase-mimic towards HO using chronoamperometry (CA). Furthermore, the SPE/AuMRs/PdNPs/PANI interface was utilised for the construction of a highly sensitive label-free electrochemical biosensor for the detection of Tpm in seafood samples. Label-free electrochemical detection of the Tpm was performed using both CA and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) techniques. Preliminary data showed that both methods could detect Tpm as low as 0.01 pg/mL. Moreover, the developed biosensor for the detection of Tpm demonstrated excellent selectivity, high reproducibility and longer stability with an evident potential to detect Tpm in real seafood samples.

Assessment of airborne bacteria from a public health institution in Mexico City.

PLOS Glob Public Health

November 2024

Laboratorio de Microbiología Clínica, Instituto Nacional de Rehabilitación Luis Guillermo Ibarra Ibarra, Mexico City, México.

In this work, the composition of the bacterial community in the air of a hospital in Mexico City was evaluated using metabarcoding and proteomics approaches, along with the assessment of environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and suspended particles. Two types of aerobiological samplers were used: Andersen One-Stage Viable Particle Sampler (AVPS) and Coriolis μ sampler (CμS-Sampler). Sampling was performed in four areas of the hospital: Floor 1 (F1), Floor 2 (F2), and Emergency Unit (EU), as well as outdoors (OH).

A Novel bioanalytical detector based on Poly(Diaquabis(1,10-phenanthroline copper (II) Iodide) (poly([Cu(HO)P]I)/GCE) has been fabricated by potentiodynamic polymerization of [Cu(HO)P]I. The synthesized complex and the fabricated electrodes showed a promising electrocatalytic behavior towards the electrooxidation of Trimethoprim (TPM). Based on the regression coefficient value of scan rate with peak current and square root of peak current, the oxidation of TMP at poly([Cu(HO)P]I)/GCE was dominated by diffusion.

Applying the Health Belief Model to cervical cancer screening uptake among women in Ethiopia: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

BMC Cancer

October 2024

Department of Health Promotion and Health Behavior, School of Public Health, College of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Gondar, Po. Box 196, Gondar, Ethiopia.

Article Synopsis
  • Cervical cancer is a significant health issue in Ethiopia, with a screening uptake of only 21% among eligible women, influenced by factors like education, perceived risk, and barriers to access.
  • The review utilized the Health Belief Model to evaluate the screening factors, finding that knowledge and attitudes greatly impact screening participation.
  • It's suggested that implementing HBM-based strategies could improve cervical cancer screening rates, thereby helping to reduce mortality and incidence in the region.
