Heparin (Hep), widely used in clinics as an anticoagulant drug, has high degrees of heterogeneity and shares a similar disaccharide repeating unit with its GAG analogues. The development of reliable and convenient methods to discriminate Hep from its GAG analogues and detect trace GAG contaminants in Hep is meaningful for safe usage of Hep in clinics. Herein, five porphyrin-GO nanocomposites denoted as , , , , and were synthesized by assembling corresponding positively charged porphyrins onto the surface of GO. Controlled by a different number and position of the 4--methyl-pyridyl groups substituted at the porphyrins, these nanocomposites were determined to be cross-reactive toward Hep and other three commonly used GAGs including Chs, HA, and DS. A NIR sensor array was thus constructed using these nanocomposites for GAGs discrimination and Hep quality control through pattern-based recognition. HCA and LDA calculated results indicated that was powerful for discrimination of Hep and its GAG analogues in both PBS and even 10% serum media. Moreover, the sensor array was successfully applied for the reliable discrimination of trace GAG contaminants in Hep with 100% accuracy.

Benzylisoquinoline alkaloids are significant phyto-nutraceuticals with a bitter flavor. However, due to their complex structures, the sensing and identification of benzylisoquinoline alkaloids is challenging. Benzylisoquinoline alkaloids are commonly extracted from plants such as Coptidis Rhizoma (CR), while the adulteration and dyeing of CR are prevalent.

Retinomorphic systems that can see, recognize, and respond to real-time environmental information will extend the complexity and range of tasks that an exoskeleton robot can perform to better assist physically disabled people. However, the lack of ultrasensitive, reconfigurable, and large-scale integratable retinomorphic devices and advanced edge-processing algorithms makes it difficult to realize retinomorphic hardware. Here, we report the retinomorphic hardware prototype with a 4096-pixel perovskite image sensor array as core module to endow embodied intelligent vision functionalities.

We introduce a novel technique for enhancing the robustness of light-pulse atom interferometers against the pulse infidelities that typically limit their sensitivities. The technique uses quantum optimal control to favorably harness the multipath interference of the stray trajectories produced by imperfect atom-optics operations. We apply this method to a resonant atom interferometer and achieve thousandfold phase amplification, representing a 50-fold improvement over the performance observed without optimized control.

Optoelectronic devices require stable operation to detect repetitive visual information. In this study, endurable arrays based on heterojunction phototransistors composed of indium-gallium-zinc oxide (IGZO) with a low dark current and tin sulfide (SnS) capable of absorbing visible light are developed for image sensors. The tandem structure of IGZO/SnS/IGZO (ISI) enables stable operation under repetitive exposure to visible light by improving the transport ability of the photoexcited carriers through mitigated trap sites and their separation into each IGZO layer.

Achieving sensors that can sensitively and selectively quantify levels of analytes in complex biofluids such as blood remains a significant challenge. To address this, we synthesized an array of isolated carbon nanochannels on a flat gold electrode that function as molecular sieves to prevent protein fouling and eliminate the need for antifouling layers. Utilizing a two-step pulsed technique, a reductive pulse expels negative interferences and fouling molecules followed by an oxidative pulse that oxidizes glucose at the bottom of the channel and on the gold surface.
