Calibration of ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) is cumbersome, time-consuming, and constitutes a significant limitation for the development of single-use and wearable disposable sensors. To address this problem, we have studied the effect of ion-selective membrane solvent on ISE reproducibility by comparing tetrahydrofuran (THF) (a typical solvent for membrane preparation) and cyclohexanone. In addition, a single-step integration of semiconducting/transducer polymer poly(3-octylthiophene) (POT) with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) into the paper-based ISEs (PBISEs) substrate was introduced. PBISEs for potassium and sodium ions were developed, and these ISEs present outstanding sensor performance and high potential reproducibility, as low as ±1.0 mV ( = 3).

By integrating iron-cobalt squarate bimetallic metal-organic framework (Fe-Co-SqBMoF) based smart material (SM) with functional DNA (fDNA), we designed a target responsive fDNA@Fe-Co-SqBMoF bioelectrode that exhibits recognition induced switchable response to serve as a reagentless single step electrochemical apta-switch (REA). The construct takes advantage of fDNA ability to bind and concentrate target on the receptor interface, while Fe-Co-SqBMoF@SM multifeatures to serve as an immobilization matrix and a signal generating electrochemical switch. Fe-Co-SqBMoF was introduced to prepare a redox active pencil graphite electrode (PGE), while fDNA (aptamer) was decorated on the receptor PGE to impart specificity and selectivity.

Strategic design and development of nanomaterials-based detection platforms specific to critical biomarkers like bilirubin holds immense promise for revolutionizing early disease detection. Bilirubin (BR) plays a pivotal role as a biomarker for liver function, making accurate and timely detection of BR crucial for diagnosing and monitoring of liver diseases. In this work, we synthesized blue light emitting graphene quantum dots (GQDs) via a single step pyrolysis method, which exhibited excellent photostability and biocompatibility.

The development of multi-omics has increased the likelihood of further improving genomic prediction (GP) of complex traits. Gene expression data can directly reflect the genotype effect, and thus, they are widely used for GP. Generally, the gene expression data are integrated into multiple random effect models as independent data layers or used to replace genotype data for genomic prediction.

We calculate the two-loop heavy quarkonium Hamiltonian within potential-nonrelativistic-QCD effective field theory in the nonannihilation channel. This calculation represents the first nontrivial step toward determining the N^{4}LO Hamiltonian in the weak coupling regime. The large amount of computation is systematically handled by employing the β expansion, differential equations for master integrals, and adopting a single-step matching procedure, in contrast to the conventional two-step approach.

Raman spectroscopy enables label-free clinical diagnosis in a single step. However, identifying an individual carrying a specific disease from people with a multi-disease background is challenging. To address this, we developed a Raman spectral implicit feature augmentation with a Raman Intersection, Union, and Subtraction augmentation strategy (RIUS).
