Tobacco bacterial wilt is one of the most devastating soil-borne diseases in tobacco-producing regions worldwide. It is often responsible for significant economic losses during tobacco production. A rapid, specific, and high-throughput on-site detection method is important for plant disease management. In this study, monoclonal antibody 3H3 and polyclonal antibody 0344 specific for Ralstonia solanacearum were used to prepare a colloidal gold-based immunochromatographic test strip (ITS). Under optimal conditions, the detection limit of the ITS was 10 CFU/mL. The ITS was able to detect different R. solanacearum strains collected from Shandong, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan provinces in China. Moreover, the ITS was highly specific for R. solanacearum, with no cross-reactivity with Alternaria alternata (Fries) Keissler, Pseudomonas syringae pv. angulata, and P. syringae pv. tabaci. Furthermore, R. solanacearum-spiked tobacco leaves and soil were used to evaluate the matrix interference of the developed ITS, which indicated the test strip was unaffected by leaf size or soil abundance.

As a zoonotic virus, highly sensitive detection of monkeypox virus is crucial for its prevention and control due to its rapid increase in cases worldwide and the extremely high risk of virus transmission. In this paper, based on the principle of antigen-antibody specific recognition, an ultrasensitive resonance Raman biosensing probe was prepared using a molecule with the bifunctionality of resonance Raman effect and capturing antibody; and with the strong affinity of the biotin-streptavidin (Bio-SA) system, Bio-antibody and SA test strips were prepared. To match the T-line of the test strip, a portable Raman instrument with a strip-shaped spot was designed.

The detection of highly toxic chemicals such as phosgene is crucial for addressing the severe threats to human health and public safety posed by terrorist attacks and industrial mishaps. However, timely and precise monitoring of phosgene at a low cost remains a significant challenge. This work is the first to report a novel fluorescent system based on the Intramolecular Charge Transfer (ICT) effect, which can rapidly detect phosgene in both solution and gas phases with high sensitivity by integrating a benzo[1,2-b:6,5-b']dithiophene-4,5-diamine (BDTA) probe.

Large-scale reforestation is promoted as an important strategy to mitigate climate change and biodiversity loss. A persistent challenge for efforts to restore ecosystems at scale is how to accelerate ecological processes, particularly natural regeneration. Yet, despite being recognized as an important barrier to the recovery of diverse plant communities in tropical agricultural landscapes, the impacts of dispersal limitation on natural regeneration in secondary forests-and especially how this changes as these forests grow older-are still poorly studied.

Background: Total-body (TB) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is one of the most promising medical diagnostics modalities, opening new perspectives for personalized medicine, low-dose imaging, multi-organ dynamic imaging or kinetic modeling. The high sensitivity provided by total-body technology can be advantageous for novel tomography methods like positronium imaging, demanding the registration of triple coincidences. Currently, state-of-the-art PET scanners use inorganic scintillators.
