Sunset yellow (SY) is widely used as food colorant. Excess and illegal use of SY could pose potential health risk. Quantum dots have been successfully used in biological research due to the high photoluminescence and high resistance to photobleaching. To analyze SY efficiently, quantum dot-linked immunosorbent assay (QLISA) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ic-ELISA) were developed on the basis of generated monoclonal antibody. A carboxyl group was introduced to SY and coupled with carrier proteins to synthesize artificial antigen. Under the optimal conditions, inhibitory concentrations (IC) of SY were 1.9 ng/mL (ic-ELISA) and 3.4 ng/mL (QLISA); the limits of detection (LODs) were 0.2 ng/mL (ic-ELISA) and 1.0 ng/mL (QLISA), respectively. Cross-reactivities of the mAb toward eight kinds of analogues were<0.01%. The recovery rates in spiked foods and beverages were 75.6%∼120.1% (ic-ELISA) and 74.0%∼114.1% (QLISA), respectively.

Previous studies highlighting the pivotal function of the S100A8 protein have shown that inflammation and vascular endothelial harm play a major role in deep vein thrombosis (DVT) development, as evidenced by earlier studies highlighting the pivotal function of the S100 calcium-binding protein A8 (S100A8). Therefore, we aimed to establish a connection between S100A8 and DVT and investigate the role of S100A8 in DVT development. Blood specimens were taken from 23 patients with DVT and 31 controls.

The intestinal barrier function is a critical defense mechanism in the human body, serving as both the primary target and initiating organ in cases of sepsis. Preserving the integrity of this barrier is essential for preventing complications and diseases, including sepsis and mortality. Despite this importance, the impact of resveratrol on intestinal barrier function remains unclear.
