Regular monitoring of malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for the management of uncomplicated malaria in healthcare facilities is a key factor in improving diagnostic quality and ensuring better case management. This study aimed to assess the performance of five RDTs (Standard Q Malaria P.f Ag and Standard Q Malaria P.

Household and personal care chemicals (HPCCs) constitute a significant component of everyday products, with their global usage on the rise. HPCCs are eventually discharged into municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). However, the behaviors of HPCCs inside the Bacillus Bioreactor (BBR) process, including their prevalence, fate, and elimination mechanisms, remain underexplored.

Rapid and sensitive dengue non-structural protein 1 (NS1) detection assay is essential for the treatment of disease and currently releases high medical cost burdens. To address the limitations of conventional LFIA strips, we have developed an improved Sup35NM-Z-based LFIA that immobilizes antibodies on cellulose membranes in an orientated manner to increase the sensitivity of LFIA strips. A dual-functional Sup35NM nanofibril was fabricated by fusion with the antibody binding domain; resultant nanofibril from the amyloid Sup35NM was sprayed on the T-line to orientate the capture antibody and produces fluorescence signals.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on evaluating a new fluorescence-based rapid test for measuring TSH levels, comparing results from three different blood collection methods: fingerstick, venepuncture whole-blood, and serum.
- Finecare™ testing showed high sensitivity (90.5% for serum; 95.2% for whole-blood) and specificity (96.3% for serum; 97.5% for whole-blood) when compared to a reliable reference method, CobasPro-c503.
- Excellent agreement and strong correlation between Finecare™ results and CobasPro-c503 indicate the potential effectiveness of this POCT for diagnosing thyroid issues in various sample types.
