A magnetic resonance light scattering (RLS) sensor based on the molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) technique was developed for specific recognition of trace quantities of hepatitis A virus (HAV). Through a surface imprinting technique, the virus-magnetic-MIPs (virus-MMIPs) were prepared as the specific identification element, which was based on the effective synthesis of biomimetic polydopamine (PDA) inspired by mussels on the surface of FeO magnetic nanoparticles. The preparation process of the virus-magnetic-MIPs was simple and rapid under an applied magnetic field. The surface of the magnetic-MIP captured viruses through specific recognition in water, which caused changes to the particle size and shape, and subsequently resulted in changes in the intensity of the RLS. The sensor was applied to determine the amount of HAV in the linear concentration range of 0.02-1.40 nmol L, with a low detection limit of 6.2 pmol L, and it was successfully applied for the immediate detection of added HAV from a 2000-fold dilution of human serum. More importantly, the proposed strategy addressed the difficulty of virus-MIP detection in the elution process and it is rapid, easy, sensitive, and eco-friendly.

Introduction: Positionality statements accompanying peer-reviewed publications are increasingly being implemented in academic journals across many disciplines, including psychology. These statements serve as transparent, public acknowledgments of the authors' identities, which can offer valuable insight into the authors' work in the context of their lived experiences and potential biases. However, journal editors and associated staff risk harm by uniformly adopting a policy on positionality statements without consideration of the unintended consequences of implementing such practices.

We examined categorical processing biases in the perception and recognition of facial expressions of emotion across two studies. In both studies, participants first learned to discriminate between two ambiguous facial expressions of emotion selected from the middle of a continuous array of blended expressions (i.e.

Organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) are widely used in agricultural production, posing a great threat to human health and the environment. Given that different OPs present different toxicology and toxicities, identifying individual pesticide residues becomes important for assessing food safety and environmental implications. In this work, a kinetics difference-driven analyte hydrolysis strategy is proposed for the first time and validated to identify -nitrophenyl pesticides by developing an organophosphorus hydrolase-like nanozyme-coded sensor array.

The human cellular cytidine deaminases APOBEC3s (A3s) inhibit virion infectivity factor (Vif)-deficient HIV-1 replication. However, virus-encoded Vifs abolish this defense system by specifically recruiting A3s to an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex to induce their degradation. The highly conserved Vif PPLP motif is critical for the Vif-mediated antagonism of A3s and is believed to be important for Vif multimerization.

Odors are known to entertain a special link with memory: once the meaning of an odor has been learned, it naturally acts as a retrieval cue of the learning context, along with the emotions and behaviors associated with it. The existence of this link has for several years inspired the study of olfactory function in Alzheimer's disease (AD), known for the memory disorders it causes. The aim of this review is to summarize the current scientific knowledge on the almost paradoxical dual role played by odors in the management of AD, as both screening and therapeutic tools.
