The compositional and structural analysis of GAGs is challenging due to their heterogenous structures. Strong anion exchange (SAX) HPLC can aid in the compositional analysis of GAGs and can separate complex mixtures based on charge and degree of sulfation. Herein we describe the digestion and release of GAGs from tissue, and the compositional analysis using SAX-HPLC.

Setting up a global SARS-CoV-2 surveillance system requires an understanding of how virus isolation and propagation practices, use of animal or human sera, and different neutralisation assay platforms influence assessment of SARS-CoV-2 antigenicity. In this study, with the contribution of 15 independent laboratories across all WHO regions, we carried out a controlled analysis of neutralisation assay platforms using the first WHO International Standard for antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (source: NIBSC). Live virus isolates (source: WHO BioHub or individual labs) or spike plasmids (individual labs) for pseudovirus production were used to perform neutralisation assays using the same serum panels.

The tick-borne encephalitis virus is a pathogen endemic to northern Europe and Asia, transmitted through bites from infected ticks. It is a member of the family and possesses a positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genome encoding a polypeptide that is processed into seven non-structural and three structural proteins, including the envelope (E) protein. The glycosylation of the E protein, involving a single N-linked glycan at position N154, plays a critical role in viral infectivity and pathogenesis.

The use of Raman spectroscopy, particularly surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), offers a powerful tool for analyzing biochemical changes in biofluids. This study aims to assess the modifications occurring in saliva collected from patients before and after exposure to cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and computed tomography (CT) imaging. SERS analysis revealed significantly amplified spectra in post-imaging samples compared to pre-imaging samples, with pronounced intensification of thiocyanate and opiorphin bands, which, together with proteins, dominated the spectra.

Multispectral imaging (MSI) enables the acquisition of spatial and spectral image-based information in one process. Spectral scene information can be used to determine the characteristics of materials based on reflection or absorption and thus their material compositions. This work focuses on so-called multi aperture imaging, which enables a simultaneous capture (snapshot) of spectrally selective and spatially resolved scene information.

This paper presents an effective three-dimensional (3D) surface reconstruction technique aimed at profiling composite surfaces with both specular and diffuse reflectance. Three-dimensional measurements based on fringe projection techniques perform well on diffuse reflective surfaces; however, when the measurement targets contain both specular and diffuse components, the efficiency of fringe projection decreases. To address this issue, the proposed technique integrates digital holography into the fringe projection setup, enabling the simultaneous capture of both specular and diffuse reflected light in the same optical path for full-field surface profilometry.
