Multi-parameter surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors generally have low detection sensitivity due to detection wavelength limitations. We developed a two-parameter SPR sensor for refractive index (RI) and temperature detection by cascading Ag/WO film photonic crystal fiber (PCF) and Ag/MoS film PCF together. By using WO film with a low effective refractive index to prevent oxidation of silver-based PCF and maintain a wider RI sensing channel detection band; at the same time, MoS film with a high effective refractive index is used to modulate the detection range of temperature sensing channel. The detection performance and stability of the two-parameter SPR sensor were verified by software simulation and experiments. The data results indicate that the sensor can perform stable and independent tests during RI and temperature detection. The maximum sensitivity of the sensor within the RI detection range of 1.333 to 1.395 is as high as 6443 nm/RIU; the maximum temperature sensitivity within the temperature detection range of 40 °C∼90 °C is 8.72 nm/°C. This sensor can achieve high-sensitivity RI measurement in a high-temperature environment. This will have broad application prospects in the field of biochemistry.

Copper-based halides have attracted significant attention due to their unique photophysical properties and diverse coordination configurations. However, enhancing water stability and modulating structural transitions in cuprous halide materials remain challenging. In this work, we successfully synthesized three copper(I) halides, (CHP)CuBr (L1, [CHP] = hexyltriphenylphosphonium), (CHP)CuBr (L2), and (CHP)CuI (L3), via solvent volatilization, demonstrating exceptional water stability even after 27 days of submersion.

The integration of dual-mesoporous structures, the construction of heterojunctions, and the incorporation of highly concentrated oxygen vacancies are pivotal for advancing metal oxide-based gas sensors. Nonetheless, achieving an optimal design that simultaneously combines mesoporous structures, precise heterojunction modulation, and controlled oxygen vacancies through a one-step process remains challenging. This study proposes an innovative method for fabricating zinc stannate semiconductors featuring dual-mesoporous structures and tunable oxygen vacancies via a direct solution precursor plasma spray technique.

Human activities increasingly threaten marine ecosystems through rising waste and temperatures. This study investigated the role of plastics as vectors for bacteria and the effects of temperature on the marine sponge . Samples of plastics and sponges were collected during July, August (high-temperature period), and November (lower-temperature period).

Population-based sampling has improved pathogen monitoring in the US swine industry by increasing sensitivity while reducing costs. Postmortem tongue fluids (TF) have emerged as a practical option for monitoring porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in breeding herds, but limited data exist on optimal storage conditions. This study evaluated PRRSV RNA detection via RT-qPCR in TF samples under various storage times, temperatures, and viral loads.

(1) Background: In recent years, the increasing emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogens in pig farms has begun to pose a severe threat to animal welfare and, by extension, public health. In this study, we aimed to explore the biological characteristics and genomic features of bacteriophages that are capable of lysing porcine multidrug-resistant , which was isolated from sewage. In doing so, we provided a reference for phage therapies that can be used to treat multidrug-resistant strains.
