The presence of lead ion (Pb) in groundwater poses a serious risk to human health, even at low levels. Therefore, it is essential to develop a new strategy for both selective detection and effective removal of Pb in groundwater, which has been rarely reported. Here, we developed a multi-functional chitosan-based fluorescent sensing membrane (CM-L/CG) by using a casting method for the sensitive/selective detection and removal of Pb in groundwater. The CM-L/CG membrane can be integrated into the portable laser-induced fluorescence spectrometer (LIFs) for on-site detection of Pb, with a low detection limit of 1.02 ppb. Moreover, the CM-L/CG membrane demonstrates an outstanding 99 % removal rate and an adsorption capacity of 247.6 mg g for Pb and the adsorption process is mainly controlled by chemisorption. Importantly, the CM-L/CG membrane enables the real-time and on-site detection of Pb in groundwater samples via a smartphone-based RGB (Red Green Blue) color analysis-assisted portable platform and portable LIFs-based platform, achieving acceptable results. This dual-functional fluorescent sensing membrane represents a breakthrough in environmental monitoring technology, offering a comprehensive solution for sensitive detection and efficient removal of Pb from groundwater.

We report a low-cost, portable biosensor composed of an aptamer-functionalized nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide (NAAO) membrane and a commercial microcontroller chip-based impedance reader suitable for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)-based sensing. The biosensor consists of two chambers separated by an aptamer-functionalized NAAO membrane, and the impedance reader is utilized to monitor transmembrane impedance changes. The biosensor is utilized to detect amodiaquine molecules using an amodiaquine-binding aptamer (OR7)-functionalized membrane.

The sigma-1 receptor (Sig-1R) has emerged as a significant target in the realm of pain management and has been the subject of extensive research. Nonetheless, its specific function in inflammatory pain within dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons remains inadequately elucidated. This study utilized whole-cell patch clamp techniques, single-cell real-time PCR, and immunohistochemistry to examine the influence of Sig-1R on inflammatory pain induced by complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) in a rat model.
