Reference values for creatinine in serum were established using a fully enzymatic method, adapted to a discontinuous analyzer. Our reference group included 250 females and 215 males (blood donors, hospital staff and patients) aged 18-70 years. Up to 60 years, creatinine concentration did not depend on age, but there was a significant difference between the creatinine concentrations of women and men. We propose reference ranges for creatinine in serum (95% range) of 44-80 mu mol/l for women and of 44-97 mu mol/l for men.

The antibiotic tetracycline (TC) is an emerging pollutant frequently detected in various environments. Although enzymatic remediation is a promising strategy for mitigating TC contamination, the availability of effective TC-degrading enzymes remains limited, and their mechanisms and applications are not fully understood. This study developed a comprehensive TC-degrading enzyme library from the gut microbiome of the highly TC-resistant saprophagous insect, black soldier fly larvae (BSFL), using an integrated metagenomic and comparative metatranscriptomic approach, identifying 105 potential novel TC-degradation genes.

Prussian Blue (PB) is commonly incorporated into screen-printed enzymatic devices since it enables the determination of the enzymatically produced hydrogen peroxide at low potentials. Inkjet printing is gaining popularity in the development of electrochemical sensors as a substitute for screen printing. This work presents a fully inkjet-printed graphene-Prussian Blue platform, which can be paired with oxidase enzymes to prepare a biosensor of choice.
