Background: Indocyanine green (ICG) is a near-infrared fluorescent dye widely used for intraoperative navigation during liver surgeries because of its non-radioactive nature, high safety, and minimal impact on liver function. However, variability in its dosage and concentration and its low imaging success rates have limited its widespread application. To address these issues, we developed a novel ICG-human serum albumin (ICG-HSA) complex to enhance fluorescence visualization during laparoscopic anatomical liver resection.

Advanced ovarian cancer with peritoneal metastasis is challenging to treat. Limited tumor delivery and penetration of the therapeutics to deep tumor regions are significant barriers to effective treatment. The rising radiopharmaceuticals offer hopes for patients through targeted delivery.

A geopolymer waste form has become a suitable approach for the immobilization of the volatile technetium (Tc) due to the low curing temperature (<60 °C). However, the low retention and the high mobility of the anionic technetium (TcO) remain challenging due to the charge repulsion stemming from the negative charges of the geopolymer surface and the anionic TcO. Herein, a geopolymer composite containing sulfidized nanoscale zerovalent iron (S-nZVI) was developed to reductively immobilize ReO (used as a non-radioactive surrogate for TcO).

This study reports the successful replacement of uranyl-based stains by either sodium phosphotungstate or ammonium molybdate in negative-staining electron microscopy. Using apoferritin as a test specimen, it is demonstrated that in combination with a facile on-grid fixation step, both stains yield comparable images to uranyl formate. Subsequently, using β-galactosidase, it is shown that both stains can also successfully be employed for single-particle analysis, yielding virtually indistinguishable results from uranyl formate.

Background: Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is an important cancer diagnostic staging procedure. Conventional SLNB procedures with Tc radiotracers and scintigraphy are constrained by tracer half-life and, in some cases, insufficient image resolution. Here, we explore an alternative magnetic (nonradioactive) image-guided SLNB procedure.
