Sarcosine level in serum is of important clinical significance in distinguishing prostate cancer. This work depicts an amperometric sarcosine biosensor with good anti-interference performance by electro-codepositing manganese phosphate, 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) and indole-6-carboxylic acid (IA) on the glass carbon electrode. The prepared sarcosine biosensor has a wide linear detection range (1–55 μM) with a low detection limit of 0.11 μM. This work provides an anti-interference approach by controlling the surface charge density of the biosensor to sarcosine sensing, which has great potential to be used as point of care testing (POCT) device for the rapid detection of prostate cancer biomarkers.

Phthalate esters (PAEs) pose prominent ecological risks owing to their multiplex toxicity potentials and ubiquitous detection in the environment. Therefore, this study aims to prioritize the individual and mixtures of six PAEs based on their toxicological implications using in vitro and vivo models exposed at environmentally relevant concentrations. Results were further confirmed using in silico Combination index (CI) and Independent action (IA), and molecular docking models. Among PAEs, DEHP revealed prominent in vitro/vivo toxicity followed by DEP, DBP, and DMP. Importantly, binary mixtures particularly C2-C6 and C11-C15 exhibited greater developmental toxicity, apoptosis, and perturbed the HPG pathway. The CI and IA models forecasted antagonistic and additive effects at Fa = 0.5 and Fa = 0.9 using in vitro Acinetobacter sp. Tox2. Conversely, in zebrafish, the IA model predicted mixture effects in the following order: additive > synergistic > antagonistic on the regulation of the HPG pathway, which was consistent with experimental results from Acridine Orange (AO) staining and apoptosis gene expression. Molecular docking for estrogen receptors (ERα, ERβ) revealed the highest binding energy scores for DEHP, compared to other PAEs. In short, our findings confirm that individual and mixtures of PAEs behave as xenoestrogens in the freshwater ecosystem with DEHP as a priority compound.

Imatinib is the tyrosine kinase inhibitor of choice for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia and gastrointestinal stromal tumors. However, imatinib has drawbacks such as drug resistance and significant differences in pharmacokinetics within patients. Therefore, a colloidal gold-based immunochromatographic assay (CG-IA) was developed for measuring and monitoring imatinib in human serum. An imatinib derivative containing carboxyl groups was used for the synthesis of the immunogen, and 4-(4-methyl-1-piperazinylmethyl) benzoic acid was selected as the hapten for the heterologous coating antigen. Next, a highly sensitive and specific monoclonal antibody (mAb), 2F7 was screened for the construction of a CG-IA, with an IC 50 value of 0.091 ng/mL. For the qualification of imatinib in human serum, the visual limit of detection (vLOD) and cut-off values of the CG-IA were 2 and 20 ng/mL, respectively. For quantitative detection, the calculated LOD value of the CG-IA was 0.068 ng/mL, with a linearity range of 1.004 and 23.087 ng/mL. The recovery rate of spiked serum samples was between 88.24 % and 104.75 %. In addition, the concentration of imatinib in the serum samples from 10 patients was detected by CG-IA and revealed a good correlation with those from LC-MS/MS. These results indicated that the developed gold-based paper sensor could become an effective tool for the rapid monitoring of imatinib in human serum samples.

To overcome major challenges of non-specific protein adsorption on nanoparticles for nanosensing and nanodiagnosis, an efficient method for robust chemical modification was developed to achieve excellent specific biorecognition and long-term stability in complex biomedia. This method is demonstrated by a highly specific and sensitive immunoassay (IA), using superparamagnetic nanospheres (NSs) with high magnetite content. The non-specific protein adsorption on the NSs was suppressed dramatically when modified with dual functional poly(carboxybetaine methacrylate) (polyCBMA) via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) and chemically grafted with antibodies of the β subunit of human chorionic gonadotrop (anti-β-hCG). The response to hCG of IA NSs with polyCBMA coatings was highly consistent in either phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) or 50% fetal bovine serum (FBS), which is far less variable than the response of the IA NSs without polyCBMA coatings. After all, a very robust platform for IA NSs with excellent specific biorecognition was obtained. It is expected that this method for nanoparticle modification could be widely used in ultrasensitive nanosensing and nanodiagnosis in the future.

The aroma characteristics of Pu-erh tea were studied in this work. A total of 117 volatile compounds were identified by HS-SPME combined with GC–TOF/MS, of which 29 active aroma compounds were identified by olfactometry. The active aroma compounds of Pu-erh tea were analyzed by intensity aroma (IA), aroma extraction dilution (AEDA), sensory quantification value (MF), detection frequency (DFA) and odor activity value (OAV). 24, 21 and 23 active aroma components were identified by DFA, AEDA and OAV, while 20 by IA and MF. Recombination of the obtained active aroma components indicated that OAV method was best for determining the active aroma compounds as the aroma profile of OAV recombination model was the most similar to that of Pu-erh tea sample. Omission test of the OAV recombination model furtherly identified 19 characteristic active aroma compounds of Pu-erh tea, and linalool, 1,2,3-trimenthoxybenzebe, 1,2,4-trimethoxybenzene and ɑ-ionone were the key characteristic active aromatic compounds.
