    Abstract The use of colloidal nanoparticles suffers from the drawbacks of potential color interference and substrate-induced aggregation. To overcome the limitations, a catalyst was developed by crosslinking Cu-doped carbon dots (Cu-CDs) with chitosan. Cu-CDs with high peroxidase activity were prepared by using a rapid microwave-assisted method. The Cu-CDs containing 6.88% of Cu had an average particle size of 2.25 nm and exhibited 9% of fluorescence quantum yield. The nanozyme/film composite was prepared by crosslinking between the amino groups of Cu-CDs and those of chitosan via a glutaraldehyde linker. A H

    Abstract Boron and nitrogen co-doped carbon dots (B, N-CDs) were fabricated through a simple, one-step hydrothermal reaction of citric acid, boric acid, and tris base. The obtained B, N-CDs exhibit excitation-dependent fluorescence, high quantum yield (QY), biocompatibility, photostability, and aqueous solubility. The QY was substantially increased to 57% by doping boron atoms. Furthermore, the fluorescence intensity of B, N-CDs was temperature-dependent and decreased linearly from 283 to 333 K. The prepared B, N-CDs were used as a fluorescence probe for the detection of

    Abstract Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is one of the biocompatible and biodegradable plastics that can be produced and accumulated as granules inside microorganisms. In this study, a new approach to rapidly quantify a short-chain-length PHA, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), produced from genetically engineered Escherichia coli containing phaCAB is presented. The mass of each bacterial cell was measured using a laser-induced radio frequency (rf) plasma charge detection quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometer (LIRFP CD QIT-MS), and then, the PHB contents were determined by calculating the change in cellular mass. The quantitative results showed that the PHB contents measured by LIRFP CD QIT-MS were consistent with those by reference analysis, gas chromatography (GC). The PHB content of each bacterial sample can be obtained within 20 min from sampling using LIRFP CD QIT-MS while GC analysis takes 2 days. In addition, LIRFP CD QIT-MS does not use any hazardous chemicals in cellular mass quantification as compared to GC. This indicates that LIRFP CD QIT-MS has potential in routine monitoring of PHB production.

    Abstract (1) Background: This meta-analysis assessed the diagnostic accuracy of deep learning model-based osteoporosis prediction using plain X-ray images. (2) Methods: We searched PubMed, Web of Science, SCOPUS, and Google Scholar from no set beginning date to 28 February 2023, for eligible studies that applied deep learning methods for diagnosing osteoporosis using X-ray images. The quality of studies was assessed using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2 criteria. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was used to quantify the predictive performance. Subgroup, meta-regression, and sensitivity analyses were performed to identify the potential sources of study heterogeneity. (3) Results: Six studies were included; the pooled AUROC, sensitivity, and specificity were 0.88 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.85-0.91), 0.81 (95% CI 0.78-0.84), and 0.87 (95% CI 0.81-0.92), respectively, indicating good performance. Moderate heterogeneity was observed. Mega-regression and subgroup analyses were not performed due to the limited number of studies included. (4) Conclusion: Deep learning methods effectively extract bone density information from plain radiographs, highlighting their potential for opportunistic screening. Nevertheless, additional prospective multicenter studies involving diverse patient populations are required to confirm the applicability of this novel technique.

    Abstract Ensuring food safety requires a rapid and reliable method for detecting food-borne pathogens. Mass spectrometry has been demonstrated as a powerful tool to classify pure bacterial species. However, matrix interference from food backgrounds may lead to false results because of the suppression of microbial signals. It is useful to develop a method for bacterial enrichment and marker identification in food samples. Magnetic zirconia nanoparticles were used to concentrate spiked microorganisms from apple juice/lettuce under specific conditions (pH 4.5). Bacterial identification was achieved using nanoLC-MS. Selected reaction monitoring of bacteria-related peptides was applied for the first time to identify bacteria including Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. This study presents an accurate means for bacterial identification in food matrixes using MS. The analysis time is less than 90 min and the minimum concentration of E. coli detected was 5 × 10

    Abstract Sample preparation methods used for genetically modified organisms (GMOs) analysis are often time consuming, require extensive manual manipulation, and result in limited amounts of purified protein, which may complicate the detection of low-abundance GM protein. A robust sample pretreatment method prior to mass spectrometry (MS) detection of the transgenic protein (5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase [CP4 EPSPS]) present in Roundup Ready soya is investigated. Liquid chromatography-multiple reaction monitoring tandem MS (nano LC-MS/MS-MRM) was used for the detection and quantification of CP4 EPSPS. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and concanavalin A (Con A)-immobilized Sepharose 4B were used as selective probes for the separation of the major storage proteins in soybeans. AuNPs that enable the capture of cysteine-containing proteins were used to reduce the complexity of the crude extract of GM soya. Con A-sepharose was used for the affinity capture of β-conglycinin and other glycoproteins of soya prior to enzymatic digestion. The methods enabled the detection of unique peptides of CP4 EPSPS at a level as low as 0.5% of GM soya in MRM mode. Stable-isotope dimethyl labeling was further applied to the quantification of GM soya. Both probes exhibited high selectivity and efficiency for the affinity capture of storage proteins, leading to the quantitative detection at 0.5% GM soya, which is a level below the current European Union's threshold for food labeling. The square correlation coefficients were greater than 0.99. The approach for sample preparation is very simple without the need for time-consuming protein prefractionation or separation procedures and thus presents a significant improvement over existing methods for the analysis of the GM soya protein.

    Abstract We present a sensitive and rapid screening method for the determination of β-lactamase activity of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, by designing a pH-sensitive fluorescent dye-doped mesoporous silica nanoparticle encapsulated with penicillin G as a substrate. When penicillin G was hydrolysed by β-lactamase and converted into penicilloic acid, the acidic environment resulted in fluorescence quenching of the dye. The dye-doped mesoporous nanoparticles not only enhanced the β-lactamase-catalyzed reaction rate but also stablized the substrate, penicillin G, which degrades into penicilloic acid in a water solution without β-lactamase. Twentyfive clinical bacterial samples were tested and the antibiotic resistant and susceptible strains were identified. The proposed method may detect the presence of β -lactamases of clinically relevant samples in less than 1 hour. Moreover, the detection limit of β-lactamase activity was as low as 7.8×10
