In the present work, Ag nanoparticles were added to polyurea coating in order to improve its antibacterial and electrochemical properties in sulfide-reducing bacteria-containing media. To this end, Ag nano-powder was mixed ...

Recognition of misused stimulant drugs has always been a hot topic from a medical and judicial perspective. Methamphetamine (MAMP) is an addictive and illegal drug that profoundly affects the central nervous system. Like ...

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a significant health problem owing to its high mortality rate. Heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (h-FABP) is an important biomarker in the diagnosis of AMI. In this work, an ...

This work reports the electrochemical detection of bisphenol A (BPA) using a novel and sensitive electrochemical sensor based on the Cu functionalized SBA-15 like periodic mesoporous organosilica-ionic liquid composite ...

In this study, a new efficient resin-based material has been synthesized through the surface modification of silica by functionalized calix[4]arene and applied for the adsorption of metal ions from aqueous media. The ...

The diagnosis of disease and the monitoring of patient in cancer research are related to biomarkers. Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) as the main tumor biomarker is necessary for digestive tract associated cancers. In ...

Defect-assisted nonlinear absorption (NLA) and optical limiting (OL) performance of hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets (h-BNNS) in aqueous suspension and in polymethyl methacrylate matrix (PMMA) as nanocomposite films were ...

A sensitive and fast sandwich-type electrochemical SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) nucleocapsid protein immunosensor was prepared based on bismuth tungstate/bismuth sulfide composite (Bi2WO6/Bi2S3) as electrode platform and graphitic ...

A novel molecularly imprinted electrochemical biosensor for glucose detection is reported based on a hierarchical N-rich carbon conductive-coated TNO structure (TNO@NC ). Firstly, TNO@NC was fabricated by a novel ...

Organophosphorus pesticides are widely utilized in agricultural fertility. However, their long-term accumulations result in serious damage to human health and ecological balance. Paraoxon (PAR) can block acetylcholinesterase ...
