Quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor materials, with a size range between 1–10 nm, showcasing unique size-dependent physical and chemical properties. Such properties have potentiated their use in areas like medical imaging and biosensing. Herei...

This study focuses on addressing the challenges associated with doxorubicin (DOX), an anthracycline chemotherapeutic widely used in cancer treatment. Despite its efficacy, DOX is linked to severe side effects that limit its clinical applications. Nov...

Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) technology serves a significant role as a simple and rapid biosensor in the detection of influenza viruses. The focus of this study is the development of a rapid and convenient screening method for influenza B virus (I...

Optical hydrogen sensors offer high sensitivity, high accuracy, and non-invasive sensing capabilities, making them promising devices in various fields, including the construction of hydrogen fuel cells, storage and transportation, and aerospace. Howe...

MicroRNA-21 is a potential cancer biomarker that is highly expressed in many cancer cells. Therefore, it is important to perform highly sensitive detection of miRNA-21. In this study, we designed a surface plasmon resonance imaging (SPRi) sensor base...

This study synthesizes Ni-doped perovskite-structured LaFeO3 composite materials via a one-step hydrothermal method, characterizes the morphology and structure of the materials, and tests their gas sensing performance. The test results show that comp...

X-ray diffraction (XRD) is extensively used in archaeometric investigation. Herein, we provide a novel XRD spectrum-based untargeted strategy for the classification of ancient painted pottery for various dynasties. It was accomplished using the origi...

Silicon nanotubes (Si NTs) have a unique structure among the silicon nanostructure family, which is useful for diverse applications ranging from therapeutics to lithium storage/recycling. Their well-defined structure and high surface area make them i...

In this paper, we report on the solvothermal preparation and detailed characterization of pristine and intentionally doped zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) nanocrystals (NCs, ~5 nm) with Eu3+ or Ti4+/Eu3+ ions using alkoxide precursors. The results indicated...

17β-estradiol (E2), a vital female sex hormone, plays a crucial role in female reproductive cycles and secondary sexual characteristics. The quantification of E2 concentration in human blood and urine samples is essential because a deviation fro...
