Summary: This report introduces a method for enhancing the sensitivity of chemifluorescence-based ELISA, using photooxidation-induced fluorescence amplification (PIFA). PIFA utilizes autocatalytic photooxidation to amplify the fluorescent product, improving detection sensitivity. The method requires minimal modifications to the fluorescence reader and is compatible with conventional ELISA assays.

Summary: In this study, the prevalence of Coxiella burnetii infection in macropod populations was investigated. A phase-specific indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) was modified and optimized to estimate the infection rate. The results showed that the IFA had high diagnostic sensitivity and specificity. Meanwhile, the commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) showed low sensitivity.

Summary: This study compared the serum ferritin levels measured by ELISA, Cobas e411, and Cobas Integra 400 methods. The results showed no significant difference between ELISA and Cobas e411, while the values from Cobas Integra 400 were significantly higher. Cobas e411 and Cobas Integra 400 methods demonstrated higher sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. Further investigations with larger samples are needed to determine interchangeability.

Summary: This research explores a novel strategy to enhance the catalytic activity of enzymes, leading to the development of a sensitive ELISA method. By utilizing a chemical staining strategy, the catalytic activity of horseradish peroxidase was directly improved, and a new CS-ELISA method for detecting clenbuterol was established. The CS-ELISA exhibited a 2-fold improvement in sensitivity and linear range compared to conventional ELISA, and demonstrated good applicability in detecting clenbuterol in pork tenderloin samples.

Summary: In this study, a peroxidase-mimicking nanozyme-improved enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed using the bimetallic PdRu nanozyme as a catalytic carrier for detecting Escherichia coli O157:H7. The PdRu nanozyme exhibited high catalytic activity and affinity with antibody, ensuring successful establishment of a novel colorimetric biosensor. The PdRu-based ELISA achieved ultrasensitive detection sensitivity and satisfactory specificity and reproducibility, making it suitable for bioassays and clinical diagnostics.

Summary: This study prepared polyclonal antibodies to peach gum and used biotin-streptavidin-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (BA-ELISA) to identify peach gum with high sensitivity and specificity. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect binders in the Forbidden City and the Dazu Rock Carvings. The results revealed diverse binders in the Dazu Rock Carvings and the coexistence of collagen and peach gum in most samples of the Forbidden City. This study demonstrates the high efficiency of ELISA in analyzing binders in ancient paintings.

Summary: The discovery of a grooming set in an ancient Han tomb in Shandong, China, provides insights into the use of cosmetics by non-elite individuals, highlighting the role of cosmetics in reflecting social cultures. Utilizing various analytical methods, the study identified one cosmetic as a lead hydroxycarbonate powder likely used for whitening, and the other as a flesh-colored mica powder containing refined animal fat and plant extract. The findings suggest that the use of cosmetics had spread from the elite to the non-elite in ancient China, indicating the development of a regional cosmetic industry.

Summary: The Zenghou Yi Tomb from 433 BC is an important archaeological find from the early Warring States Period in China. The tomb contained a significant amount of lacquerware, with red, black, and yellow patterns. Analysis of the lacquered inner coffin and zither indicate that the lacquer samples have multilayered structures and contained added eggs and oil. The differences in pigments used for the red, black, and yellow patterns may explain the rarity of yellow painted lacquerware from early periods.
