Summary: Acetaldehyde is an important mediator in the metabolism of plants and animals, but its abnormal level can cause biological problems. Detecting its concentration is highly demanded due to its significance in environmental samples and biofluids. This study introduces a novel colorimetric method for rapid and sensitive detection of acetaldehyde using different AgNPs with various morphologies. By utilizing the redox reaction between AgNPs, TMB solution, and analytes, a color change detectable by the naked eye occurs in 15 minutes. UV spectrophotometry is further employed for quantitative analysis. A paper-based microfluidic substrate prepared with an iron mold and liquid paraffin is utilized as a low-cost, accessible, and rapid detection tool. Different types of AgNPs exhibit different lower limits of quantification (LLOQ). AgNPs-Cit and AgNPrs can identify acetaldehyde in a linear range of 10(-7) to 10 M and an LLOQ of 10(-7) M. AgNWs show the best color change activity with a linear range of 10(-5) to 10 M and the lowest diagnostic limit of 10(-5) M. Lastly, analysis of human biofluids as real samples is successfully performed using this system.

Summary: In this study, the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of gold nanoparticles produced by laser ablation in liquid (LAL) and their agglomeration induced by halides after LAL were investigated. The concentration of bromide was found to affect the aggregation process, leading to a red-shift and broadening of the LSPR. Higher temperatures suppressed the aggregation process, while lower temperatures promoted it. The use of heavier halides like iodide resulted in complex nanoparticle architectures. The disruption of aggregates by re-irradiating the colloid was also observed.

Summary: fi-D-Glucuronidase (GUS) plays a crucial role in clinical treatment assessment and environmental monitoring. However, current GUS detection tools have limitations in terms of pH continuity and diffusion. In this study, a novel GUS recognition tool called ERNathG was developed, which addressed these issues by utilizing pH-matching and endoplasmic reticulum-anchoring strategies. ERNathG enabled continuous and anchored GUS detection without pH adjustment, demonstrating superior properties compared to commonly used commercial molecules.
