Massive viral outbreaks draw attention to viruses that have not been thoroughly studied or
understood. In recent decades, microfluidic chips, known as “lab-on-a-chip”, appears as a …

Development of fast and sensitive sensors for glucose determination is important in food
industry, clinic diagnostics, biotechnology and many other areas. In these years, considerable …

Rapid, efficient and accurate nucleic acid molecule detection is important in the screening
of diseases and pathogens, yet remains a limiting factor at point of care (POC) treatment. …

Cytosolic sulfotransferase (SULT)-mediated sulfation plays an essential role in the detoxification
of bile acids and is necessary to avoid pathological conditions, such as cholestasis, …

Introduction Breast cancer is the second most common cause of death for women behind
lung cancer and the most common cause of cancer deaths for women aged 45–55 years old (…

Point-of-care (POC) testing offers rapid diagnostic results. However, the quantification of current
methods is performed using standard curves and external references, and not direct and …

Digital polymerase chain reaction (dPCR) circumventing the external calibration and potentially

The pregnane X receptor (PXR) was isolated as a xenosensor regulating xenobiotic responses.
In this study, we show that PXR plays an endobiotic role by impacting lipid homeostasis. …

A new azine-linked covalent organic framework, ACOF-1, was synthesized by condensation
of hydrazine hydrate and 1,3,5-triformylbenzene under solvothermal conditions. ACOF-1 …

3-Propanediol (1,3-PD) was produced by Klebsiella pneumoniae using crude glycerol
obtained from biodiesel production. The 1,3-PD concentration of 51.3 g/l −1 on crude glycerol …
