Extracting and detecting viral RNA in wastewater has proven to be a rapid cost-effective approach for community-level monitoring during the recent global Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic. Various sample concentrating methods, such as centrifugal ultrafiltration, have been utilized SARS-CoV-2 detection studies. However, freeze drying, promising technique commonly used preserving various biological samples, yet explored this field. This study compared...
The lack of accuracy in the current prostate specific antigen (PSA) test for cancer (PCa) screening causes around 60–75% unnecessary biopsies. Therefore, alternative diagnostic methods that have better and can prevent over-diagnosis PCa are needed. Researchers examined various potential biomarkers PCa, those fatty acids (FAs) markers received special attention due to their role metabolomics. It has been noted metabolism prefers FAs over glucose substrates continued rapid proliferation....
The reaction of Fe2(mes)4 with the super-bulky amidines and guanidines HLAr*-R (LAr*-R = [(Ar*N)2C(R)]−, Ar* 2,6-bis(diphenylmethyl)-4-tert-butylphenyl), R Me (LAr*-Me), tBu (LAr*-tBu), Ph (LAr*-Ph), NiPr2 (LAr*-iPr2N), Pip (LAr*-Pip)) gives access to three-coordinate iron–mesityl complexes (LAr*-R)Fe(mes) only where LAr*-R LAr*-Me, LAr*-Ph, or LAr*-Pip. Subsequent protonolysis N-atom transfer reagent Hdbabh (Hdbabh 2,3:5,6-dibenzo-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene) is limited in success,...
Perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs) are a significant group of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs). They persistent organic chemicals manufactured for their resistance to heat, water, stains. PFCAs ubiquitous in the environment, particularly surface water wastewater, because they widely used everyday consumer products. This contamination poses risk drinking supplies human health, necessitating sensitive effective analytical methods. Traditional liquid chromatography–tandem mass...
Clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) comprises the majority, approximately 70-80%, of cancer cases and often remains asymptomatic until incidentally detected during unrelated abdominal imaging or at advanced stages. Currently, standardized screening tests for are lacking, which presents challenges in disease management improving patient outcomes. This study aimed to identify ccRCC-specific volatile organic compounds (VOCs) urine ccRCC-positive patients develop a urinary VOC-based diagnostic model.
Early detection of prostate cancer is critical for successful treatment and survival. However, current diagnostic methods such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing digital rectal examination (DRE) have limitations in accuracy, specificity, sensitivity. Recent research suggests that urinary volatile organic compounds (VOCs) could serve potential biomarkers diagnosis. In this study, urine samples from 337 PCa-positive 233 PCa-negative patients were collected to develop a diagnosis model....
Fluorotelomer alcohols (FTOHs) are one of the major classes Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). While some common PFAS voluntarily phased out due to their potential toxicity, persistence, ubiquitous presence in environment, FTOHs precursors perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCAs), which used as alternatives conventional PFAS. Consequently, commonly detected water matrices, eventually indicate contamination drinking supplies thus a source human exposure. Even though studies have been...
