TL;DR: A simple strategy based on unmodified AuNPs and specific Zn(2+) binding peptide is exploited here as a new label-free mechanism for the rapid colorimetric Zn (2+) assay.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple, label-free, and selective device for noninvasive cancer cell identification by sensitive sialic acid (SA) detection using the organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs), which is based on screen-printed carbon source and drain electrodes on flexible substrates and poly (3-aminophenylboronic acid) (PABA)-modified glass carbon (GC) gate electrodes.

TL;DR: A simple turn-on homogenous method for DNA detection has been developed based on the polyionic nanoscale complex of ScGFP/DNA and toehold strand displacement and shows high sensitivity and potent ability to detect single-base mismatch.

TL;DR: Fluorescence analysis of lncRNA PCA3 at low-picomolar concentrations in vitro as well as sensitive live cell imaging of lNCRNAPCA3 in the nucleus of androgen receptor-positive LNCaP prostate cancer cells were achieved, providing a versatile strategy for the monitoring of nucleic acid biomarkers in the nuclear nucleus of living cells.

TL;DR: The real-time quantification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa concentrations using a wireless magnetoelastic sensing device facilitates aseptic operation, and makes the sensor platform ideally suited for monitoring bacteria from within, for example, sealed food containers.
