In this paper, we demonstrate the novel use of poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene) (PEDOT) nanoparticle as a very effective fluorescent sensing platform for the detection of nucleic acid sequences ...

These novel luminescent labels should significantly enhance the sensitivity of all type of nucleic acid hybridization probes, and could dramatically improve the detection limit of other biopolymers ...

As a postdoc, Komor found a way to achieve gene-editing with higher efficiencies and a lower incidence of indels by avoiding ...

The question of how life could have emerged is one of the most long-standing mysteries in science. In a new study, the ...

A Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) research team has developed a catalytic enantioselective type II ...

Microbiology is all about studying the tiny world of germs, bacteria, viruses, and more. Scientists use abbreviations to keep ...

Phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) method has been popular and powerful for characterizing soil microbial communities over decades. However, little is known about efficiencies of acidic vs. alkaline ...

Then, the developed method proved to be robust for quantification of CUR and MEL in the samples. Physicochemical properties and curcumin (CUR) and melatonin (MEL) loading of uncoated (NE CUR/MEL) and ...

Two computational models, Simulating WAve till SHore (SWASH) and DualSPHysics, with different computational costs and capabilities have been hybridized in this work. SWASH is a time-domain wave model ...
