Microbial cell factories represent an alternative idea for efficient production of simple phenylpropanoids.
The chalcone-based fluorescent probe gal-HCA favors highly selective detection of β-galactosidase in vitro and in living cells.
A series of NIR xanthene-chalcone fluorophores with large Stokes shifts (>100 nm) were developed for constructing fluorescent probes with a substituted hydroxyl group.
Ti- and Zn-containing nanoparticles from a mineral-based sunscreen are detected and classified against the natural particle background from river water using single-particle ICP-TOFMS and hierarchical clustering analysis.
Heterogeneities among tumor cells significantly contribute towards cancer progression and therapeutic inefficiency. Herein, we discuss recent microfluidic platforms for sorting and profiling of tumor cells for prognostics and personalized therapies.
