Abstract

An electrochemical method was developed for analyzing PCR amplification through the detection of inorganic phosphates (Pi). This method coupled a microchip to a nanoparticle comprising poly-5,2'-5',2''-terthiophene-3'-carboxylic acid (poly-TTCA)/pyruvate oxidase (PyO) modified microbiosensor. It detects Pi produced from the pyrophosphate (PPi), which is released as a byproduct of PCR. After completion of PCR, PPi is hydrolyzed to Pi by inorganic pyrophosphatase. On the microbiosensor surface, pyruvate was converted to H2O2 by PyO in the presence of Pi and oxygen, and subsequently, the anodic current of enzymatically generated H2O2 was detected at +0.5 V versus Ag/AgCl. The CE-EC analysis was completed within 2 min in a coated channel with 75.0 mm separation length at the field strength of -200 V/cm. Excellent operation stability of poly-TTCA/PyO was observed for a long period of analysis. The reproducibility of the analysis yielded an RSD of 3.4% (n = 22) for the peak areas and 1.8% (n = 22) for the migration times. The sensitivity of the analysis was 0.59 +/- 0.01 nA/cycle with a regression coefficient of 0.971.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
