The GTPase Ran is a key regulator of molecular transport through nuclear pore complex (NPC) channels. To analyze the role of Ran in its nuclear transport function, we used several quantitative fluorescence techniques to follow the distribution and dynamics of
The detection of mercury in biological systems and its imaging is of highly importance. In this work, a ratiometric fluorescence sensor is developed based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) with N-acetyl-L-cysteine functionalized quantum dots (NAC-QDs) as donor and Rhodamine

This study highlights a crucial but often overlooked consideration during sample preparation involving surface-adsorbing species: the competition between analyte adsorption and analyte diffusion/mixing strongly affects the distribution of analytes throughout the sample. In cases of fast analyte adsorption, we argue

The role that mast cells play during contact hypersensitivity (CS) response is unclear because some studies have shown that mast cell-deficient mice have relatively intact CS responses whereas others have shown opposing results. Mast cells secrete a wide range of
The aptamer (S2.2)-guided Ag-Au nanostructures (aptamer-Ag-Au) have been synthesized by photoreduction and validated by ultraviolet-visible light (UV-vis) spectra and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images. Differential interference contrast (DIC), fluorescence, and TEM images, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra indicated that
