Abstract: Vaccine development for tuberculosis is a global priority. Our studies using Collaborative Cross (CC) mice show that genetic diversity influences the efficacy of BCG, the most widely used TB vaccine. BCG vaccination of CC042 mice reduces their lung bacillary burden and increases their survival following low-dose aerosol Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection ...

Abstract: Herein, we present the development and evaluation of a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) sensor for the sensitive and selective detection of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in aqueous environments. MIP coatings over electrochemically active electrodes enable NDMA detection with a notably low detection limit of 1.16 ppb. Our findings demonstrate that the ...

Agglutination of liquid Janus emulsions creates optical signals that can be detected and quantified. This study reports the detection and quantitation of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) using emulsions functionalized at the water-organic interface with engineered hyperthermophilic affinity proteins (rcSso7d) derived from ...
